Spurs boss Pochettino: Kane deserves Player of the Year award ahead of Hazard

Tottenham boss Mauricio Pochettino says Harry Kane should win the PFA's Player of the Year award.

Chelsea winger Eden Hazard is the red hot favourite to land the prize after his excellent season with Chelsea.

But Pochettino says: "I think that Hazard is a very good player, he's fantastic, a great player. But the impact that Harry has had on English football is massive.

"Maybe the impact is bigger than Hazard and his performances.

"Everyone knew that Hazard is a brilliant player.

"But I think not too many people expected that Harry Kane would show the performances that he has this season.

"This is the difference I believe."
