'Dear Paul, Harry Kane has no problem scoring in my team... ask Ronaldo, Drogba or Benzema!' Feisty Mourinho pulls out his stats book (again) after Merson says Spurs star may NEVER hit top form

Jose Mourinho has launched an impassioned defence of his attacking record as a manager after Paul Merson said Harry Kane may never recapture his best scoring form under the Portuguese's guidance.

Kane returned after a major hamstring injury in Tottenham's 1-1 draw with Manchester United but struggled to impose himself upon the game. It was his first game since New Year's Day, where he went off injured in a 1-0 defeat by Southampton.

Speaking the following day, Merson said it could be a sign of things to come for Kane and added that he thinks the England captain will be considering his Tottenham future.
