Nalis Posted 16 March 2022 Share Posted 16 March 2022 5 hours ago, UPinCarolina said: One of the least impressive collections of forwards we've ever seen in the PL. Between injuries, sub-par play, and tactical nous - there just aren't that many pure strikers left who are worth a damn. Vardy is one of the last of a dying breed, IMO. Plenty of decent forwards but lack of decent strikers. The former including Salah, Mane, the 6 or so Man City players who rotate. With strikers I guess a lot of that is down to the evolution of what is expected from players, perfect example being Harry Kane who assists a a lot more for Spurs in the past few seasons he ever did. The classic second striker role is probably diminishing faster than the classic number 9 given the most popular 3/1 up front. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As much as people give him stick. Kane is top class, not had his best season though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not had his best season but will still end up scoring 15 goals in the league. Kane is class and that's backed up with his goalscoring record. We're seeing a player who will probably, injury free, end up touching Shearer's 260 PL goals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s the key thing he has to be injury free, he needs another 6 seasons at a average of 14 goals just to get near to Shearer’s record 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve_Guppy_Left_Foot Posted 16 March 2022 Share Posted 16 March 2022 If kane went man City he'd bag about 30 goals a year IF he plays like he has for the last few months. I've seen him be absolutely awful for England and in the past when I've watched him play for spurs, but credit where its due every time I've watched him play this season he's been the player the pundits always reckoned he was.

Smashing-Pumpkin Posted 16 March 2022 Share Posted 16 March 2022 Harry Kane is not just one of the best goalscorers in the league, hes also one of the most creative players in the league too. Im not sure there are many players whos all round contribution to their team is as high as Kane's. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He scores and creates with both feet and is good in the air. Also most importantly he is big and strong. He is not as good as Lewandowski but is comparable with Benzema.

He and Son can't do it all on their own , Erikson leaving was a big loss as well. Kane will not leave Spurs now ,at least not until he is in his thirties. He will probably never win anything in his career but he is a very high class player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
