Imagine that Harry Kane does get on against Manchester City, the club he is desperate to join. How would he feel about denting their title hopes? How would City’s defenders feel about denting him? On the other hand, Kane could be keen to remind Pep Guardiola of his scoring prowess. Then again, is he in any shape to excel? Even the sight of him would draw a reaction from the Spurs crowd. In a game of many subplots, one transcends them all. David Hytner
