Tottenham Hotspur do not appear to be missing Harry Kane this season.
Ange Postecoglou never got the chance to have the Tottenham Hotspur legendary striker reading his front line, but it appears his squad has been doing fine without him.
Despite a recent dip in form, Tottenham Hotspur still sit fourth in the Premier League, a drastic improvement from last season’s offerings.
Harry Kane hasn’t looked back from leaving Spurs either. The English veteran is tearing it up in the Bundesliga, further cementing himself in and amongst the world’s best strikers.
Harry Kane picks his ‘ultimate striker’
Speaking of fabulous strikers, ESPN tasked Kane to pick his ‘ultimate striker’.
The ultimate striker comprised eight components. Kane picked a past or present player to represent each. Kane included himself, plus one seriously surprising ex-Totttenham Hotspur star to make his perfect forward player.
Movement: Edinson Cavani
Speed: Cristiano Ronaldo
Heading: Peter Crouch
Finishing: Harry Kane
Strength: Didier Drogba
Dribbling: Kylian Mbappe
Link-up play: Wayne Rooney
- Work rate: Jude Bellingham
A star-studded list of names with one somewhat anomaly – in the form of Peter Crouch.
Now don’t get us wrong, Crouch was a phenomenal player back in his day, but for Kane’s mind to immediately spring to the towering forward amid a sea of legendary names is somewhat surprising.
Peter Crouch for Tottenham Hotspur
Here is Peter Crouch’s record for Tottenham Hotspur.
- Games: 93
- Goals: 24
- Assist: 23

A very decent return from the big man, who was also clinical elsewhere for other English clubs. But does he deserve a place in Harry Kane’s ultimate striker? We’ll let you be the judge of that.
