Frank Lampard has branded any questioning of Harry Kane's class as "a nonsense".
Chelsea boss Lampard hailed Kane as one of the world's best strikers, ahead of the Blues taking on the England captain's Tottenham side on Sunday.
Kane has already fired 13 goals in all competitions for Tottenham this term, and has added an extra creative dimension to his play.
Lampard admitted he remains stunned that anyone can question Kane's quality, ahead of Chelsea's Premier League clash with Spurs at Stamford Bridge.
"We can't look beyond that. It's a strength of theirs. It's not their only strength, they are strong around that in lots of different areas.
"But we also have to nullify those threats and make the most of our positives in our squad. And yeah I do want relationships, players getting relationships.
"With players like Son and Kane they have worked on that for a good few years now.
"And I suppose we're in the early stages of that, and yeah I would love our players to get in those kinds of relationships so they know what each other are doing and have that level of talent."
