Tottenham are flying high at the moment, and Harry Kane doesn’t see how they can’t challenge for Liverpool’s throne in the Premier League.

Kane has been in remarkable form this season by providing six goals and eight assists to help Tottenham move to within two points of joint-leaders Southampton and Liverpool in the Premier League table.

Jose Mourinho’s side may have started on the wrong foot, but they’re now flying high and aiming big.

A victory over West Brom on Sunday afternoon, in fact, would move them into the lead of the standings temporarily until Liverpool have played Manchester City later that evening at least.

“When you look at the ability of our squad, you would definitely say that we’ve got enough to win a title,” said Kane as quoted on Yahoo.

“But I’d also say that we’ve been close over the last four, five years and haven’t quite got over the line. So, it’s not as easy as just having a good squad – and winning a few games – to challenge for the title.

“But this is a season where I don’t think one team’s going to run away with it – like Liverpool last year. There’s going to be opportunities for other teams to put good runs together and get right up the table.

“We’ve got to make sure we don’t get carried away either. We know we’ve been playing well – and the last two games have been good for confidence, to grind out results and get ugly wins. That’s what we’re going to need.

“There have still been points dropped from winning positions. But so far so good. If we can win on the weekend, we’ll be around the top of the table going into that international break. We’d have taken that before the start of the season.”
