‘He is good’: Antonio Conte says that he’s going to start ‘class’ player for Tottenham against Burnley tomorrow
Tottenham Hotspur boss Antonio Conte has reassured fans that the back injury Harry Kane picked up in the game against Manchester City on Saturday isn’t serious.
After three defeats in a row in the Premier League, Tottenham’s confidence was rock bottom. It just looked like there was no way back for them, but Conte had different ideas.
The Italian set his team out perfectly against the defending Premier League champions and Spurs, even though they didn’t dominate the game, came away with a well-deserved win.
Kane’s injury was the only negative from the game but Conte has some good news for Tottenham fans.
Antonio Conte: Injury will not stop Harry Kane from playing against Burnley
Conte faced the media today ahead of his side’s game against Burnley in the Premier League tomorrow.
Spurs’ confidence is through the roof and after beating Manchester City in Pep Guardiola’s own backyard, they will believe they can beat any side in the country.
To boost their chances even more, Conte confirmed today that Harry Kane is fit after recovering from his injury. The Italian even joked that there’s no way he wouldn’t start the Spurs superstar, not even if he lost a leg.
“Harry had a hit on his back but he has to play. Even if he has one leg, he has to play. He is good. Harry knows his importance to the team,” Conte said in his press conference, as per .
TBR View:
Harry Kane, despite the back injury he picked up, was absolutely incredible against Manchester City. His display was one of the best individual performances we’ve seen in the Premier League for a long time and if he’s in that kind of mood every time, Spurs will fancy their chances of winning every game they play.
Jamie Carragher labelled Kane’s display against Manchester City as ‘pure class’, while fellow pundit Graeme Souness branded him as ‘fantastic,’ while speaking on .
To make things more difficult for Burnley than it already is, Kane has a sensational record against them. The Englishman has scored nine goals and has provided three assists in 13 appearances against the Clarets in his career so far.
The game at Turf Moor will be completely different to the one at the Etihad but if Kane plays like the way he did on Saturday, the result will be exactly the same – Tottenham will come back home with all three points.
