Harry Kane makes Arsenal dig

Former Tottenham star Harry Kane has aimed a dig at north London rivals Arsenal following a clash with them in the Champions League. The striker found the back of the net for Bayern Munich at the Emirates to continue his run of scoring against the Gunners.

When asked about his habit of scoring against the north London outfit, Kane told CBS Sports: “I get quite a lot of penalties against Arsenal, especially at the Emirates so they hand the opportunities to me! I enjoy these games.

“For Tottenham they were big games. They were London derbies. I have spent many games here and had some good results and bad results and I enjoy big games. This is a quarter-final and it doesn’t matter if it’s Arsenal or whoever this is a big game! I was glad to help the team today.”

Yves Bissouma makes Ange Postecoglou claim

Tottenham star midfielder Yves Bissouma has discussed the change Ange Postecoglou has made since arriving at the club. The Mali international struggled in his first season with Spurs, being snubbed by Antonio Conte.

Speaking to the Match Day Programme, Bissouma said: “For me, personally, when Ange came in, he told me exactly what he wants from me and my role in the team. I’m just listening and working hard to perform in the way he wants me to and I’m really happy to work with him and the group.

“It’s the way I like to play and it’s always good because it suits my style. l really like to receive the ball, turn and try to find a solution. If it’s not on then I’ll dribble to make space and find a solution. My role is to get the ball and try to find a solution for my team-mates It’s really fun, I’m enjoying this role a lot.”
