Why is Harry Kane’s free kick record so bad? Pundits come up with bizarre golf theory as shocking stats revealed

PUNDITS have come up with a bizarre golf theory to question why Tottenham star Harry Kane's free-kick record is so bad.
The 29-year-old only has one goal from a free-kick from 56 attempts in 312 Premier League appearances.
That's a success rate of just 1.78 per cent, according to Opta.
Despite this, he's Spurs' free-kick taker, stepping up from anywhere around the 18-yard box with a realistic chance of a shot on goal.
Ex-footballers Jason Cundy and Jamie O'Hara questioned why Kane is so poor from free-kicks despite his ruthlessness in front of goal.
O'Hara's main explanation is that Kane is an instinct player.
But when taking free-kicks, Kane has more time to think about where he wants to place his shot, which doesn't work out quite so well for him.
O'Hara said on talkSPORT: "Why is he [Kane] so bad a free-kicks though? I've got a philosophy around why he's so bad at free-kicks.
"Harry Kane, when you watch him play, everything is instinct. You know, he's got instinct. Striker's instinct. His first touch.
"Everything is about his brain moving quickly. When he takes free-kicks, he's got a moment to set himself, he's got time, he thinks about it, he has to think about the technique."
But former Chelsea and Tottenham ace Cundy has questioned why Kane's so bad with free-kicks when he's good at golf, where both balls are hit from a stationary position.
Cundy said: "Is he any good at golf?"
Kane is a good golfer and has taken part in an event called Icons Series, featuring sports stars from around the world.
Cundy continued: "Well then, what's the difference? Because the ball's still.
"Here's the thing about golf, right. So a moving ball, yes it comes at you, you can time it.
"Golf, the ball doesn't move. The ball doesn't move, it's there. The ball's not going anywhere. It's going to stay there, 'just hit me'."
Cunded concluded: "Set-pieces outside the box, he can't strike it over a wall.
"You're talking about going over a wall or around the wall.
"Unless I'm wrong, is there a wall in a penalty? Is there a wall in a penalty or not, or am I going crazy?"
O'Hara said: "He has got to be the worst-best free-kick taker ever.
"He's classed as the best free-kick taker in Spurs' team because he's always taking free-kicks. He's the worst free-kick taker I've ever seen."
Kane's woes from free-kicks hasn't stopped him from becoming Spurs' joint-top scorer in the club's history.
The England captain's winner over Fulham on Monday was goal No266 for Spurs, drawing level with the late, great Jimmy Greaves.
It was also Kane's 199th Prem goal in just 312 appearances.

Peak incisors?If we're talking best peak then Luis Suarez was better than all of them.
I think Suarez was an incredible talent, but I remember peak Shearer and he was a monster.Suarez should've had a Ballon d or with Barca. That last season with Liverpool he almost single-handedly dragged a not very good team led by an OK manager to a league title. 31 league goals and 12 assists in 33 games despite not being on penalties. Insane.*
His peak was the best I've ever seen in terms of just being a one-man wrecking ball. Kane's ridiculously consistent though and has the best Premier League legacy because he's been doing it since a pretty young age and is still going strong.
*Also 40 goals 16 assists in 35 La Liga games at his peak, and 8 in 3 in the CL. That's the season he was Ballon d'Or worthy.
Debatable but not for me. Shearer was ridiculous for a couple of seasonsKane in his prime was better than both imo and possibly the best CF of the modern age

It was just an observation, Aguero was something else. Sorry someone pissed on your chips.Blah blah blah. And if Kane had had around him the players Sergio did, he'd be on 500 PL goals.
The spitting does it for me everytime
I look forward to our honorary win in 10 years time. Do you think we’d still do the open top bus parade?I've just had an incredible thought.
If City get punished and the punishment is their titles are awarded to the next team, we should be pushing the PL to look at Chelsea. Who we finished runner up to. Apply the same logic, we get their title and Harry hasn't wasted his career!
Perfect logic IMO
