So easy to mark him for a quality defender.

Who would pay £150m for him.
Won't be long before he is burnt out like Charlie Austin, how old is he 27 he couldn't race my twin brother to the shops and he his 67.

Vardy any day. Much more hunger.

To be fair, he has scored vs all teams in the PL on a fairly regular basis for years. And, the past season he had loads of assist too, apart from all the goals.
But, agreed about yesterday - he was really poor, but that goes for the whole team imo.

Reminded me Lloyd of Charlie Austin. Decent when there's an opening but contributes very little and no pace or energy!

Doesn’t look fit to me ..... too slow and pedestrian. Maybe will come good in the knockout stage .... assuming we make it.

Good player but he's definitely been off the pace thus far. Carrying a knock? Physically fatigued from a lot of football in recent years? Mentally fatigued by the potential of a move away from Spurs or all of the above? Or maybe he's just fed up and would secretly prefer a decent break to give his mind and body a rest?

Top PL goalscorer this season and had the most assists, World Cup top scorer last time out, 35 goals in all comps in 2020/21, 160 odd Premier League goals, 34 in 50 odd games for England. I think his individual stats speak for themselves. He's also scored plenty against the likes of Chelsea, Arsenal, City, Utd, Liverpool etc.

I’m talking about international football not domestic football.
His record is poor when it comes to scoring against the top nations and in matches when it really matters.
At the last World Cup he scored 2 against Tunisia, 3 against Panama and 1 against Columbia.
Of these 3 were penalties and 1 was courtesy of an inadvertent deflection from someone else’s long range shot that hit him.
The other 2 goals were a tap in off a rebound and a header from a yard.
Surely the weakest of all of the Golden Boot winners in history, I’d be embarrassed to pick up the trophy given the compilation.
Oh......and no goals when it mattered against quality sides and in important matches.
You can put your shirt on him when we play Gibraltar though.

Yeah that's fair enough, there's an argument though that scoring goals against the top PL sides is harder than being a flat track bully at international level. I don't think it's all Kane's fault when he plays for England, he's playing under a coach inclined to be negative, and previous to that he played under Hodgson taking corners for some reason. Despite that he's still got a better than 1 in 2 ratio.
He was rubbish last night though.
