He should be rested or dropped as some of you were wanting during the live match thread. I've been saying for a while drop him, shuffle the pack and play Lamela from the start. We have scored well in his absence and we will again.
Reason 2. We often lose after a 2 week break.
Reason 3. Our luck's run out and our true form is showing. We were lucky against Newcastle, we allowed Fulham back in, Utd should have been out of sight by half time and they were the poorest Utd side in goodness knows how long. Watford we all know and today we lost to a side with a tight defence with our main striker off colour.
This is a situation where we need to win one and off we will go again but the surest remedy for recent ills is to DROP KANE. Pamela, Son, Moura and Eriksen can more than make up for his absence.
Reason 1, Kane's playing.

Hardly missed loads of sitters. And I’ve literally just explained to you why he’s the last of your problems. If you cannot understand that then I give up, you clearly don’t understand football very well.

We have created minimal chances at all this season.

If Kane is not scoring or affecting games what is the point of playing him.
We have won many games with Kane . Not the end for the world .

You give up too easily. I've been following football since the double so I think I know football quite well. Morale is boosted when goals are scored so bearing that in mind if Kane did his job better then so would the rest of the team. I expected us to lose today so I'm not surprised, disappointed yes but not surprised. How anyone could have thought we'd win it baffles me.

At the moment I think we'd win more without him.
When a striker miss early chances then the team is often made to pay later on in the match.

You may think that, evidence suggests otherwise. And scoring goals does not always make the rest of the team perform their job better. What is more likely is that Kane would perform his job better if the team could get him more involved, support him and supply him regularly with goal scoring chances.
But the set up and the personnel in vital areas in the centre of the park and outwide are causing Spurs huge issues at both ends of the pitch.
If you think simply dropping Kane will make a huge difference, especially replacing him with less facking clinical players, then I don’t know what else to say.

We scored well without him for a period when he was injured, we can do the same again.

Not without major improvements from the rest of the team.

The whole side played like sheit today. Passing was shambles, just gave the ball back to Pool at the time.
The problem starts with the midfield where Dembele is past his best and Dier is just not good enough.
Levy is the one to blame here .... should have bought a top midfielder and a top CF to alternate with Kane.
Now we're looking at trying to make top 4 as the best we can do this year!

Dier is about Jamie O Hara standard.
