Tottenham Hotspur striker Harry Kane has been voted England Men’s Player of the Year for the second year in a row.

The Spurs ace enjoyed a stellar 2018 as he found the net eight times in 12 Three Lions appearances and helped the nation reach its first World Cup semi-final in 28 years.

In addition, his six goals at Russia 2018 made him only the second Englishman – after Tottenham alumnus Gary Lineker – to claim the World Cup Golden Boot.

The England captain also scored the decisive goal to send Gareth Southgate’s charges through to the inaugural UEFA Nations League finals this summer.

Tottenham’s Twitter account proudly tweeted about Kane’s award on Friday:

Unsurprisingly, some Spurs fans replied with glee at seeing one of their own recognised so handsomely:

Some others, meanwhile, couldn’t help but take the opportunity to have a dig at fans of rival clubs (mostly Liverpool):

With Spurs and Liverpool both in the hunt for the Premier League title along with reigning champions Manchester City, it looks as though the rivalry between the two challengers is building nicely.

In this instance it’s a point to the Lilywhites in the battle but who will win the war at the end of the season?
