The strikes marked Kane's 94th and 95ths goal in the Premier League, second to only Teddy Sherringham with 97 Premier League goals at Tottenham, however, Kane refused to entertain the thought that he may be able to surpass Shearer's all-time mark of 260 Premier League goals, despite possessing a better goals to games ratio than the Newcastle United legend. "Of course you dream about it, but I'd be silly to look that far ahead I think," Kane told Sky Sports. "I've still got a long way to go. A lot can happen in football. "Hopefully I can stay fit, stay sharp and we'll see what happens. Maybe if I get to 200 and I've still got a few more years left then I'll start thinking about it. "But for now I'm concentrating on each game. I've had a great 2017 and hopefully, for me, it's an improved 2018 and I get even better."
