The Harry Kane jokes have gone well overboard in terms of them becoming unfunny, but one man who is definitely entitled to making one is Christian Eriksen.
After all, it was the Dane who swung in the free-kick which Kane claims he got a touch on against Stoke City a few weeks back.
And so when the pair took in a series of football challenges for Soccer AM, Eriksen couldn't resist a cheeky dig.
Unhappy with not getting a point for one of his efforts, Kane said: "There were a few dodgy decisions but that's the way football can be sometimes."
That prompted his teammate to say: "He might appeal it!" - despite Kane and his manager, Mauricio Pochettino, being stood right next to him.
Kane and Pochettino seemed to be fine with the harmless bit of banter, but the Spurs boss says he was affected by it the endless memes.

"Harry was very sad. But he's strong in his mind," he said in a press conference.
"He's moved on. We are helping him to move on. It was a mistake and he needs to move on quick."
Pochettino also said he was unhappy with the tweet the official FA Cup twitter account sent out mocking Kane during Saturday's semi-final.
The tweet, which has since been deleted, was a gag at how Chris Smalling had pocketed the 24-year old.

Asked about the controversial tweet, the Argentine replied as per The Telegraph:
"It was embarrassing, no? It was a shame because the FA is English football and Harry Kane is a potential captain in the World Cup. It is difficult to understand, very difficult and they have apologised about that.
"The situation disappointed me. The fact it happened, then they apologised after a few days. But move on. That is the reality. We need to protect our assets, our English players, our young players."
