Nah. I agree a player is playing poorly, nothing else. I don't think he's done at the top level, or it's the end of him.
How come that argument used to work for Kane though two months ago.
Now Kane is just “playing shit”
Hmmm Despite everyone criticising kane for his behaviour and performances this season. Your problem is we all wont buy into your agenda that hes been shit for years. Get over it and move on ffs. Same thing over and over every time anyone comes into this thread
Now you agree. You didn’t before, you blamed his teammates and the manager
The way we play still doesn't suit a CF, that's for sure. But it doesn't benefit Son either, or Lucas. Our entire attack has no service, which are contributing factors. But I always said Kane was playing poorly in his own right, and elements of his game were off.
He's having a bad season, it happens. Players can have terrible seasons and recover.
When Son has a good game it's one of the following excuses:
"No service."
"[Insert manager]'s fault."
"Moura/Ndombele/GLC/Dier/Regi/Bergjwin's shit."
"Our defense is the problem."
"He's been carrying the team for 50 years, he can't do it all himself."
"HE JUST HAD A BABY!"
etc.
etc.
etc.
etc.
Being the slowest player and having the worst movement on the pitch doesn't reverse itself.
Especially in your late 20s.
He is not a player who relied on blistering pace. He has always been a plodder since he broke through. He just need to find the knack of scoring goals again. This is the first time in his career he is going through a lean patch.
But. You didn’t think he was terrible a few weeks ago and called people shit fans for saying he was
Get it?
Citation needed. Again.
He genuinely thinks it’s a blip despite it being systematically outlined to him over 400 times that the decline has been over three seasons.
They all screamed Golden Boot last month.
Now they don’t
He knows full well what he’s about
Top assister too, but yeah he was fully in decline all of last season!
He had two off seasons due to ankle injuries, last year was the most productive player in the Premier League by a distance. Even in his off seasons he would've been on course for 20+ league goals despite injuries.
This is his only genuinely bad season at the club, and it's not even a full season. So yes, I think it's a blip.
I would agree with that. But if you follow any player that's in decline, it follows the same path of regression:
1. Loses a step = Struggles to perform against top teams
2. Loses 2 steps = Struggles to perform against good teams
3. Loses 3 steps = Struggles to perform against average teams
4. Loses 4 steps = Struggles against almost every team
5. In the MLS
I think last season, he was at stage 1 or 2 so he was still a very productive player overall, primarily against average/poor teams.
Now, it looks like he's declined to stage 3 and pushing for stage 4. We're still seeing him put in good/decent performances against ECL level competition as well as Newcastle but he's struggled against every average/good PL side.
This similar regression happened to Rooney at the same age.
Yet you can never actually back up any of this shit. You just throw mud at the wall and hope it sticks. 'You said I was a gooner, you said I was a shit fan for saying Kane was playing bad, waaa waa' .. it's just invention after invention.
I see you do it with other posters too, you take something they might have said then warp it. Pathetic.
Yes
Additionally when it's argued he hasn't got the quality around him like Erikson etc it needs to be explained why he was so ineffective playing for England in the Euro's.
