LOL
Is this serious? There isn't a more criticized player on this site than Kane.
LOL
I'd like to introduce you to the Winks thread, anyways it's hilarious you never actually question why Kane is being criticised.
Probably not, but we can talk all day about the reasons why. When you're the top scorer and top assister in the league the previous season, have a great international tournament over the summer and score at will in qualifiers, you're clearly not shit.
We've just got to find a way to get him back to his best in our shirt.
Oh, I don't think he's shit at all, and I sincerely hope Conte can 'unlock' him.
I just fear he's been poor for a decent run of games now, and I think we should balance our desire for wanting the Kane of old back with also accepting that it's OK to take him off.
Signing a new striker would be a good investment and give Kane some competition to fire him up.
100%
We're moving away from Harry Kane ball and he's now once of the pieces, not the centerpiece. Player's aren't just looking for him anymore and we're better off because of it. Looks like our mission on attack has changed from "look for Kane in and around the box" to "look for the open player."
I'd have to say that going forward, under Conte, Son is going to be the man getting the most chances/opportunities given his pace/movement and runs. He better be ready to step up and put his shooting boots on.

That's entirely fair, and I don't disagree.
This is about as best as I can do to intellectually contribute right now to this debate about his performances this season compared to last...
He's gone from a consistent 8.6 to a 6.4 per game.

You're incredibly boring, like go and dislike some more of my posts or something.
So as usual no answer to your nonsense post.
He literally put son on a plate to score and he fucked up and your all having another got at him.....I get it when he doesn't score and others play better around him, but when others fuck up chances he creates then don't go straight to this thread to have another go at just him ffs
Ehh... one pass that didn't lead to an assist doesn't really get talked about that much.
See below. Lucas, Dier etc. have all put it on a plate for Kane this season but they're generally taking it up the a$$ every game. No one ever talks about their passes that didn't end up as assists.
Every touch was painful, he’s a world away from 3 years ago in his all round play (goals aside). Still captain of my FPL team but I’m starting to worry personally
Spot on. I genuinely don't think he will ever again be as prolific as he once was. He looks like a 1 in 3 man now.
It's hard to disagree with what you're saying based on what I've seen of him this past few months. Hopefully it's just a crisis of confidence...!
Every player has their detractors and I believe I've seen enough to know that's certainly true for Lucas and Dier in the past before Conte took over. I like both of them and they get their fair share of criticism. Overall I think the criticisms are fairly evenly distributed but in Kane's case he's getting it more due to his antics in the summer and a big drop in performance this season. So yeah I wouldn't think too much of it it's just due to circumstances.
Thought he was generally fine again without standing out, and obviously scoring. We've flogged him year after year and we're desperate for another decent forward, someone who can partner him or replace him in games like this to give him a break. He's clearly no longer the machine he was. The ability is still there, just not the confidence that goals bring at the moment.
The ability is still there yes. However, I have not been thinking of Kane a player that can lose confidence easily over a goal drought 15 games in. It's just not clicking for him at the moment but regardless when the goals come or not don't think it's related to his confidence at all.
