Harry Kane's penalty sinks Burnley and boosts Tottenham's top-four ... (The Guardian)

Perhaps a dodgy meal will not stop Spurs this time. When it was announced that Dejan Kulusevski would start on the bench after contracting a stomach bug ...

When Sessegnon found one, he cut back for Son to draw an outstanding reflex save from Pope. The keeper denied him again in the last 10 minutes; Burnley threw men forward towards the end but their fate remains in the balance. When Kane pulled a by now rare chance wide in the final minute of added time, meeting Lucas Moura’s cutback from the kind of position he usually exploits in his sleep, Burnley appeared to have reached the interval in some degree of comfort. Kane got his bearings right this time and Spurs had got away with a performance of dwindling intensity. For a time the ball hardly left Spurs’ territory; Burnley, after all, could not afford to hang everything on Brighton compounding Leeds’s misery at Elland Road. But they could sense the passing of a storm and, perhaps, that ripple of uncertainty from the stands. Burnley were irate but the penalty award that won this game looked correct by the letter of today’s mind-numbing laws.

Tottenham 1-0 Burnley: Harry Kane penalty edges Spurs closer to ... (Eurosport.com)

Tottenham Hotspur leapfrogged arch-rivals Arsenal into the top four with a narrow 1-0 victory over a stubborn Burnley side who remain at risk of relegation.

The penalty guru steps up and buries the ball into the bottom left corner to give Spurs a slender advantage at the break. Four of the last five matches between Spurs and Burnley have ended 1-0. As for Burnley, they have a game in hand to play away at Aston Villa on Thursday evening, where they too will be desperate to win and boost their chances of survival. The ball has struck Barnes' arm which does appear to be in an unnatural position. Spurs came closest to a second when Pope brilliantly denied Son from close-range, but the hosts held their nerve to secure a precious three points in their quest for the Champions League. Spurs dominated the opening exchanges but were left frustrated by a resilient Burnley defence and inspired Nick Pope in the visiting goal.

“He was not the only player to have this, maybe a virus came around into the team. Conte’s team needed a second to calm their nerves, and it almost arrived two minutes later. With the half petering out, Davinson Sanchez hooked a ball into the box, catching the arm of Barnes stood a yard away. It took Burnley 23 minutes to get a spell of possession in Tottenham’s half, and when they did they threatened. Son Heung-min tried to catch out Nick Pope at the near post before Nathan Collins hooked Kane’s close-range header off the line from Ryan Sessegnon’s cross, in an opening that Spurs roundly dominated. Antonio Conte’s team can reasonably lay a claim to having recovered pole position in the top-four race.

Chris Sutton has predicted that Antonio Conte's Tottenham Hotspur will beat Mikel Arteta's Arsenal to the fourth spot in the Premier League table.

In our opinion, Arsenal have the advantage over Tottenham in the race for the final Champions League place in the Premier League table. Arsenal will take on Newcastle United in the Premier League on Monday evening. Arsenal will slip up in the final two games of the Premier League season and hand the fourth spot to North London rivals Tottenham, according to former Chelsea striker Sutton.

'£50m player': Conte tipped to completely transform Tottenham 21 ... (HITC)

Jermaine Jenas has told BBC Sport that Tottenham Hotspur head coach Antonio Conte could transform Ryan Sessegnon into a £50 million player.

Tottenham are aiming to finish in the top four of the Premier League table this season, and Sessegnon is playing his role in that quest. Conte is a world-class manager, and under the Tottenham boss, Sessegnon would learn a lot more about the game. In our opinion, Sessegnon is flourishing under Conte as a left wing-back, and the Tottenham player is only going to grow.

In part that is because Tottenham’s destiny will be decided at Carrow Road on Sunday. It may reflect the reality that City have moved on: Erling Haaland will be City’s new striker. “I am the happiest guy in the world playing in this stadium.” He showed an aptitude for the right-back role to block a Dwight McNeil shot. “Look how happy I am, it is incredible to be here,” the Korean said. The season started at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium with and without Harry Kane. He was referenced if not seen. He popped up as an ersatz left-back to thrash a clearance.

Arsenal is two points behind in fifth place and will look to respond by beating Newcastle away on Monday to stay in control of the race for Champions League qualification. Tottenham struggled to create many clear-cut chances in the face of an ultra-defensive set-up by Burnley, which started the day one place outside the relegation zone — tied for points with third-to-last Leeds. Tottenham moved above fierce rival Arsenal into the Champions League qualification positions in the Premier League by beating Burnley 1-0 thanks to Harry Kane’s first-half penalty on Sunday.

But like I have said that is his decision, he’s his own man, and I’m sure he will talk to the club and decide on his future. Liverpool are not in a place where they are likely to spend that amount of cash to purchase a player like Harry Kane. That leaves Manchester United, who are in rebuilding mode under new manager Erik Ten Hag, and it’s not clear whether Kane would want to leave one club on the rise for a bigger club that’s currently trying to claw its way out of a downturn. In the background, of course, is the reality that if he wants to leave to play football elsewhere and compete for trophies, his options are slim, especially if he wants to stay in England. Manchester City just purchased Erling Haaland and are unlikely to renew their interest in Kane this summer. But he has worked really hard while he has been here, he’s a great guy, a really passionate man so whatever his decision is you have to respect it. “I have said I am a big fan of his and we get on really well so of course it would be great for the club if he stays. You would think the subject of Harry Kane’s future at Tottenham Hotspur would be settled by now, but we all have been around the block enough to know that’s not the case.
