What Eric Dier and Tottenham team told Bryan Gil after Harry Kane penalty miss vs Frankfurt

Eric Dier believes Harry Kane is "getting better and better" after his fine start to the 2022/23 campaign for Tottenham. Registering ten goals and two assists in his first 14 games of the season, the England captain scored for the third game in a row on Saturday evening with a penalty in the 2-0 win over Everton.

Kane has missed a couple of glorious opportunities to add to his tally for the season, however, with penalty misses in the Nottingham Forest and Eintracht Frankfurt victories. Following his failure against the German opponents, Dier revealed that the Tottenham team told Bryan Gil, who won the penalty after a mazy run, that he should have taken the ball off his teammate instead.

“I think he’s getting better and better every game," admitted the centre-back. "I think it’s nine goals in ten games. He doesn’t really get too fussed about what’s going on outside of him and keeps performing."
