Harry Kane joked that Christmas dinner could become a regular feature on the menu at Tottenham's training ground after a 5-0 Boxing Day demolition of Bournemouth.
Kane was among the scorers at Wembley as Spurs followed up their 6-2 win at Everton on Sunday with another convincing triumph that lifted them above Manchester City to second in the Premier League.
