Harry Kane believes Tottenham’s permanent appointment of Ryan Mason as head coach will help the club regain some of the values it has lost in recent years. In a recent interview with Sky SportsHowever, the striker spoke about the team’s downfall since Mauricio Pochettino led them to compete at the top of the Premier League and that the values and culture that made them successful back then have been partly lost in recent years.
Now in search of a new manager following the departure of Antonio Conte at the end of March, Mason is now in charge of the team for the remainder of the season after Christian Stellini was sacked following a lackluster 6-1 win at Newcastle United. . Kane, who has accumulated four points out of a possible nine since resuming the position he held two years ago, has paid tribute to his former teammate and has made it clear that everyone is “completely behind him.”
“I think we are all behind him. We know that the club is in a position where you have talked about recovering some values. I feel that Ryan brings all those qualities”, explained the England captain. “He has been here through the academy. , and he knows what it’s like to be a fan, and he knows what it’s like to play here. And with that attitude and that desire, he brings great enthusiasm to the coaching role here.

“Ultimately, it will depend on the president and the club what they decide to do. But in these three games, we are completely behind him to try to improve and try to win and see what happens.”
Several names have been linked to Tottenham’s vacancy in the last six weeks, including Julian Nagelsmann, Roberto De Zerbi, Xabi Alonso and Arne Sloat, to name a few. Big task for Daniel Levy to pick the right man After Tottenham’s recent struggles, Kane was asked about the names that were mentioned with the role, but he admitted his full attention was on the rest of the season.
That is decided by the club. If at the end of the season I get to speak to the president, I’m sure he’ll tell me what he thinks,” said the 29-year-old. But in the end we have three more games left, we don’t want to look too far away and get too carried away.
“The club will make the decision that is best for everyone, for the players, the fans and for the club in general, so we will have to wait and see what that is.”
After falling to a painful defeat against Liverpool last weekend, Tottenham bounced back with a narrow 1-0 win over Crystal Palace. Taking advantage of a full week in training camp before the game, Mason made some key tactical changes opting for a 4-4-2 formation without possession before switching to his usual 3-4-3 when he has the ball.
All credit to him. “It was the first proper week for him,” the striker said of the substitute coach’s tactic. Last week wasn’t really a week because we played two games in four days. It was his first week of training and preparation.
“Obviously we changed the system a bit without the ball being 4-4-2. Then with the ball to do what we used to do with the 3-4-3 but to keep possession a little more, to be a little more patient with the ball and not force it quickly. I thought we controlled a large part of the game.
“I still think we lack a bit of confidence in certain areas when we are under pressure, coming out of tight spaces, but it will happen. It comes with work and training. All credit to Ryan for making those decisions. I am very happy that we were able to win and keep our networks clean.
After withdrawing from the competition in the Champions League after a series of terrifying results, Tottenham hopes to reach the European League by the end of the month. If the team finishes seventh, Tottenham will find themselves back in the European Conference League for the second time in three seasons.
A competition not looked upon fondly by fans, many believe that missing out on playing in Europe entirely could benefit Tottenham, especially as it would give the new manager plenty of time on the training ground to articulate his philosophy. Asked about the possibility of ending the Europa League, Keane admitted that the club cannot disrespect any competition in which he plays.
“In the end, I think I like to play football matches regardless of the competition,” Kane explained. “He deserves to be where you end up in the season.
“You can’t disrespect any competition you play in. It’s one of those, if you end up in the conference league and win it, it’s worth it. If you don’t, people will probably see it as a nuisance.”
“But when you’re at a club where we haven’t won a trophy in 15 years, if we end up at it, it might be an opportunity to try to shake that off of us.”
