Graeme Souness delivers brutal Harry Kane rant following Tottenham star's 'passion' comments

Liverpool legend Graeme Souness has criticised Harry Kane for comments the Tottenham Hotspur striker made about his side's passion and desire.

Spurs endured an afternoon to forget last Sunday, losing 6-1 against Newcastle United in a match that saw them concede five inside the opening 21 minutes at St James' Park. The north Londoners then found themselves 2-0 down at home to Manchester United on Thursday evening before fighting back to draw 2-2 thanks to second-half strikes from Pedro Porro and Son Heung-min.

Spurs frontman Kane then spoke highly of the Lilywhites' mentality, telling Sky Sports: "After the Newcastle game, going two nil down at half-time, it could have been easy to fold. In that second half of the (Manchester) United game we’ve done the opposite, we’ve come out fighting and we’ve come out with desire, passion and that hunger to turn things around."
