Harry Kane is not complaining about Mourinho decision to play him out of position because results go in favour of Spurs.

According to Michael Owen, the shift in formation is hindering the England captain’s style of play as an out and out goalscorer. He is able to step in and link Son and Bergwijn with balls to score rather than being the outright attacker he once was.

His new role has helped redefine Son, who is the second-leading goal scorer, joint with Mohamed Salah with 10 in the Premier League.

Spurs are on top of the Premier League table with that style of play, level on points with Liverpool whom they will play against at Anfield on Wednesday.

“If I was Harry Kane I would certainly be frustrated thinking ‘we play deep, we don’t get enough crosses in and we’re not playing to my strengths’,” Owen told the talkSPORT Breakfast.

“However, results would suggest that at the moment everything is quite rosy and the more you win games and see yourself up the top of the table then the problems in your mind about how you’re playing or how much of the ball you’re getting probably disappears.

“But if results don’t go well then all of a sudden, as a top centre forward, you’re thinking ‘hang on a minute, I’m not built for this counter-attacking style.'”

Kane has scored 15 goals in 19 games for Spurs in all competitions already this season under Jose Mourinho.
