Mourinho knows how to bring out the best in Kane

It all came together like a perfect storm. A huge injury, loss of confidence and the break for coronavirus. Kane was a shadow of his former self and even threatened to leave Tottenham. That is all now forgotten. He is back, and he has made an excellent comeback.

He scored the goal against the WBA, number 150 of his career in the Premier League and number 201 with Tottenham. Number 276 as a professional. This season he has played 13 of 14 games. 

The days of criticising Mourinho for not knowing how to squeeze the best from Kane are long gone. It was not easy, as the forward had been going through a rough patch. So bad that he threatened to leave Tottenham.

Mourinho remained calm, and trusted him. He knew that no matter how much he left for, he would not be able to sign anyone like him. He gave him confidence and Kane responded.
