But Kane believes Spurs should not be making the same mistakes as they did five years ago.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe hard part to get your head around is we\u2019re not young any more, we\u2019re not inexperienced,&#8221; he told <a href=\"https:\/\/www.standard.co.uk\/sport\/football\/tottenham\/harry-kane-doesn-t-know-why-tottenham-keep-making-the-same-mistakes-a4241141.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">reporters<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019ve all played in big games for club and country. I can see why the manager is frustrated because he\u2019s been here for six years now and we\u2019re still making similar mistakes to the ones we were in his first year. We\u2019ve got to find a way to get around it and improve.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI don\u2019t doubt the mentality of the team. We\u2019ve come through a lot in the last few years, including reaching the Champions League final after being down and out in the group. But a bit more maturity will help.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>After three away games across all competitions this season, Spurs are still awaiting their first win, drawing each match 2-2. They will have the chance to rectify their poor record on Saturday, when they travel to the King Power Stadium to face Leicester City.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Chelsea Must Play Frank Lampard&#039;s Back Three w\/Rory Jennings\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/SJVdL5KI2qc?start=22&#038;feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><strong>Subscribe to <a href=\"http:\/\/sqwk.at\/Squawka-Sub\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Squawka\u2019s Youtube channel here<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n<h2><strong>Kane admits Spurs did not respect Pochettino&#8217;s gameplan<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>As against Arsenal at the end of August, Spurs&#8217; downfall started with Pochettino&#8217;s side conceding just before half-time, with Daniel Podence pulling a goal back for Olympiacos.<\/p>\n<p>And Kane admits Spurs did not respect Pochettino&#8217;s gameplan, adding: \u201cConceding before half-time killed our momentum.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt happened against Arsenal as well. I\u2019m not quite sure how they got through so easily. But especially away from home in the Champions League, you have to knit together, make sure you don\u2019t concede.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhether that\u2019s being more compact, going direct and seeing out the clock or something else. At 2-0 up if we see it through to half-time it\u2019s probably a \u00addifferent game.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAt half-time, the gaffer said the \u00adplayers need to respect their positions more. We tried to do that. I don\u2019t think we did it particularly well all game. Any time you\u2019re 2-0 up away, especially in the Champions League, you expect to go on to win.
