Really?
It looks to me that Kane has himself in the shop window as a playmaker to compliment an elite striker.
Kane - De-Bryne - Foden all feeding Halland will be probably the greatest attacking line up ever.

All those goals and assists yet Jude was miles ahead as a footballer. Its evident to anyone who watched both.
The only thing I'd say Dele had over Bellingham at the same age was the ability to be in the right place at the right time.
Bellinghams a better athlete, a better footballer, better engine, better passer, stronger and much better technique.
19 year old Dele doesn't start for this England team in central midfield and boss games against all comers. Because it was never his game.
And because of that he doesn't even get in the starting eleven. He's no where near Foden as a footballer and he's not a winger.
not sure to be honest, it's been so very long since Dele was good that we all tend to either just remember his last few seasons were he was awful or a the seasons were he was still good but was just about popping up with a goal, and getting assists.
Think we often forget how truly awesome he was at his age, the way people are talking about JB now is the way Dele was being talked of.
And he was doing it at the highest level also, in the Prem and CL
amazing talent, what an absolute waste
He brought many good memories and moments, like everyone in that Spurs team did during two great years.
But when judging him as a footballer when we compare all facets, he was quite easily one of, if not the weakest of that team. He was just absolutely excellent at running beyond opposing teams defences, being in the right place at the right time and playing without fear like most youngsters do before they are coached within an inch of their life.
Bellingham is a much more all rounded and more complete footballer than Dele has ever shown in a Spurs shirt.
Don't get me wrong, Dele was one of my favourites during his peak. But I wouldnt let his goals and assists cloud judgement on his actual ability. The same way I wouldn't say Vardy was better than Drogba despite having better stats.
Bellingham is being touted as future ballon d'Or regular while Kane is almost 30 and surely going to start declining...
Talk of Kane's decline has been circulating since roughly his time in nursery school
Kane, will, start to drop deeper as his career goes on, similar to how Rooney did whilst at utd.
Even if, Kane doesn't stay at spurs, that's how I see his playing days panning out.
croatia keeper and gvardiol
Hope we are in for Cho
We have a scouting network???
Don't tell airfixx FFS, he will become an even angrier young man, and probably blame me
Not sure. Kane has played so much football and has had so many bad injuries that i think it takes its toll. He's still quality but i dont think he's as good as he was 2014 to 2019. Guesswork but i reckon perhaps 2 more seasons at the absolute top level.
22 goals and 13 assists isn't 'being in the right place at the right time'. It's being an excellent footballer.
Sure, Dele lost his love of the game, but lets not forget how good he was.
Before you call Bellingham world class; go look at Jadon Sancho's stats in the Bundesliga vs the Premiership.
i doubt you'll ever seen anything better or as good as that great barcelona side around 08-12. that was football at its highest level. or even msn with iniesta behind them is better than that 4.
Agree. He’s just a completely different player to Bellingham. I always believed he could have been turned into a central midfielder though. But he just never retained the drive to become one. Had he done so he’d have been a tremendous asset for any team in the world. Just goes to show that talent isn’t enough. I’m sure he must have some demons to have stopped him becoming truly great and that’s what stopped him. It may come out, it may not but it’s a shame what has happened to him. He literally had the world at his feet.
When you consider the goals he scored, it's almost certainly right place at the right time. I can't remember a single game during Deles young peak where he ran a game or bossed a game. And that's quite sad.
He was a good second striker when playing in a team that consisted of peak Kane and Eriksen with peak Dembele and Wanyama providing solidarity behind it.
But look past stats for once and you'll realise there really is no comparison. Hence why anyone who looks at stats should understand that Vardy wasn't half as good as Didier Drogba.
Not sure what Sancho has to do with anything. Or are we just comparing random players who've played in both leagues?
How's Haaland doing?

He will sign a pre contract that will see Levy get absolutely fuck all in 12 months so I’m sure he’s not fussed
He was always an awful centre midfielder other than the odd flash. Literally no left foot and didn’t have that 360 awareness you need in that position. Potentially as a forward running 8 in a 3 man midfield but even then I was never comfortable with him in the middle third. He was an instinctive hard running attacking player IMO
