Pogba is overrated and nothing special at all. So it's no surprise at all that Kane is more valuable then Pogba,

Wrong again, one fantastic season, and it's 29 PL goals in two seasons or 70 appearances, 2014 -15 (5 in 34 appearances) and 2015-16 (24 in 36 appearances).

At the end of the day the valuation are based on estimations and speculations, where they consider number of factors, age, talent, marketability (shirt sales, image rights etc..). Please tell me in which area does Kane would supersede Pobga ? This is why I am inclined to believe Pobga is worth more than Kane, even though (on average), strikers are worth more than midfielders, defenders and goalkeepers.

Again, please read....


"Drogba is a class, and Vardy has had one excellent top flight season at 29."

Note. ...one excellent top flight season


"..to go with the guff the likes of the comments above spouted - not even acknowledging 2 fantastic seasons, and 49 league goals in 83 league game"

This is about Kane. 49 goals in 83 PL games, only 72 of which are starts.

Only 4 players have hit 20 or more PL goals more than twice

Note. ...one excellent top flight season for Vardy

This is about Kane, not Vardy.

49 goals in 83 PL games, only 72 of which were starts.

Only 4 players have hit 20 or more PL goals more than twice, and Kane has done it already.

In his first two as a regular.

At 22.

THAT is why he is rated so highly

In fact Aguero has made it five now, my mistake - the article was in April before he hit 20.

Shearer.......x7
Henry..........x5
Ruud vN......x4
Ferdinand...x3
Aguero........x3

RVN almost 23
Aguero almost 23
Les almost 27

Robbie Fowler did it twice by 21, bur never again

A lot of this is about age. the value is over an entire career not over a short while. martial and kane as young... yes so is pogba but as a CM not a striker.

simples.
