Ex-Spurs Player Harry Kane

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

But understandable given the enormity of the actual game

Kane assured Poch he was fit when he knew that he wasn’t but hoped for glory

Poch believed him and Lucas who got us to the final was left on the bench

Like I said on another thread
It’s all about Kane and fuck everyone else


I agree that the team was on the slide for various reasons but my point about Kane stands
Would you have told the coach nah i cant start bench me?? I think most people being honest with themselves in the biggest game of the clubs history would have said put me in im good.
Thats where the coach needs to say no youre on the bench and will be on 20 to go if needed
 
We'd get 1 point from city.

Even Winks can score a fluke from an even further range. So you cant stay we got 3 points because of Son vs Watford. That was just luck. A winger that had played instead of him could have done a fluke too.

Another winger instead of son might have done similarly as him. Hes been okay, much much better than Kane , but like i said, hardly setting the world on fire.
We have 3 other wingers on our team with a combined 1 PL goal contribution if i'm not mistaken. And I wouldn't say any of them have played particularly bad.

Yes I would have if I knew deep down that I wasn’t fit enough for my team and to do myself justice

That’s what Kane should have said

Poch should have said exactly that and started Lucas instead

So Kane was a cunt for demanding that he started and Poch was a bigger cunt for allowing it
 
Don't worry, I'll keep you posted on my progress because I know how much you're obsessed with it and can't quit bringing it up out of context.
I’m not bringing it up out of context nor am I obsessed with it

It’s you that’s whining about the football discussions on this Forum not me so I’m suggesting that you stay out of the football threads and stick to what you’re good at that is the Yank thread where you don’t have to talk football or Spurs
 
What I would do with Kane is invite himover to the Northern Territory, take him for a drive about 15 klms north of Alice Springs and go for a long walk in amoung some of oldest landmarks in the world. If you have any sort of chip on your shoulder this will wipe it off. You just stand there and take stock of yourself. We are only here for very minute time on this earth and this experience can motivate anyone to re-evaluate themsleves and do better.
 
Yeah, he was really, really poor last season. Useless, in fact.
Yaaaaaawn

33 goals
1 from open play against a top 4 team (when they were 16th)
28 against teams below us or EL/qualifiers
18 v bottom 10 and Stoke
The others, West Ham and Leicester

Not useless at all which is why it’s odd the reality is so scary to you that you can’t deal with it.
It’s good numbers for a tap in merchant who probably took over 250 shots in all competitions.
Just not a big game player

It may have been the wrong decision by Pochettino and the coaching staff, but it wasn't by Kane. Footballer willingly to play match isn't a bad decision, it's just what is expected of him. There's no blame that can be placed at his door.

And honestly, the team was on the slide before that. Our league form was crap the second half of the season, we were propped up by a cup run. A number of key players were on decline and Pochettino's time was coming to an end. Putting it all on that decision is extremely harsh.
Are you justifying a player lying to the medical staff and manager so he can play the final at the expense of the team and player who got us there?

Kane hadn’t played football for ten week.
Even if was Palace in the Carabou 3rd round he shouldn’t have started.
He was desperate to play, the club wrongly pandered to it. If he cared, he’d have admitted it wasn’t right.

Fit or not fit he wasn’t going to do shit against Liverpool in the CL final anyway. As we know clearly now, he disappears against any decent or good side.

I’d like to think that he wasn’t fit but even if we was fit, his performance was more or less in line with how he performs against top sides anyway.

Should have never been on the pitch except as a 80th minute impact sub

True, it was the same in the Euros final v Italy.

I just can’t believe that people think a player of Kane’s stature was simply picked on the day, and told “you’re fit” by the medical staff.

Another hilarious spin:
VICTIM KANE FORCED TO PLAY CL FINAL DESPITE HIMSELF DEMANDING HE START ON BENCH!!!!!
 
I support Spurs, we have Dier

See the difference Mick. Might not be a poster child, but at least he wants to be here and tries hard.
You've got a bloody funny way of showing it

Actually no. There's nothing funny about it, it's actually a pathetic way of showing it.

As much as I despise the Winks abuse, I can understand it to a degree

Your obsession with denigrating every aspect of Harry Kane's being is worrying because it's either you showing off how edgy a football pundit you really are are - "no player is safe from my super ANALytical football knowledge" or a view of your descent into mental health issues.

As if you were the only person that can see that Kane isn't as quick, as risk taking, as accurate, as good at shaving, as dedicated to the club, great at free kicks, etc etc

Most of all - despite being told by multiple posters what a crashing bore you are, for endlessly hobbyhorsing your obsession, or by being banned for it - you continue to show a complete lack of respect to other posters by continuing to do so.

Despite Gibbs being a spectacular twat with his bizarre football opinions - at least he knew how to take a hint and just go away.

That's you Sammy, you are actually worse than Gibbs.

Another one who thinks Kane = Spurs and can’t even see it himself

Serious question, you think Kane deserves more support than Winks?

Are you another fan who basis support on talent levels?
Did you support Kane’s Neville interview?
Did you support Kane not turning up for training?
