Harry Kane reveals reason behind prolific partnership with Son Heung-min
As reported by Football.london, Tottenham Hotspur superstar Harry Kane has claimed that the way Jose Mourinho has set up the team is getting the best out of his partnership with Son Heung-min.
Kane and Son have been playing together at Tottenham for five years now, following the South Korean’s arrival from Bayer Leverkusen in 2015. However, the duo has never been more prolific as a partnership than they have been in the current season.

And the England captain has credited the way the team is set up under Mourinho for the reason behind their success this term. (h/t Football.london)
“We’re just feeling good. Understanding each other’s game well. The way we’re setting up is suiting us. The way everyone works and moves allows us to create that space. So we’ve got to keep it going.”
Opening up on his own personal form, Kane was of the opinion that he is playing the best football of his career till date. (h/t Football.london)
“I’d probably say it’s the best form I’ve been in in my life, the best start to the season for sure.”
