not even that one, but he even stumbles when he finishes that, and his second goal he falls over.

Quite a cumbersome geezer.

maybe cumbersome is not the right word, unorthodox maybe would be better

I do see where Nick is coming from, Kane is very unorthadox in his style but I can see he knows what he's doing at times, very lucky on the ball and seems to break through tackles, very much in the Shearer mould

Players like Suarez, Cavani, Lewandowski are different in styles,

I think he's class too BDK that's the funny things, goes to show how defensive spurs fans can get about him.

He's probably not in the top 5 on the ball in spurs starting 11. Eriksen, alli, dembele just off the top of my head are better on the ball.

Nick said nothing wrong or bad about Kane here, Don. To be unorthodox is what sets him apart from the average strikers out there.

He isn't a magician at taking on opponents like a Neymar or Suarez, but he more often then not gets the better of them over 90 minutes through the use of his main strengths, which are his physique, positioning, finishing and will power to win.

You don't have to run past x players to score a goal to be considered world class. See Klinsmann, Shearer or Davor Suker

When are the votes cast for this thing?

My guess is, its before Kane scored all those goals in Sept, so his stats do not look as good compared to some of the other strikers.

See even this. You are using a few clumsy goals to base your opinion that he's a bit clumsy on the ball. What about all the stunning goals he scored ? Which required a touch of class. He scored a few fantastic goals against your own side Chelsea.

Edin Dzeko ffs

What makes you think im using a "few" clumsy goals. what about his free kicks?

Even his goals against chelsea were him rolling cahill and smashing it low, wasn't asif he was doing step overs etc. He reminds me a bit of costa but probably better technically to be fair to him.

Either way everyone has agreed with me don, so meh. Keep getting your knickers in a twist if you want.

Not sure why anybody takes these award ceremonies seriously. I mean Celtic got an award for having the best fans.

FFS, only yesterday they were fined for their fans bad behaviour. The idiots that give out these awards.

Kane at 24, is already outscoring most on the list at the same age. When he gets to 30, which is the age of most of the said players everybody says is better than him, then we can really judge him. Cavani at 23/24 had barely scored a goal for a decent club.

Not getting my kickers in a twist mate. My main gripe all along was I think you are downplaying his ability a bit. I think he's much better on the ball for what you give him credit for. I think some of the goals he he scored have been stunning. You don't score a goal like he did against Arsenal at the lane a few seasons ago if you weren't technically very good. The goal where he created space in the far left corner and smashed it into the top right hand corner.

The question was on the last three seasons and current form, no one should be taking it personally, stats are a great way to judge a players ability

hmm costa scored a similar goal last season and technically he wasn't up to much. Didn't even say he wasn't technical, his finishing is brilliant, you just went OTT and started contradicting yourself.

posted on 24/10/17

Costa hasn't scored anywhere near the variety of goals Kane has though. Costa is a great striker but Kane technically is much better.

seems like you just wanted an argument today tbh. hence why I asked your age earlier.

Don wants Kane's D clearly

No mate. I just get a bit wound up when people throw the "Kanes not great technically " around when I watch him on a weekly basis and I see a fantastic footballer.. ok maybe you didn't mean that but just felt you were downplaying his ability
