Harry Kane got himself on the scoresheet last night to get him within four goals of Mo Salah at the top of the Premier League scoring charts. He now has 37 in all competitions; his highest in a single campaign.
After the 2-0 win against Watford, Harry took to Twitter to state he wants the team to finish the season on a high note:
Important we finish the season strong. Good win tonight. #COYS #THFC #PremierLeague pic.twitter.com/woIXD2gABG

Verdict:
The 24-year-old is still clearly not back to his best since sustaining that ankle injury. It has been quite clear that he rushed himself back too quickly from the treatment table, but he is gradually getting back to his level.
The composed sidefooted finish from a pinpoint accurate cross from Kieran Trippier showed a great deal of confidence, although there were other opportunities he could have done better with.
Harry’s goal sewed up a relatively comfortable win over the Hornets, although it certainly wasn’t the best team performance you will ever see.
