Premier League table without biggest point-earning goals: How Tottenham and Liverpool are reliant on strikes of Harry Kane and Mohamed Salah

It is an often repeated phrase by fans, usually of other, rival clubs: where would Tottenham be without Harry Kane?

The Spurs striker is the most prolific points winner in the Premier League - his 24 strikes this season have been solely responsible for 14 of Tottenham's points. Take those goals away, and Spurs lose a number of wins and draws.

It gives the Premier League table a very different look if the biggest point-earning scorers are removed, with Tottenham catapulted down from fourth to fifth - behind rivals Arsenal.
