Andy Gray insists Tottenham have a player who is better than Martial

The never-ending football schedule continues this evening for Tottenham Hotspur, as they face Crystal Palace.

They’ll be looking to reduce the deficit to the top four after going five points behind Manchester United last night.

Arsenal’s incredible start to the season and the emergence of Newcastle as genuine top four contenders has shaken up the top of the Premier League.

It’s meant that at the halfway stage of the season, some big hitters look set to miss out next season.

The pair were discussing the strength of Tottenham’s forwards in comparison to Manchester United’s.

In particular, England captain Harry Kane, and his future at Spurs.

They both insisted that Kane is better than Anthony Martial, and in fact all of United’s front line.

With just 18 months left on his contract, the 29-year-old could end up finally leaving his boyhood club in the near future.

If he does, Old Trafford might be an appropriate destination for the Tottenham forward.

Kane is better than Martial – Gray

Speaking on beIN Sports about Tottenham’s talisman, Gray said: “He would go into that Man United team, and he would score goals from the offset.

“He’s so much better than what they’ve got. Anthony Martial or Harry Kane? I’m having Harry Kane all day long.

“Because I know what I’m getting from him, I don’t know what I’m getting from Martial.”

Kane is having another brilliant season at Spurs, and is second in the race for the Golden Boot behind Erling Haaland.

His personal achievements for the club have been outstanding, but silverware still eludes him in north London.

It would be hard to argue that he’d be more likely to win trophies at Man United right now, with both clubs at a very similar level.

Whether that’s enough to convince him to stay past the end of his current contract is yet to be seen.

However, if Kane to leave the club, Manchester United should be on high alert, as he’s certainly better than Martial and co. right now.
