Still he was outpacing many of their players. He needs longer rests between games than he used to. Completely idiotic to not have a second striker.

No matter how many times you omit penalties, it will still remain the case that penalties are very important and are given to the best finishers.
Say, doesn't that Lewandowski fellow take nearly all the Bayern league and CL penalties and has done so for 8 seasons?
Padding his stats, clearly...
Looks like he‘s got that hunger back. The goals will follow
Knackered? They haven't played since January the 8th, what the fuck is tiring them out?
Also, Leicester B team? They were missing Ndidi and Vardy who I doubt had any impact on Kane. What world class defenders did they have which would've come in and stopped him playing? Fofana's not been available all fucking season. They did a number on Liverpool recently with a a very similar lineup, I guess Salah should've been scoring five if them being tired was making Kane look quick.
No he didn't. He looked like he had space to work in because in this system Conte's wingbacks get that, same with Emerson. He just fucked up the final ball a lot, whereas Kane was oozing quality whenever he had it.
Comparing his impact with Doherty's is straight up laughable. He was majestic tonight.
Leicester B team, haha.
Sounds like NDomNumbNuts is in proper troll mode tonight. He tries so hard to be another version of sammyspurs, bless him.
They were missing Evans, Vardy, Castagne, Harvey, Ndidi etc
The team looked quite slow and knackered. I’m not the only one that mentioned it - there were a lot of people that mentioned it in the match thread.
*I have Ndom on ignore but still read all his posts and they still trigger me
Yes mate they were depleted, as were we.
Son / Romero / Dier etc.
Harry was very good today apart from the second chance he missed. He was moving better, held up the ball quite well, dropped back when need be and above all, seemed ecstatic with the win.
I've been critical of Harry, but today he was excellent.
This is the most important part . Hes never going to be a bad footballer. But when he isnt moving enough, or moving slow, he is very easy to defend against. Today he was moving like a normal premier league striker and then his qualities show.
The kane we've had in most of the games this season upto now hasnt been good enough. Hopefully hes back to normal.
Your first point is valid. I don’t think the Bundesliga is that far below the EPL.
Your last point is irrelevant. The quality of the league is one of many factors that contribute to differences in performance when a player switches leagues.
Hazard has been shit since he moved to RM, even when he has been healthy. There are other top PL players that have been shit in their new leagues. Many players from other leagues have gotten to the PL and had immediate success, including CR7.
It's worse, significantly so. Look at their co-efficient rankings in recent years, they're carried almost entirely by Bayern, and even then falling off a cliff overall. Rangnick recently spoke about how much better teams are in England compared to Germany as well.
Teams here have more money (by far) to spend on coaches and players. That almost always leads to better teams barring a few sides who play their cards badly. That doesn't mean the Bundesliga is a farmers league or a totally alien level, but it is a step down.
Comparing Kane with Lewandowski is okay including pens since both of them takes it for their teams.
Son doesn't really take any penalties so its not fair to includes Kane's penalties when you are comparing the two for goals. Its not like Son cannot score on penalties, he does it for his national team. Kane just gets the nod since he is our striker and has been taking it before Son came to Tottenham.
Oh of course. It's just tiresome when he keeps leaving them out to make Kane's stats look worse.
I think his head has finally clicked back into gear.
Great performance today all said.
He sniffs champions league football again now and it’s put a spring in his step.
If he can take this kind of form forwards, I wouldn’t bet against this being another 20 goal season even with his atrocious early season form.

Converting 1 of 10 shots including missing couple of big chances isn't exactly what I'd call majestic
A well rounded yet wasteful performance might be a more accurate description.
He was basically our Maddison, with more wasted opportunities.
