"Southgate's fault"
Or maybe he has long coyid?
Looks it. But why? I thought he was the player who got their first and stayed till last at training?
Quick blast of CeeBeeBees at the lodge before and after training innit.
God. Just send the under 23s or something. A joke having two of these minnows in the group.
I think Kane is in better shape than Rooney. For a starter, Kane's never been a big party goer - unlike Rooney. And all those "sex scandals" Rooney was involved in almost certainly took a toll on his mentality. Something Kane's avoided.
Rooney is just one example
Dozens of other players experiencing sharp declines by their late 20s
Take a look at their respective stats after peaking at 24/25 years old. They're eerily similar.
Kane was still peaking at 28 as he became last season's EPL's top scorer with 23 (+14 assists). Yes, he's had a dip in form, true, which is normal after a big mid-summer tournament (Euros 2021).
But you also have players like Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo, Lewandowski and Zlatan who are still top players even after their mid-30s
I've already explained what a normal decline looks like in the quoted post below. You can still be a productive player overall and still be declining. The first alarm bells is when a player starts to struggle against good sides which has been the case for Kane over the last 3+ seasons.
Thats a normal decline looks like in your opinion and your formula
My opinion doesn’t change the fact that Kane’s been shit as I correctly predicted
tbf I think he has been poor since pre CL final after his big injury. Admittedly he changed his game from out and out striker to dropping deep and being striker provider. But not great as he was.
As weve all said this season he has been shit.
But you revel in it is the difference
no you dumba$@ we shouldn't be dependent on Kane making through passes attempt to grown a brain please thats our midfield 's job.
So this is about ego then? Should have known.
No, I was hoping he'd score a goal today and predicted on the match thread that he'd get one but his form and physical state is beyond saving at this point.
No, it's pointing out an observation to a fanbase that seems to have been hypnotized by the Kane halo effect. Kane has been in decline for 3+ years now - it's statistically a fact and the eye test would tell you that he's physically declined. All declines start with a player being unable to perform against top/good teams, as was the case with Kane over the last 3+ years. It was only a matter of time before he hit a wall but even I didn't think the type of decline we've seen over the last 6-8 months was going to happen so quickly.
All this Kane talk has been like trying to tell scientologists that they're part of a cult but their response is that Tom Cruise is in fact a god and can do no wrong.

It's like he wants to be De Kane and play midfield ?
Unless we can sign another decent forward in Jan, we are stuck with the same problems
1. If he gets injured, no obvious replacement. But when we signed Bergy I thought he could play wing or CENTRAL! Now he has bulked out give him a go at C.F.?
2. If he keeps sulking about City move, he won't play well nor will we get the £120million to buy elsewhere
3. He will not stay up front !

Oh dear
Golden boot against the bottom 10 to no assists…….but they should have have been world class assists…….but they wasnt
I saw more shit passes than good ones, no shots, didn’t win a single header and can’t run
“But he did a cross rafter 45 minutes”
