Harry Kane urges Tottenham to aim higher than fourth
Wednesday 3 February 2016 16:58, UK
Harry Kane has urged Tottenham to set their sights high after Tuesday night’s 3-0 victory over Norwich at Carrow Road.
Mauricio Pochettino's side moved into third - above north London rivals Arsenal on goal difference - after the win and are just five points off Premier League leaders Leicester.
Tottenham have not won a league crown since 1961 but Kane, who was on the scoresheet twice against the Canaries, believes there is no limit to what they can achieve this season.
"It is just one game at a time but we can beat anyone," the striker told the London Evening Standard. "That's our mentality, that's what the manager has given us and that's what we have to take into the rest of the season.
"We're not really looking behind us. We're looking forward. That's what's been different from other seasons, when we were maybe trying to hang on to fourth or hang on to fifth. Now we're third and we're trying to get as far up the league as we can. We're not worried about the teams behind us."

Kane believes there has been a change in mentality at Spurs this season and says his team-mates fear playing nobody.
"I don't think there's a team in the league who will be looking forward to facing us," he said. "We are confident going into every game and that's what we've got to maintain. We're playing very well and confidence is probably as high as it's been all season.
"We have games against Arsenal and Manchester City coming up but we don't fear anyone. We have to think about the games coming up against Watford, against Swansea, because they are all tough."
Kane has scored 18 goals in all competitions this season and says he is determined to beat last season's tally of 31.
"It's possible [to beat last season's number]. I'm on 18 now so confidence is high, there are still a lot of games left and we're still involved in the FA Cup and the Europa League," he added.
"People will always say I'm going to be tired or think I look tired but I'm feeling good. I manage myself well and the whole team look good."
