Another record at the weekend for "One of our Own"
4th season on a trot that he has scored 20 EPL goals (Its only mid-January ). Previously, 21, 25 and last seasons 29.
Only Shearer & Henry have managed this in the premier league era (26 years).
Shearer managed 4 in a row between 92/93 and 96/97, although the first three he achieved over 30 - 31, 34, 31 goals (albeit in a 42 game season).
Henry managed the feat for 5 seasons on the trot from 01/02 - 06/07 - 24, 24, 30, 25, 27.
Next in 24 year old Kane's sights is 100 EPL goals. Currently on 98 in 135 games, he cannot beat Shearers record of 100 in 124 appearance but he could be second in that list, beating Aguero 100 in 147 games. Others include Henry (160 games) Wright (173) Fowler (175) and SirLes (178).
If Kane does it soon, he will be younger than Shearer who hit 100 goals aged 25. Shearer went on to play for another 10 years (36) and was 33 when he last scored +20 goals (2003/4, NUFC).
Shearer's overall record stands at 260 goals in 441 EPL games (0.6 goals per game). If you ever have a chance, google shearers career goals. Some simply amazing finishes. Kane will do amazingly well to get near these records.
COYS!
Goal Machine Kane

So Spurs fans sing that song as a bit of tongue in cheek since Kane was an Arsenal fan as a kid?

More competition this Season with us beating the the best side in the league yesterday and getting better with VVD to settle in
___________________________________
It was a great result yesterday and Liverpool have got to be one of the best teams going forward in any of Europe's top leagues, but lets be honest City were rubbish and even then managed 3 goals.
Two of your goals were absolute howlers by City and that changed the whole face of the game.
There is no doubt though that Anfield is a formidable place to go to, and I am expecting a very tough game for us when we travel up there soon.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I thought we made City play badly. Howlers? Even Salah's goal was well taken and the rest were world class finishes.
Spurs look well set with Kane fit and the injuries clearing up. His numbers are superb, as is his attitude, and he comes across as incredibly hungry so the records are great but he just loves goals I reckon. I didn't think he played well against Everton..... scored twice
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Bit of both i think. vs Spurs the City goal keeper was pinging 80 yard passes under pressure to their forwards. vs LFC he shanked it straight to Salah....but its a learning thing with City. Spurs pressed aggressively and were caught out by the keepers passing but now everyone knows he's capable of that when pressing high - LFCs defence were also very aggressive in attacking the longer ball from the keeper. I think you learnt a bit from the Spurs game and we all learnt a bit from the way LFC got in their face yesterday. They were rattled and made more passing errors than i have seen from them all season, even when under no pressure at times.

Liverpool press differently to Spurs, it is more aggressive, frequent and the aim is to recover the ball (Hipsters call it geigenpress). Whereas we tend to press to cut off all the passing options and force them to kick it long and recover the ball that way. Possibly their style is better suited for a City team who isn't still 100% at tiki-taka.

Pep`s ego handed the result to Pool on a plate, everybody knows what Pool`s strengths and weaknesses are and £ity played straight into their hands by refusing to change the way they play.
£ity should have been playing more defensive formation at Klanfield, cutting off the lines and negating the press with longer balls into midfield, and then taking their chances against Pool`s dodgy back line. Pool`s goals came from £ity errors caused by the press and a goalkeeping error, it wasn`t brilliant incisive football that cut £ity open.
I hope Poch was watching and plans to set us up correctly when we visit Klanfield, £ity made Pool look like world beaters, which they are far from.

I actually think Kane is showing the potential to be a better all round player than Shearer.
He has already shown he is capable in the no 10 role and in fact this is where he may evolve to in the later stags of his career. It may be when he goes age 30 + he might become more effective in that role.
