West Brom goalkeeper Ben Foster believes Tottenham are the best team he has faced this season.
The Baggies had not lost at White Hart Lane since 2012 but will not remember their latest visit fondly as Spurs ran them ragged for much of the contest to go second in the table.
Kane, who sat out the FA Cup win over Aston Villa after the birth of his first child, opened the scoring early on before Gareth McAuley's own goal put the hosts further ahead, with the new father rounding off his hat-trick with two goals in five minutes towards the end.
"In all fairness that's probably the best team I have played against," Foster told the club’s website.
"Fair play to them, it's just one we will have to move on from. We went three at the back to try and get back into the game but sadly we couldn't get going.
"We have to lick our wounds and forget about it as quickly as possible. Everyone has their ups and downs.
"We need to get over this one and move on to next weekend's game against Sunderland."
