Ex-Spurs Player Harry Kane

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

The numpties on here are those who talk about 30 goals when 10 are against Maccabi Haifa and Club Brugge etc, 16 or so against the bottom half, and two against a top 4 club

So you don't rate Haaland then I take it, from your ridiculous logic? Because the vast majority of his goals for Dortmund are against teams the level of Norwich.

My definition of world class is Zidane, Van Nistleroy, both Ronaldo’s, Maldini, Carlos, Bergkamp, Henry, Thuram, Ginola…..out Salah there if you want, maybe you wasn’t around when real talent was in abundance.

People can talk about Grealish if they want, just shows today’s levels, when the two best players on the planet are about 70 combined years old

I don't wanna derail the thread by making it about Salah too much, but he's as talented as nearly all the players you just listed. Football has just changed and Salah is a perfect example of a modern inside forward. Most Liverpool fans/ex players (old or young) have him down as one of their best ever already.

And I actually agree, Grealish is overrated. Good but not great player who City overpaid for.
 
World-class strikers have poor games sometimes. Even more so when clearly not fit. Or are you saying that all world-class players always perform in finals and in big games? If so then you need to give your head a bit of a wobble.
Kane has lost about 4 finals and 4 semifinals for club and country.
Maybe about time he turned up at the crunch if he “deserves” a trophy eh?

They may not always perform, but Kane has never scored a goal or played well in a final. I barely remember a semi final goal? Maybe a penalty here or there, genuinely done know

Kane has scored against all the top teams in the premier league with more regularity than any other Spurs players. He's scored against Real, Barcelona, Juve, Inter etc. How on earth are you suggesting he only scores against weak teams?

He might not score against them every time with a 100% success rate, but he scores against them more often than others do.

Dele tore Real Madrid apart too, but let’s talk about the present as that’s whats relevant shall we
 
Can we stop the debate over whether Kane is a class player?

It's getting repetitive and boring.
He's obviously a sensational player at his best, but hasn't turned up in cup finals, and it's hard to tell how much he or his team mates are responsible.

A far more relevant debate is what should we do with him now? His mentality hasn't been right as he wants to leave the club, and his form has dipped. Is it better to sell him to City, and if so, what price should we accept?
 
Out of interest:
33 goals in all competitions…

8 v Maccabi, Schkendia, Ludogrets, Plovdiv, Zagreb, Antwerp

So we’re down to 25
23 goals v Southampton, Everton, West Ham, Leicester, Burnley, Newcastle, Brighton, WBA, Palace, Wolves, Leeds, Fulham, Sheff Utd, Villa, Woolwich, Stoke

Of those 17 teams, 10 were bottom half, one Championship and 3 were relegated.
A further 2 finished below us

2 goals v Utd

Leicester was the only team currently sitting in the top 6 when Kane scored against them

I'm going to sum this up concisely. Kane is a class player. But he's playing like he doesn't give a fuck about being here. Probably because he doesn't give a fuck about being here.

So, there are 2 options.

A) Kane steps up, puts on his big boy boots and shows everybody the class footballer he is.

Or

B) We get him the fuck out of the club as as fast as possible.

There is no middle ground. No bullshit compromising, it's A or B.
