relationship with Christian Eriksen and praised England
youngster Dele Alli.
Harry Kane has praised two Tottenham team-mates ahead of
Monday's home clash with bottom-of-the-table Aston Villa.
Kane netted a hat-trick against AFC Bournemouth last time out
in a 5-1 win at the Vitality Stadium and thinks midfielders
Christian Eriksen and Dele Alli played a key role in his return to
form.
The 22-year-old had just one league goal to his name before
Sunday's treble and believes his connection with Denmark
international Eriksen is proving pivotal on the pitch.
"We play very well together," Kane told Sky Sports. "We have an
understanding around the 18-yard box about the movements we
are going to make.
"We get on really well off the pitch too. The more chances he
makes for me, the better."
Former MK Dons midfielder Dele Alli has made an immediate
impact since stepping up two divisions in the off-season to
secure a spot in Mauricio Pochettino's first-team.
Kane says the teenager has made a positive start to his career
at White Hart Lane.
"He's very mature for his age. He's a great lad to have around
the dressing room, he's a bubbly character," he said.
"He's come in and scored a couple of goals and settled very
well. He's got a lot of stamina and runs a lot in games which
suits us well.
"He's just got to keep on doing what he's doing and I'm sure
he'll have many years to come at a high level."
