After 21 minutes at St James' Park it would have been interesting to discover what Harry Kane was thinking.
His Tottenham Hotspur side had been dragged from pillar to post in a mauling reminiscent of a non-league side taking on a Premier League giant. The gap between Spurs and Newcastle is bigger than the six points the league table suggests.
But while the 6-1 defeat for the North London club was embarrassing, further humiliation could be around the corner. For years, Tottenham supporters have hailed 'one of their own' Kane, confident he would not leave. His goalscoring prowess has lifted them time and again but even his powers are failing to stop the rot. Kane is the only faint beacon of light in a sea of mediocrity.
