Tottenham Hotspur interim manager Ryan Mason has praised star striker Harry Kane and thinks that the England international is still underrated.

Mason has told Football.London that not enough is said about how good Tottenham and England international striker Kane is “from a technical point of view”.

The Englishman made the comments about Kane after Tottenham’s 1-0 win against Crystal Palace at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in the Premier League on Saturday.

It was the 29-year-old who scored the only goal of the match.

Kane has now scored 26 goals in the Premier League this season.

Mason said about Kane: “Yeah, I mean Harry Kane, I think we can sit here all day and speak about Harry.

“Naturally people see the goals, the records. But probably what doesn’t get touched upon enough is the individual brilliance from a technical point of view.

“Most importantly the team player, the humility. He’s humble, he works hard, he fights for the team. He’s recovering, he’s working back.

“He’s an example for any young player to see a top player and how to act. We’re very lucky to have him, we know that, we feel it every day.”

World class

In our opinion, Harry Kane is a world-class striker and is one of the best players ever to have featured in the Premier League.

There is a very good chance that Kane will end up as the top scorer of all time in the Premier League.

That would be something.

What is remarkable about Kane is that he can operate as a number 10 as well and still score.

The striker is very unselfish and is not just about scoring goals himself.

As Mason has noted, Kane works hard for the team and does his best to win matches rather than just score goals.
