This promises to be a north London derby with a difference - Tottenham might go for it with Ange Postecoglou in charge rather than Jose Mourinho or Antonio Conte.
I'm not saying Spurs have more points than they would have done had Harry Kane stayed but I don't think they would have been able to play Angeball in the same way.
I've seen every Tottenham game this season. The trigger to press has been Richarlison or Son Heung-Min.
Spurs constantly need their striker to go after people and it's something Kane doesn't do, he lacks the dynamism though of course has many other attributes.
In that sense, selling the England captain to Bayern has been a blessing in disguise.
This promises to be a different type of North London Derby as Spurs might go for it with Ange Postecoglou in charge
Now that Harry Kane is no longer at Spurs, they can play differently and press more
It's given him carte blanche to play
