Bull's-eye Posted March 26, 2022 Share Posted March 26, 2022 Kane has been pish since the Euros up until about 6 weeks ago. Since then he's nearly been as good as Simms with his workrate. He'll score loads though and should always thank Jammy Muckdonut for showing him that missing from the spot on your debut doesn't define your career.

smiler Posted March 26, 2022 Share Posted March 26, 2022 (edited) Apparently he was the top assist provider in the EPL season 20-21. 178 goals from 270 apps for Spurs, 49 goals from 68 apps for England. Diving cheat, but he gets the goals, and the assists. Edited March 26, 2022 by smiler Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Famous 1874 Posted March 26, 2022 Share Posted March 26, 2022 He is unbelievable. Can do it all. Probably the best passer and finisher in the division, in my opinion. Needs a move away from Spurs though. I admire the loyalty but despite having Conte and some other good players - Son, Romero being the standouts I still can’t see them winning anything. Still convinced he will get his move. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

frankblack Posted March 27, 2022 Share Posted March 27, 2022 I think the biggest mistake with Kane is staying at Spurs. If he had taken that move to City he would have a frightening goal tally already this season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ri Alban Posted March 27, 2022 Share Posted March 27, 2022 If it wasn't for Son hed be average, and I'd score more than Bobby if I was the striker for England. BC wasn't really the main striker. Hurst, Greaves etc... were. Anyway, not for me , if I had the choice. The big Pole is the best around and the french lad is superior anaw Anyway as Souness would say on behave of Bobby"Where's yer medals?"

boag1874 Posted March 27, 2022 Share Posted March 27, 2022 He is a very good striker but is also way, way overrated by the English media, heard several pundits call him the best centre forward in the world over the years which has never, ever been the case.
