Tottenham vs Everton match report: Spurs make worst start to Premier League in seven years as Harry Kane fires another blank

Harry Kane, scorer of 31 goals last season, has not treated his home crowd to one since his hat-trick against Leicester City in March. Mostly subdued by John Stones, who is apparently destined to stay at Goodison, and Phil Jagiela, Kane looked badly in need of the support which Tottenham's transfer dealings have left it late to provide. As a result they failed to secure a first win in a game of more blood and thunder than quality.
