Tottenham Hotspur manager Mauricio Pochettino insists he never has any doubts about Harry Kane.

The Spurs striker ended his run of fives games without a goal for club and country when he converted from the penalty spot against Brighton on Saturday.

Speaking after the 2-1 victory, Pochettino said he felt assured Kane would end his poor run of in front of goal.

"Always for me Harry is one of the best. He is one of best players in our team. I don't have doubt," Pochettino told reporters at a news conference.

"It's always a guarantee to have him on the pitch, because he's a special player.

"For me he's a great player, not because he scored. When he didn't score in the past it was the same."
