Penalty King

I know it was only preseaon, but as a follow up to my post yesterday about how good Kane looks this summer.......I saw the shootout yesterday and while all the pens (ex Eriksen) were excellent..... Kane's was just buried ! Considering how many he takes (and all the research keepers get to do on his preferences) he might be one of the best I have ever seen. Not only is he incredibly accurate but he hammers them. His pens to the top and bottom left corners are truly superb..... He looks like he has has an unshakable belief that he he'll score.....

Cant think of better pen taker in 35 years of watching Spurs... Sheringham was bl00dy good as was Lineker

Does it for England too

Keep it up Harry

Shame we don't play in a red shirt, as he'd get another 8 - 10 goals a season

Can't be that good if Karius manages to save one

It has always surprised me that more players don't aim for the top corner as its the one place that no keeper can get to. Fair play to Kane though he batters them in.

I would like to know what Eriksen was attempting to do with his? Whatever it was I doubt he'll be asked to take another, Neuer looked embarrassed for him.

Gambling on the keeper diving one way or the other

If it works nobody complains, If it doesn't you look like a right diickhead

Higher difficulty and easier to put it high or wide.

Was gna say that. As Pawl says the keeper can't get there but small margins for error, if not bang on point it can easily go high or wide.

Kane might be the best in the league but he's not as good as Le Tissier was and his record speaks for itself with just the 1 miss in about 50 or something. Kane has more misses than that.

Sure it is a harder skill but I guess thats where the practice comes in. Keepers are so agile these days that a low well struck effort thats just inside the post can be saved.
