“It will be broken one day I am very sure of that”.
Tottenham, which is second on the table and 10 points behind Chelsea with 12 games remaining, hosts seventh-placed Everton on Sunday.
TOTTENHAM are taking on Everton on Sunday at White Hart Lane, but who could Mauricio Pochettino start?
Spurs suffered a blip in form in the middle of February, but have recovered well in the last couple of weeks culminating in a mammoth 4-0 win over Stoke City.
Spurs have let in the fewest amount of goals in the PL (18 in 26) games and visiting teams have managed only five in 13.
The two strikers are set to enter battle against each other, as Everton make the trip down to White Hart Lane for Sunday’s Premier League duel. At the same time, they have conceded a league-low 18.
They’ve both scored 17 goals and both are really top strikers and finishers.
Winning the EFL Cup final last weekend, albeit on the back of an unfairly disallowed goal for Southampton, has injected a new sense of confidence in Jose Mourinho’s charges.
Kane is in scintillating form, having hit his second hat-trick in a week against Stoke last weekend.
Everton are winless against Tottenham in their last eight games, but their last three encounters have ended in draws.
On Mauricio Pochettino: “I think he’s managing a big club and I think he’s happy”.
On Wayne Rooney: “I don’t speak any more about Rooney”. I am a big fan of him.
“I feel that if you look at my stats, my goals, then I'm up there”.
Under Ronald Koeman, who was hired as Everton manager in the last offseason, Lukaku is working harder off the ball than previously, putting himself about outside the area as well as inside it.
His runs from deep and the way he ghosts into the opposition penalty box means whoever plays at the back fro the Blues will have to pay close attention to him.
“In several aspects they play football what we like to do in our team”.
When you come in to manage a football team you need to time – time to understand the character of the players and the players need to understand how the manager will work, the system of play, the demands for intensity in training, all of these factors. “They try to do high pressing, and we like to”.
