Ian Wright has said that he’s scared of Harry Kane ahead of the north London derby between Tottenham and Arsenal on Saturday.
The two rivals clash in a game that’s taken on extra significance after Spurs have lost two on the bounce, leaving them just four points ahead of Arsenal.
Talking on his own YouTube channel, Wright admitted that he thought Arsenal had to score two goals as a minimum with Kane playing against them.
“Harry Kane is like Drogba for us, man,” Wright said.
“He scores against us all the time. So I go into that game, nervous as I am already, knowing we’ve got to score two goals.
“What’s good is that we’ve got the players that I know can score in that game.”
OPINION
Maybe this is a good game for Tottenham at the moment. They’ve lost two games in a row, against Burnley and Chelsea and desperately need a result against Arsenal to solidify their hold on third spot in the table. It shouldn’t be hard for them to get motivated for the Gunners. Third is probably the best they can hope for now this season, with Liverpool and Man City running away with the league. Pochettino has said that it’s impossible for his side to win it now and that’s a fair assessment. The other two teams are just too good at the moment. Ian Wright went on to say that he thinks it’s a good time to play Tottenham and that Arsenal should take the game to Spurs. He went on to predict that Arsenal will win, saying “I’m just feeling it, man”. Three defeats in a row for Tottenham would represent a mini crisis in their season. We think it could well be Tottenham’s first draw of the season.
