Kane is probably the best player in the history of the club. He’s not some random striker we sold ffs.

It’s hard to just dismiss him, especially when we sold him without any replacement.

Never in a million years is Kane the best player in the clubs history!
One of the best, maybe, but dont forget Greaves, who clinically was a better finisher!

Okay then what about 2 years ago? 6 goals in 33 games?

Look, I’m just saying, there’s nothing wrong with being sceptical. I hope the lad smashes it and last year wasn’t a one off.

6 goals and 7 assists while playing for a relegation contender is completely fine, since then Bournemouth changed their system to be more attacking and he flourished.

Wrong.

He has played 8 PL seasons in his career.
2 separate seasons in the Championship.

If you try and make a mug of someone, at least have your facts correct.

He's aged 26 now so if you want to try to get stats from 8 PL years whilst ignoring 2 championship years, then you are going back 10 years to when he was aged 16.

That's just idiotic - and never thought anyone would be so stupid so didn't bother to check.

Hoddle is definitely better for Starters, contributed directly to silverware.

And I’m taking Bale at his peak performance for Spurs.

Ledley King had one knee and shutdown Didier Drogba when there was a trophy to be won.

He ran off to the one of the few clubs where it’s actually harder to not win and somehow he managed that. Let’s not forget how crap he was at the Euros as well.

Kane simply isn’t that guy and there’s a venn diagram of Spurs fans who forever go on about wanting to look and appear like a big club, but at the same time act like that serial loser is bigger than it.

Apparently Solanke is some sort of gooner.

''With Bournemouth striker Dominic Solanke having been heavily linked with a move to Tottenham in recent weeks, his links with Woolwich have emerged.

This is not just because of the fact that Woolwich are also interested in him, but also because the Gunners were his first love in football owing to his father being a fan of the North London Reds.''

Boooo! I want a Matt Doherty type video and a groveling apology before he dons our glorious shirt.

Do you think Davies will play LCB in the EL, or do we need someone else to rotate with VDV?

I'm guessing Dragusin will play RCB in the EL to rest Romero.

I think we need to move on from Davies.

I'd alternate rotating Drag with Romero and VDV so that they both get some rest but we always have a solid pairing.

Gray - Drag - VDV - Spence
Gray - Romero - Drag - Spence
​
Maybe Donley get some minutes if he sticks round and Spence moves to RB.

This team would do very well in EL:

Vic
Gray - Drag - VDV - Spence
Bentancur
Kulu - Bergvall
Moore - Richy - Werner
