Mauricio Pochettino positioned his hands to make the point. Tottenham's manager was about to compare his star man with old ally Gabriel Batistuta and recognised the weight his words would carry.
'Hopefully I can get another hundred even quicker,' Kane said. 'Yes, all the individual records are good but you want to try and win club trophies. That is what it is all about.'
Silverware has to be the objective for this team. Tottenham have barely figured in the early-season chatter, but the ruthless manner in which they exposed Everton's shortcomings showed why Pochettino has masterminded title challenges in consecutive years.
All over the field there was quality. The back three of Jan Vertonghen, Davinson Sanchez and Toby Alderweireld comfortably contained Everton's attack and ensured the only significant work Hugo Lloris had to do was catch Dominic Calvert-Lewin's 64th-minute header.
Kieran Trippier and Ben Davies ran amok down the flanks, while the star of the show was Christian Eriksen, whose effortless elegant distribution enabled Tottenham to constantly expose Everton; his goal, just before half-time, ended the contest.
Just 4 players reached 100 goals in fewer games than Kane with Jimmy Greaves playing 109 games,George Hunt 138,Bobby Smith 140 and Johnny Morrison.
