'Difficult' - Antonio Conte makes Harry Kane decision following his lack of goals

Antonio Conte has admitted that Harry Kane is undroppable despite the striker's lack of goals.

Kane, who won the Golden Boot and playmaker award last term, has scored only once in 12 Premier League appearances this season.

And despite the England international's drought of goals, Conte is certain the Spurs man will continue to start as he's beyond important for the team.

“If I answer in an honest way, to start a game without Harry now is a bit difficult for me,” he said.

 

“It’s a bit difficult for me. Honestly we are talking about an important player for us, an important player for all.

 

“Yeah, in this moment I am answering in this way. I hope to improve the situation, to improve the confidence of all players and to see that maybe without Harry we can cover the situation. “Not in the same way, but in a way that can be good to get three points.

 

“Now in this moment, honestly, I don’t see this team starting without Harry.”

 

“I always like to be honest with my players, and if I wasn’t satisfied with Harry’s performances, for sure I would tell him,” the Italian added.

 

“But I repeat: I’m very satisfied with his performances – he is playing well and doing fantastic work for the team.

 

“I know that, for strikers, it is vital to score, but at the same time we have to think first of Tottenham, what is best for Tottenham, and what is important for us if Harry scores is to take three points.

 

“A player like Harry can always solve the game because he has fantastic quality, he is a complete player, a real top player, and I’m honestly not worried about him.

 

“Sometimes a striker does not score, and that’s life, but his contribution to the team is still at a very important level.”
