How Good Is Harry Kane?

[Clemdog 39,389]

Ever since his first decent goalscoring Season, I've thought he won't keep this up. In my mind, he was a one season wonder. Surely a matter of time before this purple patch ends and the goals dry up...

That's clearly not going to happen. The boy is the real deal, but how good could he be? It's easy to forget he's only 24.

I still think his ability will be defined by either him winning a decent trophy with Spurs (European or EPL) or by how he performs when he moves on from Spurs. Realistically who could he move to if he keeps up this scoring record? All the big sides have plenty of ST's in the EPL, but he struggles to speak English at the best of times, so not sure I could see him moving aboard. 

What are your thoughts?

[A.T.G 10,773]

He doesn't look like a good modern striker but he certainly provides the goals.

i can't imagine him anywhere but Spurs tbh

[TheKingObv 10,634]

One of the best strikers in the world.

[Creampuff 22,628]

Probably one of the best strikers in the world. For some reason I'm convinced he's joining Real Madrid.

Spurs do have a good selling relationship with them to be fair. 

I'd say it's a reasonable assumption, but I can hardly see him speaking Spanish.

[Iron Proddy 609]

Be a better fit for bayern

And German is far easier to learn than spanish

[pcbear 10,913]

I think he will be at Spurs long term, super goalscorer and seems a good guy as well.

[Bossorange 696]

If he had pace and was more physical, all the top teams would be after him right now. 

 

[JamieD 18,876]

He's a much better player than he gets credit for, and is obviously a top class goalscorer. Can't help thinking he doesn't carry the sort of aura that he should simply because of how he sounds.

[Moody Blue Legend 61,341]

Proving me wrong big time.  

[RangersMedia 35,961]

He is a throwback player.

A good old fashioned striker, and an exceptional one at that.

Average player who is over rated.

Never world class.

I'm definitely not.

World class to me is Messi, Ronaldo etc and Kane is never in their league.

I will give him some credit in that he has scored a few good goals recently

To you, "world class" doesn't refer to the handful of top players in the world in their position but only refers to potential all-time greatest players?

Pretty strict criteria. If world class to you means Messi, Ronaldo then there are only two world class players in the world in any position and have only been two since 2006.

Highest goals per game ratio (all comps in 2017), in Europe. But is 'average'

Arguably the best penalty box striker in the world right now

He is intercontinental class.

My standards are obviously higher than yours !! Other players for example I considered world class are Iniesta Xavi Pirlo Lahm.

But they aren't in the Messi and Ronaldo league either, so obviously you agree that there are levels of world class.

Kane has scored 100 goals in his last 146 games. That's a higher rate than Luis Suarez scored at Liverpool. It's much, much better than David Villa at Barcelona. It's comparable to Neymar at Barcelona. Is he is as talented as those players? No, but he's clearly not "average".

Kane is the real deal....even when he has is drought in August it's not without the want of trying, I would put him in the same bracket as lewandowski but probably getting better than him.

[harlands plater 16,952]

Would never have rated him in the Van Nistelrooy or Lewandowski class but the more he keeps scoring the more he looks like proving me wrong.
