‘Give me them over Firmino and Salah!’ – Kane and Son ‘better’ than Liverpool duo as Neville says ‘every team in the world’ would take Tottenham star

Is there a better partnership in world football than Harry Kane and Heung-min Son right now? Jason Cundy doesn’t think so.

In fact, the talkSPORT host would have the Tottenham duo over Liverpool’s Roberto Firmino and Mohamed Salah right now.

Kane and Son combined for the NINTH time this season during Tottenham’s 1-0 win at Burnley on Monday night, making them the second-most deadly duo in Premier League history – just behind Frank Lampard and Didier Drogba.

Liverpool’s attack has dominated Europe in recent seasons, but with Gareth Bale still to be thrown into the mix, Cundy now believes Spurs boast a stronger attack than the Reds.

Cundy told the Sports Bar: “It’s been widely accepted that the best front three, certainly over the last two years, in this country and across Europe, has been at Liverpool – Mane, Firmino and Salah.

“Right now, give me Kane over Firmino and Son over Salah.”

 

England captain Kane has always been rated highly, but only now is Son getting the credit he truly deserves, according to Gary Neville.

Son has been doing this for years, however the 28-year-old South Korean rarely gets mentioned in the same breath as the Premier League’s top forwards.

Until now. Neville told Monday Night Football: “I think Son is so understated and he doesn’t get the glitz of some of the other top players in the league.

“He is an absolutely amazing player Son, he is a brilliant player. It’d be a nightmare to play against him he makes all the right runs.

“You talk about Sterling regularly, we talk about Mane and Salah at Liverpool, he’s right there with them. If he was at Liverpool or City he’d be doing what those lads are doing.”

He added: “When Son was out last season he was a huge miss. As I said before the game he doesn’t get the credit.

“I think Jose Mourinho was asked a question last week about when does he become world class Son and Jose said he was already there.

“They’re (Kane and Son) brilliant together, brilliant players and I think every team in the world would take Son. There isn’t a team in Europe or in the Premier League that wouldn’t take him.”
