70 goals in his last 90 Premier League games. Incredible player with an incredible record. Think about that a moment, if his name was Harry Kaninho there would be people hailing as world class and one of the best strikers in the world. There is no doubt about it that we have one of , if not the best striker in the premier league and still to this day, you get certain jealous, bitter rival supporters who still can't recognise his quality and appreciate what a top striker he really is. They still say he's not that great and he has to prove himself. Golden boot for the 2nd season running pretty much certain.
He now has as many PL hat-tricks as Ronaldo + Bergkamp + Zola + Diego Costa + Cantona combined and at the age of 23. Look at that list of players for a second and still people doubt him it's almost comical. Harry, you keep breaking records left, right and centre whilst us Spurs fans enjoy having the best striker in the premier league gracing our shirt. Here's to the 3 season Wonder Harry Kane make it 4 next season Harry!!!
Harry Kane

Owen scored a big goal in a World Cup, 2 in fact, at 18.
Things like that get noticed.
I don't see what's hard to grasp here.
You love quoting stats but are ignoring that football isn't just about stats.
It's about impact at the highest level.
Kane is Spurs in microcosm really. Yeah great stats but what did you achieve. What did you do at the highest level when it mattered most.
If Kane and Spurs want that acclaim they need to do something when it matters.
Both have time on their side and might do it, we will see.
Remember how hardly anyone in England rated Ibra until he scored a hatrick against us, then people started noticing him and looking beyond just his stats.
Kane's PL goals or early round goals won't mean anything to a lot of foreigners. He needs to do something that makes his name at the highest level, a Euros, a World Cup, a high profile CL game.
When he does that, Spurs fans can stop moaning about him being under appreciated.

Sorry for quoting goal stats about a striker, it is definitely not the main criteria when discussing the best strikers.
What exactly did Suarez do in Europe for Liverpool by the way? Or Ajax? Pretty average return of 1-in-2 up until then.
I suppose you would have said he was one of the best strikers in the World when he left for Barca though

His 69 PL goals in 110 games - or his 65 in 97 in his last three PL seasons - are both bettered by Kane.

Suarez had been doing well internationally. Had a very good 2010 WC and then did well in what little time he had at the next WC, aside from the bite. And didn't he help Uruguay win a Copa America for Chile in between?
Kane could do with doing more in Europe and internationally if he wants to be the very best, but a lot of that criticism seems like pointless nitpicking to me. He was doing well internationally before the Euros and his European record isn't bad even if Spurs haven't progressed far enough. He will come good with time.
Even without that and just basing on his PL career alone, most big clubs would be interested if he was made available.

This comment is laughable.
Suarez scored 3 goals at World Cup 2010. At the Copa in 2011 he scored 4 goals and was voted player of the tournament as Uruguay won it, including 2 goals in the semi and 1 in the final.
He became Uruguays all time top scorer in 2013, a country who have won the World Cup twice and numerous Copa's.
You are getting desperate now, even a fellow Spurs fan is correcting you.

Kane has played in a Euro U21 finals and a Euros finals as number 9.
Zero goals.

Peter Crouch has 22 goals in 2200 minutes of England games. A goal every 100 minutes.
Meanwhile, Harry Kane has this season become....
Only the 4th player to have scored 20+ in three consecutive PL seasons.
Only the 5th player to have scored 25+ in two consecutive PL seasons
Only the 4th player to have scored 20+ league goals in a major European league in the last three seasons - Messi, Ronaldo and Lacazette the others.
Kane's 18 goal haul in 2017 is only bettered by Lionel Messi, and matched by Lewandowski
