Gary Lineker brutally mocks Tottenham instantly after new Harry Kane claim
Tottenham have been the subject of constant ridicule this season.
Ange Postecoglou’s side have endured a dismal domestic campaign that has seen them eliminated from both cups and sitting 16th in the Premier League.
They are still in contention for the Europa League trophy but that may not be enough to save the Australian’s job in North London.
Lineker savages Tottenham after Richards makes Kane claim
Spurs’ form has been a major issue this season and Daniel Levy may have a huge decision to make at the end of the campaign.
However, for now, focus is on ending the 17-year trophy drought and Micah Richards made a stunning claim about ex-Lilywhites ace Harry Kane.
Speaking on the Rest is Football podcast (5 May), he said: “If they go and win the Europa League, you have to say it has been a more successful team without Harry Kane.”
Gary Lineker responded by ruthlessly mocking his former club, saying: “Where are they in the league?”
Tottenham could do with Kane returning
Kane still loves the Lilywhites, so he would likely be happy if they win Europe’s second-rate competition.
However, his Bayern Munich side have just been crowned champions, his first trophy of his senior career, so he will not concern himself too much with Richards’ opinion.
| Stats (Bundesliga) | Kane |
| Matches | 29 |
| Goals | 24 |
| Assists | 7 |
| Minutes played | 2,271 |
The 31-year-old has proved that he can still perform at the top level as he has notched 24 goals and seven assists in 29 appearances in the Bundesliga this season.
The ex-Spurs star has been linked with a move back to the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, despite it being less than two years since he left the N17 outfit.
A return would be a feel-good move for supporters but it does not seem like a realistic possibility at the moment as the Bavarians are keen to keep hold of the England ace beyond the end of the season.
That may be a huge boost for Dominic Solanke, who has struggled to have a positive impact in North London this season but it will be a huge blow for Postecoglou and the fanbase, who may have wished for a reunion.
Kane would have transformed the mood around the club and his goalscoring exploits would be much needed but it seems like a pipe dream, more than anything else, at the moment.
