It is highly unlikely that winning the Carabao Cup would have provoked some sort of seminal changing of Harry Kane’s mind.

As far as Tottenham are concerned, his mind is made up. It has been for months; in truth, years.

But a trophy’s a trophy - particularly when you don’t have a single one to your name.

In the grand scheme of things, Tottenham’s exit won’t have impacted significantly on Kane’s mental state.

Yet all the same, it provided another indication of how far Tottenham are away of fulfilling his ambitions.

Once again for Tottenham and Kane, it’s the FA Cup or bust. With Brighton waiting in round four, it could easily be bust.

Kane being Kane, he’ll still believe he can break his trophy duck at Wembley in May.

But even if he did lift the FA Cup this season, what would that prove?
