Some Tottenham fans on social media were pleased to see Harry Kane coming back into form against Albania and are excited to see what the striker can do under Antonio Conte this season.
Kane answered his critics in the best possible fashion on Friday as he netted a perfect hat-trick in the first half as England put five past the Albanians.
The striker headed in Jordan Henderson’s cross from close range before smashing a left-foot effort into the side netting from a tight angle after being played through on goal by Raheem Sterling.
However, it was Kane’s hat-trick goal which was the strike of the night as the 28-year-old acrobatically volleyed a corner kick into the back of the net.
Some Tottenham fans were delighted to see the striker look hungry and sharp on Friday, with many suggesting that Conte will be rubbing his hands with glee after watching Kane’s performance.
Harry Kane is playing in a 3-4-3 system, scoring and staying in the opposing teams half.
Conte has the biggest smile on his face right now.

I’ve just seen the England score cos I was at a wedding, Harry Kane running the show once again with a first half trick.
It’s exactly what Spurs & Conte needed going into the busy period of games.

Kane looked sharper tonight albeit against pretty woeful opponents, helped by the fact Southgate finally played to his strengths and played more attacking football so he didn’t have to keep coming deep to get a touch, watch on Mr Conte

Happy for Kane, really hope he can bring the form back to Spurs. We get him playing and with Conte doing his stuff could be a good rest of the season

Spurs Web Opinion
While it is obviously not fair to suggest that Kane’s performance last night was the ‘Conte effect’, one can argue that the striker certainly needed a fresh start after his loss of form under Nuno Espirito Santo. Hopefully, the hattrick on Friday will open the floodgates for the 28-year-old this season.
