Harry Kane swears on his daughter's life that Christian Eriksen's second goal in Spurs' 2-1 victory over Stoke at the weekend brushed his shoulder before it went in the goal, and should therefore be awarded to him, Harry Kane. Obviously the man has not given up on catching Mo Salah for the Golden Boot just yet.
This is an actual thing that Harry Kane said out loud:
“I swear on my daughter’s life that I touched the ball, but there’s nothing I can do. If they can turn it around, they can turn it around. If they take my word, they take my word. The most important thing is that we won the game.”
"I swear on my daughter's life this thing happened but really it's no big deal I'm not that worried about it lol."

Christian Eriksen, in case you're wondering, is taking the high road and behaving in a manner in which teammates should behave.
So that got us wondering what other things Harry has sworn on his daughter's life about.
These are all made up (as far as we know), but none of them are as stupid as swearing on your daughter's life about scoring a goal that one of your teammates actually scored. Who cares, your team scored and won the game! That should mean more, Harry.
On his daughter's life, Harry Kane is (probably):
