Ex-Spurs Player Harry Kane

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

You say overall Kane is shit. A statement which is simply untrue.

Thus you have, undermined all other points, that you have to make on the matter.

We're not as good a team as Liverpool et al not because of Kane.
Actually I’ve said Kane is world class on his day…..shall I show you all the quotes where I’ve said that?

He’s been utter shit this season, maybe you disagree with that?

Being world class only against Albania isn’t world class per se
 
haters gonna hate GIF

He's been shit so far this season but you've been arguing that Spurs are better off without Kane full stop.

I'm not arguing whether or not Kane is world class, I'm just saying not scoring against the top 4 doesn't equate to being shit. Which seems to be your argument that it does so.

I don't care if Kane never scores against Liverpool or Chelsea et al, his goals have helped us beat or draw against 'lesser teams' who outplayed us. Reference - most of last season.

I haven’t said Kane is shit because he doesn’t score against the top 4.
I’ve said he’s not world class because he can’t produce in big games against big clubs.

I’ve said he’s shit this season, nothing whatsoever to do with the top 4.

I think we will be better off selling Kane at this point and stand by that despite him scoring against Albania.
That doesn’t mean I think we would have been better off without him between 2015-2020 though. But he should have been dropped for playing poorly and rotated during those years, like anyone else.

You really should care. Scoring against those teams would have led to some trophies instead of losing cup finals and semis to then all the time
 
If he doesnt score agains the top teams , we will never win anything. We need our striker to be turning it on in the big games.
We need the whole team to do so and not just expect Kane to be the saviour. Let's face it the Kane/Son combo has been carrying spurs for about 2 or 3 years now, it's why Son's form dropped at the end of last season and is imo still below his usual.

When's our midfield going to start chipping in with goals? Because all the top teams have superior defences and as long as they can keep Son and Kane quiet we don't have anything else.

So I care more that we beat these teams as a whole team and don't want to rely on Son and Kane carrying.

Now if the rest of the team is making chances for Kane against Liverpool et al, then I would expect him to score but as they're not I don't care that he isnt.

I hope that clarifies what I meant.

You're back peddling from Kane is shit to Kane isn't world class.
 
He will probably be bang average for us in our next game. I've said it before and will continue to do so, our current side will make any striker look much, much worse than he is. Until we actually sign some creativity he won't shine no matter what his mental state is. Put genuine quality in the same team as him and his own genuine quality will come to the fore. Good players play much better with better players around them, and that won't ever change.
Not sure what quality creative players england had yday except foden and he wasn’t really involved in kanes goals.

Creativity needn't merely equate to the proverbial killer pass..... Breaking oppo lines and creating time and space on the ball can be equally as effectual when trying to break an oppo down; if not more so.

See Moussa Dembele providing the canvas upon which Eriksen could paint.

As for last night it's also rare for a mid-low quality team to come at you like Albania did.... It's like Howe's B'mouth coming at you.... Unless they have the perfect performance; good teams will rip them apart.

Albania were crap yesterday. Set up wrong from the off, Yeovil would have put two past them in that first half. But Kane looked much sharper than he has so far this season. Just need to see a bit of that attitude for us.
 
If it was so easy against Albania, why didn't Tammy Abraham do ANYTHING when he came on. He couldn't hold the ball up, did a ridiculous dive that the ref ignored, he just looked a gangly average player. That's the same guy Trevor Sinclair said was better than Kane! He did nothing except show how great Kane is.

By opening up the day before Kane got rid of some demons and it showed. He will shut up any critics and rotten Tottenham fans on this forum just wait and see.

Lewandowski only got 1 in the 2 games he played vs Albania too, so it can't be that fucking easy!
 
Just below world class isn’t crap

He was showing world class form but time showed that he is just below world class overall as a player

My position is crystal clear.
Kane is just below world class and off form.

He’s not shit he’s just not world class

While Kane is a special player, he still has flaws and if we want, we can see them every season.
On his day, world class

He’s not a fraud
He’s world class on his day, his general level is just below world class, and he’s off form.

Kane is world class on his day. Said it a million times

I think he’s world class on his day, but his day is about 1/3 of a season every year since about 2018

Shall I keep going?

Dear oh dear you people are so easy to refute it’s actually embarrassing doing this to you
