Seeing you like to look at stats without context.

Bayern Munich covered almost 122km per match according to uefa. So more than us and PSG.

Having watched Harry Kane play for his whole career. Do you think he is covering that ground in the same way as Dominic Solanke?

All he has to do is jog around for 90mins. That’s his km covered stat.

All running is not equal my friend.

And a telling stat below about Solanke earlier in the season. Premier league not EL.

Pressures in final third this season:
Dominic Solanke 240Everybody else Under 175And he missed two matches. Absolute beast.#thfc #coys #spurs

Mate, at this point, we’ve been through the process of recruiting Solanke where we learned we needed a pressing CF and that Solanke is not only one of the hardest working but also most intelligent pressing forwards in world football.

Then we’ve seen him work his bollox off and heard Ange talk about it.

We’ve seen the team without him when he was injured…


If people still don’t see what Solanke does for us and how important he is, it’s because they don’t want to see it.

They are still crying he’s not Kane and Ange isn’t Poch. Even though we’ve won major silverware with Solanke and Ange but never did with Kane and Poch.

The bloke is a monster!
 
At every stage of the UEFA competition, you said "He's shite, he doesn't know what he's doing and he has absolutely no chance of winning against - whichever team we played against"

Now, he has won the bloody thing your opinion has massively changed from 'he can't' to 'the competition was shite'

Just not true, is it? I love when you lot make shit up.

I said we would beat AZ, Bodo and thought the final was a 50/50. I didn’t think we’d beat Frankfurt and that’s the only one you can talk about.

But yes, the competition is pretty shite. Hence why our finalists were 16th place. Hope that fucking helps mate.

Yeah mate but with Kane and Poch we were clashing heads with the likes of Madrid in Europe (and beating them) and finishing on 86 points in the prem, not finishing 17th and throwing everything at the ropey league.

Such embarrassing shite. You really think if the peak Spurs side with peak Kane had entered this years version of the EL and focused everything on it, we wouldn’t have won it? FFS you clowns, that Spurs team didn’t win the actual major European trophy only because we played 98 point Liverpool.

Kane’s Spurs were simply fighting in higher weight classes.
