2. Harry Kane is irritated

There’s no one at Tottenham who is more irate with the way the West Brom match ended than striker Harry Kane. He’ll be determined to get his club back on the right track with three points in this one.

It’s really a culmination of things for the England striker. He’s been criticized mercilessly for claiming a goal that was his by countless of morons on social media. He’s also had his health questioned by thousands of doctors on the internet. He’ll want nothing more than to score a hat trick just to change the conversation.

To do so he’ll need to find success against a very good central defensive partnership. In particular, Jamaal Lascelles is an excellent player who will relish the chance to go up against Kane.

That’s all well and good, but Kane is the top centre forward in England for a reason. He can score goals in a myriad of ways. Look for him to take his frustrations out on Newcastle in a big way today.
