Tottenham Hotspur should well be celebrating their return to winning ways after beating West Bromwich Albion\u00a0Albion 2-0 at home on Sunday in the Premier League.<\/p>\n
After having lost their previous three games in the league, Spurs needed a strong response against the struggling Baggies. And the turnaround came from Harry Kane, who returned from injury, scoring in the second half and his strike mate Son Heung-Min adding another to seal all three points for the north London club.<\/p>\n
After the game, Jose Mourinho, the Spurs boss, was full of praise for the England striker, claiming he is one of the best in the world.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe is one of the best strikers in the world. Period. There is nothing else to say,\u201d said Mourinho, as quoted by Football London.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe team depends a lot on him, we can\u2019t hide that. It\u2019s the goals he can score, the assists he can make, the link play he has, that personality that the players can have and he is always an important influence for us.<\/p>\n
\u201cToday I was promising I was not going to speak about individuals because I am so happy with the compromise of the players to win the game and close this negative series of three defeats, but with the question it is hard to run away from it. He is a very important player.\u201d<\/p>\n
Kane is arguably one of the best strikers in the Premier League having scored to date over 20 goals in his last six seasons and he is looking well set to surpass that mark in the present campaign as well.<\/p>\n
He has scored 15 goals in all competitions already. However, Kane has improved his all-round game under Mourinho this season and has managed 14 assists in all competitions thus far.<\/p>\n
His 208th Tottenham goal puts him alongside Bobby Smith and behind only Jimmy Greaves in Spurs\u2019 all-time scoring list.<\/p>\n
With this victory, Spurs have now moved up to the eighth in the table,\u00a0four points off the Champions League\u00a0places.<\/p>\n
