Good for Tottenham Hotspur striker Harry Kane. He’s saying what a lot of people in the #COYS community are thinking. The North London Derby has possibly never been bigger than it will be today. Hence, the rivalry and acrimony between the two sides is heating up.
Kane admits that Arsenal, when they struggle, is a motivating force for his club.
“The fans have been amazing — the atmosphere was unbelievable [against Swansea]. You see when the Arsenal scoreline comes up and everyone has a big roar and it’s important. You feel that energy around the stadium. We are doing all we can to give the fans back what they want to see,” Harry Kane said, admitting that news of the Gunners faltering enlivens his team.
“Obviously the teams around us, the more they lose and the more we win, it’s going to be better for us — whether it’s Arsenal, City or Leicester.”
“But we know what we’ve got to do. We’ve got to keep winning games.”

“It’s what we want to be doing. At the start of the season, it was just to be trying to get into the top four but now that we’re close, it’s just taking each game as it comes and seeing what happens.”
“We feel we can beat anyone in the league and we’ve been showing that in these last few weeks, so we don’t fear anyone.”
