You missed the joke - I'm ridiculing xG boy here

I love how you're so behind the times that you think utilising xG is somehow worthy of mockery, when it's basically used everywhere now. Turn on match of the day and you'll see it, go look at any post-match review page and it'll be there.

Every football analyst, pundit, coach, whatever will use xG. But you're stuck in the 80's and you think people moving with the times is funny.

Kane isn't the type of striker to take the ball from his own half and carry it to the opposition's box. In the same way Vardy isn't the kind of striker to get his back to goal and ping a pass perfectly to a wide player. Every striker has their strengths and weaknesses than the team play around, which we did terribly in that final.

The players who don't have any notable weaknesses are generational, Ballon d'or talents, which Kane isn't, and I don't think anyone on here thinks he is.

Mate people on here will never get that some players don't have pace and can't burst past players or use general physicality to conjure up chances from nothing.

Saw similar shit said about Eriksen.
Instead of demanding better players or tactics involving people making space/runs to make use of Eriksen's vision and world class passing the argument became why can't he grab a game by the scruff off the neck, what they mean is why can't he drive with the ball like Bale.

I’m not detracting from any point.
Kane has a low shot accuracy and so does Drogba

Hahaha “see how this could have been avoided, if you just agree with me”

Hahahaa and you actually mean it

No he doesn't. Told you why.

Yeah, this is why loads of people turn to personal insults with you, because actually engaging with any point you make is futile. You're never going to accept you're wrong about something at all. Kane doesn't have low shooting accuracy, but you're going to keep repeating it because it suits your agenda.

In brackets after saying 'Kane has low shooting accuracy' can you at least put (as do Rooney, Aguero, Henry, Van Persie etc) so people know your point is fucking stupid. Thanks.

My stance on Kane hasn't changed. He royally fucked me off this summer, and I'm still fucked off.

Doesn't mean I think he's turned into a shit footballer.

You're a disease Sammy. An insidious disease infecting everyone around you. Do everyone a favour and disappear. Disappear so you only have yourself for company and cannot impact harmfully upon the lives of others.

You add nothing to this forum, you add no value to the lives of others. You are insignificant. Now, do one, you absolute turnip. Daring to come back after you were rightfully turfed off. This forum, and everyone, is better off without you.

Take a hike.

And then was instantly disproved when compared to his peers. Either you think every great striker of the past decade had shit shooting accuracy, or you don't think Kane has shit shooting accuracy.

Which is it? Or are you going to tell me it doesn't matter now because Kane doesn't score against big teams or in cup finals, or something else equally irrelevant to the actual point?

Yeah because they’re the type of people who feel if they can’t force someone to agree with them, they turn to abuse.

You can side with that mentality all you like, I’m happy to argue my points.
I’ll call someone a cunt, happily. But not because they think Kane is world class.

You don’t understand that two people can both have a low shooting accuracy but one can be a better footballer than the other?

In which case you've neatly proven that your fictitious "low shot accuracy" is entirely irrelevant, it's the end result that matters which for strikers is goals and assists - now who is good at that?

This is you - Kane's rubbish because he has low shot accuracy - low shooting accuracy doesn't matter when deciding who's a better footballer ... make your frickin' mind up ...

FYI - The two EPL teams with the most shots OFF TARGET in the last two seasons are Man City and Liverpool .... you still think that shooting accuracy means all that much?

It’s irrelevant for those other strikers because they are world class

But for Kane it’s just another area where he’s lacking
I’ve named those areas so you can say Golden Boot if you want

It’s not difficult

Which has precisely NOTHING to do with the point that Kane has low shot accuracy, which he doesn't! Which has literally been proven, and you've inadvertently admitted to now!
