Why I will have to rest Harry Kane - Tottenham boss Mauricio Pochettino

MAURICIO POCHETTINO admits he may have to rest Harry Kane this month so the striker can maintain his high levels of performance.

 

Harry Kane has played in all of Tottenham's Premier League games this season

 

Kane has played in all of Spurs' 24 Premier League games this season and has been in fantastic form with 15 goals.

But the England international is the clubs only recognised striker, and without him it is feared that the goals could dry up.

Pochettino however isn't worried and admits resting Kane won't be an issue.

 

he said: "I think it’s important to keep the performance so sometimes you need to rotate and give rest for some players to recover their energy.

"But this is our job, from the beginning of the season to try to share the minutes because we are in tough competitions. 

"We have different games and different competitions so we need to rest the squad.

"If he needs some time to rest or some games to stay on the bench it will be good for him and good for the squad."
