Kane’s 23 goals directly contributed to 10pts last season and so far 4 goals to 5pts this season

Sons 17 goals contributed to 8pts last season and so far 8 goals to 10pts this season

Quite interesting that the winger is scoring more important goals while the striker is more about filling his boots with a goal or two in 6-1 and 3-0 wins

Kane may have contributed with a few points this season but he has arguably cost us even more points so it could be argued that his net contribution is actually negative.

Funny as usual but a coin has two sides my friend how many goals have kane scored that actually kills the game off might not be the winning goal but it kills the opponent off so the cannot come back in the game my bad nobody counts those.

Yes they were. He hasn’t missed a big chance in the last 3 premier league games. Hence why you’re grasping at including the shot he had vs Watford.

Probably a couple vs Liverpool, maybe one against Norwich or Brentford? But nothing from the last 3 matches, which coincides with him looking sharper all round.

But hey, I’d expect you to grasp like this. I mean you thought he was physically done, right? Finished at the top level etc etc.

FWIW, understat has a pretty good breakdown of 'chances' per match, per player. Not sure what you classify as a 'big chance', but Kane's attempts against Watford all have a very low xG rating (you'll need to filter by player). Of his 6 recorded attempts, the highest two were both rated 0.06.

Against Southampton he scored with a 0.76 xG attempt and missed three others rated at 0.4, 0.05 and 0.03.

Against Palace, he scored with a 0.43 and missed with a 0.06.

Against Liverpool, he scored with a 0.12, and missed with 0.48, 0.47, 0.1, 0.1 and 0.06

Yeah, although people in here will tell you the missed shot vs Watford was a ‘sitter’ somehow.

Thanks for the info.

I have to laugh. Every manager says that about their own players 😅 but when ours do it our own fans ridicule for it. Its called psychology. Built a player up get into his head. Make him believe hes better than he is.
Do you go around like mourinho killing their confidence saying theyre not good enough?? Great tactics altogether

Arguably Dier has been our best Defender this season and has made a lot less mistakes. I think Conte also said he had the ability to become world class not that he was.

I think his point was that just because Conte says something , its not necessarily true. He could just be saying nice things to make the players feel good. So just because Conte said something nice about Kane doesnt mean its his 100% honest opinion, it could just be another Dier can be worldclass type confidence builder nonsense.

Oh no from anyone else id agree but from ndombelly its a dig
 
Deluded Harry still thinks he will score from a free kick.

If he was at his dream club city he would not even get near ONE of them. At our club he steals almost every single one.

I will be happy the day he's sold.
