Soccer-Premier League talking points

(Reuters) - Talking points from the Premier League weekend:

MORE TO KANE'S GAME THAN JUST GOALS

Harry Kane is seen by many as an out and out striker, given his impressive Premier League scoring record, but there is so much more to his game than just goals.

The England captain is more than adept at playing the creator too, with his pass for Son Heung-min's goal in Tottenham Hotspur's rampant 4-0 win at Leeds United on Saturday sublime in the extreme.

His all-round display earned special praise from his coach.

"Today on the ball Harry Kane was incredible, with his goals and assists," Antonio Conte said. "But off the ball I want to highlight his running and following the defenders of Leeds. When your best player is doing this it's an example to others."

CASH SENDS HEARTFELT MESSAGE TO POLISH TEAM MATE IN UKRAINE

Defender Matty Cash went against the rules while celebrating his second goal for Aston Villa in their 2-0 home win over Brighton & Hove Albion to send a message of support to Poland team mate Tomasz Kedziora who is stuck in Ukraine.

Cash was booked for removing his shirt to reveal a hand-written message saying "Tomasz Kedziora + family - stay strong my bro" for the Dynamo Kyiv player, who has not been able to leave the country following Russia's invasion this week.

Cash's thoughts were with his team mate but his focus was on the pitch as he controlled a pass from the left and fired a low shot past Robert Sanchez in the 17th minute in a much-needed win for Villa to stay in the race for a top-10 finish.
