Probably for the same reason we are generally shit against the big sides. Because we don't have enough of the ball and don't create enough chances. Son scores more individual type goals than Harry, hence him scoring more.*

It's just the usual tactic he and sammyspurs use. If you say anything positive about Harry they seem to be seriously offended and start to rant about Son, and how he makes Kane look like Dave Nugent.

This thread is ruined. You cant praise kane or if you dont blindly attack him youre a fanboy or if he scores hes a flat track bully. If he plays poor itll be i told you so.
As was pointed out everyone is pissed off with kane over his behaviour in summer but most normal people can recognise what hes done and scored for the club without comparing to our other players. Especially son who is pretty much universally loved.
Agendas ruining it.

Maybe time admin stepped in

I cba to argue how statistics work so we'll just say that's the case for the sake of the argument.

So what you've got is Son having exceptionally high shooting accuracy vs basically every other big strikers career %. That doesn't remotely prove Kane's is low. All you've proved is that Son's is high.

Kane's is still, by every metric, very much in line with strikers of both his generation, and the past generation.

At what point do we just give this up and say his shooting accuracy % isn't low?

Why are you desperate for it to not be low, when you claimed before it was irrelevant

So Son is the only player you saw on that list?

Jiminez, a Mexican player that missed almost the entirety of last season, outscores the English golden boy against the top 4.

Unthinkable.

It's because there are a fair few fans here that genuinely wouldn't support us if Son left. More than likely Asian. They're clearly pissed that Harry has got a bit more attention in the past, what with being a local and also top scorer season after season. So deep down they can't stand him and want it to be all about Son.

I'm sure the Man City forum also has some weird cunts there because of Riyad Mahrez.

When did I claim it was irrelevant? I may have said shot accuracy % can be misleading, because you'd have to analyse where their shots were coming from for it to be interpreted in any singular way. It very much depends on what kind of shots the player being analysed is taking on.

And I'm not desperate for anything, I just wanted to see if you'd climb down from making an incorrect point. Instead you've doubled down, which tells me everything I needed to know. In 3-4 pages you'll probably claim Kane has a low shot accuracy % again, but still call it arguing in good faith.
 
Ay up. Here's here. Bet he and NDomBadBoy don't make a substantial post at the same time.

Hello, I am back.

How the fuck does any of this explain why Kane is or is not a flat track bully?

Why can’t he score goals against the Big 4 sides but score in bunches against Pacos, Mura, and relegation level PL sides?

Why hasn’t he scored more than Jiminez against them since 17-18 when Jiminez missed almost the entirety of last season?

New angle today mate.

If you take an average of the shots from EVERY SINGLE player in Serie A, it means Kane has a good conversion rate

Narrative #4 of the Kane Cult:

If a person doesn't think Kane is world class, they are either weird Asian Son supporters that are jealous of Kane's success or Woolwich supporters.
