Livramento has been awful. As has Gordon.

Kane just looks a sorry state these days, so heavy legged and lacking in any oomph. It can't always be blamed that he doesn't get the service. It would help if him and Bellingham stayed up top, rather than coming deep to make pointless stat padding passes.

Football is and has always been a 90 minute game.
 
The issue first half wasn't Kane. We simply moved the ball too slowly against a negative team with little ambition that had 10 and 11 men behind the ball. Second half even if they kept 11 men on the pitch they were always going to tire mentally and physically, and then gaps appear.
 
Solanke coming on to get injured

Turn over at ht after boring first 45, turn back over at 73min and Wankhornland are 3-0 up. How did that happen?

Oh fuck off bringing Solanke on.

Ooh and Wankhornland score again.

Uh, we have loads and loads of insanely talented footballers who sort of just switch it on and then when they do there’s not much many teams can do to live with it.

Hard concept as a Scot, I know…
 
It's borderline insanity how much people seem eager to criticise him for anything and everything.

He's possibly the only number 9 in world football capable of his assist.

He can’t move anymore, so it’s very easy to criticise him. Ball to feet and there’s pretty much nobody who can do more than him with it.

I just think we need alternatives and a succession plan. We seem to have and be doing that so I’m happy. We can’t always rely on him and sometimes need more strings to the bow.
