KANE: POCH WAS RIGHT, WE DO NEED TO GROW UP

HARRy KAnE says it is time for Tottenham to grow up and stop repeating the same immature mistakes in the Champions League. spurs threw away a two-goal lead for the second time in three games and opened their European campaign with a 2-2 draw at olympiacos on Wednesday to the fury of boss Mauricio Pochettino. ‘We’re not young any more,’ said Kane. ‘We’re not inexperienced. We’ve played in big games for club and country. That’s the hard part to get your head around. ‘i can see why the manager is frustrated, because he’s been here for six years now and we’re still making similar mistakes to the ones we were in his first year. We’ve got to find a way to get around it.’ spurs were 2-0 up and drew at Arsenal last month and Pochettino criticised his players in Greece, accusing them of lacking intensity and failing to respect his game-plan. Kane, who opened the scoring from the spot for his 15th goal in 20 Champions League games, said: ‘We didn’t play well but we found ourselves 2-0 up away from home and that’s a great position. ‘Conceding a goal before half-time killed the momentum. it happened at Arsenal as well. At half-time, the gaffer said players need to respect their positions more, whether it’s staying wider or not everyone coming in to try to get the ball. ‘We tried to do that but i don’t think we did it particularly well all game, to be honest.’ Lucas Moura scored Tottenham’s second goal on the half-hour but olympiacos reduced the deficit and equalised with a penalty early in the second half. ‘Any time you’re 2-0 up away from home, especially in the Champions League, you expect to go on to win,’ added Kane. ‘if we see it through to half-time, it’s probably a different game. That’s something we’ve got to work on and improve on. i don’t doubt the mentality of the team but a bit more maturity in those situations would help.’
