Tottenham’s game is considered better without Harry Kane
By db-admin
DBasia.news – Tottenham Hotspur’s game is considered better without the presence of the star, Harry Kane. The England striker is still on the table until the fifth week of the Premier League.
Tottenham fell at home to Chelsea in the Premier League last weekend. The Lilywhites were mercilessly beaten three goals without reply.
This is Tottenham’s second straight defeat in the Premier League this season. The London club previously fell 0-3 at Crystal Palace headquarters.
Harry Kane is the most highlighted figure in the Tottenham Hotspur team. The 28-year-old striker was sluggish when his team needed goals from him.
Kane has made four appearances in the 2021/2022 Premier League, having missed the first week. The Premier League’s top scorer last season was still unable to score a single goal against the opponent’s goal.
Kane’s performance has been heavily criticized by former Tottenham player Jamie O’Hara. He considered Kane’s presence to slow down the Lilywhites’ game.
“It’s difficult for me because Harry Kane is Mr. Tottenham, but I saw his body language and the way he played and he didn’t do well,” O’Hara told TalkSPORT.
“I kind of enjoyed Spurs at the start of the season when he wasn’t playing. I know that sounds bad because he’s a great player and he’s someone you need in your team, but he came back into the team and we couldn’t win.”
“When [Steven] Bergwijn, [Lucas] Moura and [Heung-min] Son were up front, we sat down, we calmed down, we absorbed the pressure and tried to attack the team on the counter-attack. Harry Kane is back and he is trying to do everything.
O’Hara also highlighted Kane’s many actions down to the middle sector. In fact, Kane’s energy is actually needed more in the Tottenham Hotspur attack line.
“Sometimes he plays as a defensive midfielder! They are too much, we need you to play up front and where anything can happen,” he said.
“I feel like he’s slowing things down for us at the moment. You can’t criticize him for what he’s done for the club, but at the moment he’s not playing very well for us,” Jamie O’Hara said of Harry Kane.
