I remember a performance from him away at Anfield he was great got us a point. He was brilliant at Old Trafford a year ago. There's an utterly false narrative that he doesn't perform against top teams. The entirety of his career not the injury ravaged last year and a half some seem desperate to use to define him. Still a glorious player for two years he was a definitively world class player. I say this whilst acknowledging he is short of what he was.Most of his critics were predicting a tour de force from him today. Games against the likes of Bournemouth, Southampton and Brighton at home are where most of his big performances over the past two years have been. He was exceptional today. I’d be hoping for more of the same when Liverpool come visiting on 11 January.
More like a player who was very unhappy with how things had gone so far and desperate to score another goal as it was only the 1-1 and we clearly needed the 3 points.After the goal he was clearly unhappy with the fans. Didn’t run and celebrate with them and almost angrily waved us away. At least that is what I saw.
No, he was trying to get an improvement on the quiet atmosphere by asking fans to lift it.After the goal he was clearly unhappy with the fans. Didn’t run and celebrate with them and almost angrily waved us away. At least that is what I saw.
Hope he stays as captain.
He's still world class. Just, for a while there he was starting to put up Messi/Ronaldo-level scoring stats.I remember a performance from him away at Anfield he was great got us a point.

Don't think so, it's more a testament to Dele now having more freedom to get into the box...Possibly a little dig at Dele in there as well, but that's fair after his last couple of performances (his goal yesterday was amazing though).
Yeah Liverpool and Woolwich fans are cunts...because that's who voted...Embarrassing fanbase

Just shows how good Kane really is. Only 5 players in the last 16 years have had better single calendar years in terms of goal inolvolvement than him.
And within that time only two players (the two best footballers of the last decade) have scored more in a single year.
He may (=probably will) become our 2nd highest goalscorer of all time this season.
Bobby Smith's goals to game ratio was phenomenal-Harry's is better.

Those seasons, though... wow. Messi and Ronaldo.
113 goals in 2012? That has to be an error.
