Harry Kane says Tottenham are determined to continue to stamp out the slow starts that have cost Mauricio Pochettino's side away from home in recent weeks.

Spurs were caught cold in Premier League fixtures against Manchester City and Liverpool while the north Londoners also failed to hit the ground running in last week's Europa League defeat to Gent.

Pochettino's side delivered a perfect response in Sunday's comfortable victory over Fulham, with Kane's hat trick helping his side seal a place in the FA Cup quarter-finals.

And the striker was delighted he and his teammates managed to lay down an early marker by starting so brightly.

"We've been starting slow the last month or so. We got away with it away to [Man] City," he told Tottenham's official website.

"We got punished at Liverpool and were punished against Gent in midweek.

"We wanted to make that right, get on the front foot and press high. We created a few chances early on and it's a good win in the end," Kane said of the triumph at Craven Cottage.

Slavisa Jokanovic's side struggled to contain Pochettino's men, who pressurised the hosts into a series of mistakes thanks to their high-pressing game.

The Serbian manager was full of praise for the collective intensity of Tottenham, whom he believes treated the game as if they were playing Premier League pacesetters Chelsea.
