Ex-Spurs Player Harry Kane

[Sonofa]

Has looked better the last few weeks. Put in somebody that can consistently get their head up in the final 3rd and find his feet and we'd see him banging them in for fun again.

He's at least finding himself in the right positions the last few games, I just think that creative midfielder we're lacking is a massive hinderance.

 

[Go on son]

A net zero transfer involving Kane and Vlahovic would be acceptable to everyone at this point. Levy must be cursing the day when he turned down 100mil for kane from city,

And youd still be whinging then that we only got 100 mil for him

Yeah my thoughts exactly.

He looks sharp, the last few big chances (including that very unfortunate ‘offside’ goal vs Southampton) he’s put away ruthlessly. His first touch and finishing has been back on form, and he’s also looking more mobile. Numerous moments where he’s powered past defenders.

But we can’t be giving our main striker this kind of service. The quality of crosses in to the box needs to radically improve, and let’s not get started on the lack of incisive passing from midfield.

Maybe Conte is the guy to finally get a tune out of GLC. Seems like he really doesn’t fancy Ndombele.

You fundamentally fail to understand that shots don’t = service, so I don’t know what I can do for you I’m afraid.

If you think Kane having outside the box shots having beat 2 defenders to make space is other players servicing him with chances, you live in your own little world.

He’s had service in some games this season and failed. The last time that happened was against Liverpool. Against Palace he scored with the only chance given, against Southampton the same but bizarrely given offside, against Watford there were no chances. He had 0.26 xG from the entire game.

 

[Matt1882]

I don't disagree that we need to address the issue imminently - he's got 2-4 years left at the top level at best. But keeping him, trying to win whilst blooding a replacement alongside him is the better option.

The problem with this is that he'll be next to worthless by then. I don't trust our scouts to find a cheap consistent goal scorer and I don't trust Levy to cough up for a known, proven one.

It's why I've said it doesn't matter so much who we have up front, whether it's Kane, Vlahovic or prime Batistuta. Our current team and lack of creativeness will hinder any striker. That's not to say that Harry himself isn't also responsible as he has missed chances you would normally expect him to bury. But I feel for any forward we have or will bring in with our current midfield and full-backs.

But at least now the whole "he's not trying", "he's now a Doncaster player" narrative has died down a lot.

I’ve never claimed shots equal service, but you’re talking as if all his shots are from outside the box.

Also, players shooting from long range doesn’t equate to poor service.
Kane took as many long range shots with a prime Eriksen and Dele behind him

You just said he’s had service in some games and failed.
That’s what I’m talking about. Weird you agree but argue against it.

 

[Luvf]

There was a shot he took and missed to the right in front of wide open Son early in the game. In form Kane would have scored or passed to Son who clearly was open and would have had easier shot for the net. Kane is better and getting better since Conte though. Whether he stays orleave I have high hope in Conte finding the optimal football for the team

 

[BringBack_leGin]

when he wants to he can make good passes but then there is the selfish prick in him that doesn't seem to care about the team. for example, why is he insisting on taking our free kicks when he obviously suck at it??

Click to shrink...

He definitely souls be off free kicks for good, and given that he says himself that he’d rather Have team accolades than personal accolades. It’s strange that he keeps taking them. I can only think that in training everyone else is even worse at free kicks.

I don’t think it’s fair to call him selfish generally though. He’s made more big chances and more let passes than any other Spurs player this season despite having a poor season by his standards.

He has an open chance to score yesterday but was way wide of the target. Also had Son lurking in the middle. Should have done a lot better there.

“Kane is the only player that doesn’t receive service. Son gets perfectly fine service and is the reason why he has 8 open play goals…”

I wonder what comes next?

But we only create big chances 35 yards out

 

[sammyspurs]

Joint 4th highest big chances created yet same amount of goals scored as Brentford who are 15th in big chances created

Less goals than Palace who have created less big chances

But apparently getting shots off has nothing to do with supply……….except when Kane misses then it’s because of the supply

yes, his actions suggest that the rest is just talk. I've seen training shots of both Son and Dier doing very well on free kicks and both have scored in games.

Not sure he created more chances than all other players? What do you base that on?

Dunno how this is so confusing. Kane has had overall a shit season but has come out of that in recent games and has been finishing well.

Did you have an issue with his finishing against Southampton, Palace or Watford? Because we created maybe 2 chances for him in all those games. He was predicted barely a quarter of an xG against Watford.

In recent games WHEN GIVEN CHANCES he has looked clinical. This doesn’t excuse the horrific season he was having beforehand, but I’m still not blaming him for not scoring vs Watford when the team creates fuck all in that particular game.

He should’ve hit the target for sure but by xG it was far from a big chance. And that was it. If a 0.10 xG chance is the best thing you create for your CF all game then you have problems.

He did very well to test the keeper from outside the box. Son had the best chance of the game and missed it.

Don't fall under the same trap that I did. Sammyspurs is nothing but a troll and for some weird reason, NDomBadBoy, who generally has a bit more sense, humours him like he has some kind of weird crush. Whatever you post, they will twist, miss chunks out (the parts they can't argue against) or even just completely make things up that you never said. Especially sammyspurs.

Oh I know. I knew it would return as soon as he didn’t score for a game again as well, it’s all very predictable.

It’ll quieten down when he scores again, and then knives back out at any opportunity. At least the ‘he’s physically done’ shite has died off a bit, but then anyone with eyes can see that was a load of nonsense.
