Highlights :
Tottenham Hotspur’s Harry Kane and Son Heung-min on fire this weekend after their disappointing opening game lost to Everton last weekend. Son scored four goals, all of which provided by his strike partner Kane to sink a win-less Southampton team playing at home.
Harry Kane went on the put the icing the cake with a goal of his own to complete a 5-1 rout of Southampton and a stellar performance of one goal and four assist. This begs the question, who needs Bale when there is Kane and Son?
