Tottenham Hotspur forward Harry Kane insists that the North London giants can prove Virgil van Dijk and Liverpool are fallible when season’s Champions League finalists last renew their rivalry on Sunday in the Premier League.
Kane will spearhead the attack for Tottenham at Anfield in his side’s first shot at exacting a measure of revenge for June’s 2-0 Champions League defeat in Madrid.
Reds defender Van Dijk had Kane in check in the Spanish capital and put in a Man of the Match performance to help Klopp clinch his first piece of silverware for Liverpool.
But Kane has admitted that even though Liverpool have won eight and drawn one of their nine Premier League games this season and are unbeaten in the top flight since January, they can be beaten by Spurs.
While speaking to reporters ahead of the crunch game against Liverpool at the weekend Kane said, “Van Dijk is a great defender but he’s not invincible and Liverpool are not invincible, We just have to concentrate on ourselves. Any team can be beaten on any day and we just have to try to make sure we do that at Anfield.
The 26-year old further explained, “As a striker, it’s not just one-v-one on the pitch; there’s a lot that goes into it. Van Dijk is an amazing defender and he has had a fantastic couple of years at Liverpool. From my point of view, it’s just about playing my game and making my movements, doing my runs and trying to get on the scoresheet, trying to get assists. At the end of the day, it’s a team game, so we all have to be on it with each other and that’s the main aim.”
