Liverpool stars get stuck into Kane after Bournemouth win

Liverpool stars James Milner and Loris Karius have got stuck into Harry Kane after their 3-0 win against Bournemouth.

Kane has been battered all week for fighting to claim Christian Eriksen’s goal as his own from their win against Stoke City, a claim that he won.

And following the Reds convincing victory against the Cherries, both Karius and Milner took to Twitter to have a dig at the English international.

Apparently motivated by his desire to catch Mohamed Salah in the golden boot race, the Liverpool stars posted the message below in a clear aim at Kane.

Milner has been running hot on the social media since he joined, and it shows a sense of humour that those outside the game wouldn’t guess he possessed.

The ex-Manchester City man has often been called out for being boring – but that’s just because he’s a model professional. Milner avoids alcohol, trains hard and always gives his best. And that’s why managers love him.

Either way, the extra notch on the Spurs man’s bedpost doesn’t seem like it’ll change much as Salah is still racing away from him.

With 30 strikes, the Egyptian is five ahead of Kane – while Salah has nine assists to his competitors two.

Sadio Mane and Roberto Firmino completed the route for Liverpool as they brushed aside the challenge from Eddie Howe’s men.

The Reds are now three points ahead of Tottenham, but the London side do have a game in land over their Mersey rivals. Liverpool are also one point off Manchester United in second, but they have only played 32 times while the Reds have 34 matches under their belt.
