Done that a few times now, and it never gets old. His cross forced Loris Karius to punch out which fell to Victor Wanyama and the rest is history.

For Kane, though, Sunday night ended in disappointment. That's sort of what Manchester United have lacked - players around (Romelu) Lukaku who are going to push him on and help him score more goals.

It was pleasantly laugh-inducing that Karius showed signs of goalkeeping of a reasonable substance.

No, but he can blame Smart - although he won't as he doesn't want "to pay the biggest fine in world football". Spurs midfielder Dele Alli became a major punchline on social media after he was booked for diving. After that, we probably should have won and if I'd scored my first penalty we probably would have.

"That's the decision he's got in the next year or two". Atkinson did not reply to the question and so had no involvement in the decision.

Rooney admitted he was impressed by the City team former Barca and Bayern Munich boss Pep Guardiola has built.

"I thought in the second half we played much better". And yet, it didn't immediately work out for him. His performance slightly tarnished by not dealing with Salah for his second goal. Two points - even with one round left - is easily achievable.

It somehow all looked a little bit familiar, a bit like seeing someone get a bigger laugh from a joke you told them five minutes earlier.

"For a long time my motivation was simply to close my eyes and picture myself scoring against Arsenal in the Premier League". This is, of course, not allowed.

This prompted many observers at the game to wonder if this decision was effectively awarded by video review despite the Premier League not yet using the system.

Kane is still only 24 years of age. "And if Tottenham don't win trophies in the next year, maybe two, he is going to want to move elsewhere to win trophies", Rooney stated. If that seems a touch harsh, then it is backed up by numbers. It's great to watch, the courage they have on the ball, it's almost the perfect football at times. Were we off the pace, or genuinely unnerved by Mauricio Pochettino's tactics? That portion of the play is the less controversial part. That takes him to 240 without breaking a sweat.

True, not winning trophies or challenging for titles could affect Kane, but the England international is happy at Tottenham at the moment.

The midfield workhorse said he was delighted to play a positive role for the side, adding that getting a point away to Liverpool is no mean task.

"He's the best striker in Europe right now", said Rooney.
