He is now back in first-team training and this week declared himself fit and ready to go for the final.But Hoddle has urged Mauricio Pochettino NOT to start the hitman, as he believes Kane could be Tottenhams secret weapon against Liverpool. Im absolutely delighted that hes fit, but I definitely wouldnt start him, the Spurs legend told White Hart Lane stadium announcer Paul Coyte on talkSPORT2.I think what a sight it would be for the Spurs fans and his team-mates if hes there with half-an-hour to go and the game is hanging on an inch or is heading into extra-time.What a sight to see him come on with Lucas Moura and Heung-min Son if goals are needed and what a sight if they are hanging onto the game, because he can hold the ball up.The tempo of the game is going to be absolutely incredible at the beginning of the game, Liverpool like to press and play that high tempo, I dont think hell be ready for that sort of pace.Preperations on underway ahead of Saturday’s Champions League final between Tottenham and Liverpool in MadridGETTY2

I really feel that once the game is settled in the second-half and hes coming on fresh, I think thats where he can have a real impact.Yeah, his ankle is feeling good and thats great news, but hes not 100 per cent match fit and we all know that.But its a great sign that hes fit and it will give so much confidence to the other players, it really will.A 100 per cent fit Harry Kane starts, theres no doubt about it, but at this moment in time I think hell be on the bench.
