Roy Keane has given his take on Tottenham Hotspur striker Harry Kane’s performance against Thomas Tuchel’s Chelsea at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium this evening, as quoted on Sky Sports Premier League (6:35pm, September 18, 2021).
The former Manchester United midfielder was not impressed by the body language of Kane in the London derby.
Spurs went down 3-0 to Chelsea at home in the Premier League this evening.
All the three goals came in the second half.
Keane said on Sky Sports Premier League (6:35pm, September 18, 2021): “Kane’s body language, his performance today, Oh my goodness. I was pretty angry watching Spurs today.”
Kane has not been at his best so far this season, and the England international striker struggled to play well against Chelsea in the London derby today.
The 28-year-old spent a lot of time in deep positions working hard for the ball.
The England international could not really put the Chelsea defence under pressure, except that one time when he tested goalkeeper Kepa with a fierce drive.
Kane took two shots and one was on target, had a pass accuracy of 75%, won two headers, took 43 touches, attempted one dribble, made two clearances, and put in two crosses.
The Spurs striker did work hard for the team, but head coach Nuno should have asked him to be in and around the penalty area more instead of dropping deep.
