I'm not saying Kane wasn't a good player during the 16/17 season and of course he deserves praise and he was praised by his teammates, managers etc. He was great.
But basing my claim on what our actual players were saying. I will repeat it again.
All of our Spurs players that were asked the question regarding who our best player was said 'Dembele' without hesitation. Dele, Rose, Moura, Dier, Wanyama, Winks etc.
So if our best player Dembele was never widely considered world class would another player on our team be considered world class? I don't get that logic at all.
Remember, Pep rated Winks and Sir Alex rated Dele so I'd take things with a grain of salt when it comes to managers. They can be wrong just as fans can.
