Former Tottenham star Brad Friedel tells talkSPORT: Harry Kane is the PERFECT finisher… goalkeepers can never prepare for him

Brad Friedel says Harry Kane has no flaws when it comes to finishing, meaning goalkeepers will NEVER figure the Tottenham striker out.

Kane fired his third hat-trick in nine games on Sunday as Spurs thrashed Stoke City 4-0 in the Premier League.

The 23-year-old's treble took him to 102 club career goals and Friedel, his former teammate at White Hart Lane, claims he has developed into the perfect frontman.

"He is a wonderful player and he is going to have an absolutely outstanding career, I have no doubt," said the former US international 'keeper, who spent four years with Spurs.

"Since I saw him with the academy a long time ago, his finishing has been outstanding. His work ethic has always been outstanding.

"You never know when players are going to make the breakthrough or if they are going to take their chance on the big stage, and he most definitely has.

"With Harry, he has got every kind of finish in his game.

"He has short backlift, he can slot the ball, he can hit it with power, he is good at heading the ball. 

"As goalkeepers get to play against Harry time and time again they will know he has every type of finish in his game so they can't get prepared for one particular one."
