Kane is a world class player. End of story.

 

He's a top top striker as opposed to someone like Lukaku who is a very good premier league striker. Lewendowski had a shit world cup but he's far superior to lukaku.

I reckon Lukaku is better than Kane.

Not sure there is much in it between the two. Top class players, but neither will ever be the main man at a club that wins the league or champions league. Lukaku because he goes missing in every single big game, and Kane because his selfishness is fine for a side like Spurs, but not for a team that needs to win stuff. Essentially, his ability doesn't quite match his selfishness (you can just about get away with it if you're Ronaldo, for example).

 

I honestly wouldn't swap Firmino for Kane.

Kane is a world class scorer. But as much as the English mrdia and spurs fan want to push it he isnt in the same class of Salah,Messi,Suarez or even Bale.

 

They do so much more than score.

This.

International football is not a good example of showing whether a player is world class or not because there are top class players in almost every country in the world now and the best players will more likely come together at club level as they don't have to all share a country of birth.

Harry Kane is not world class,half of his goals were penalties and he was at his worst when needed the most. He is a top class goalscorer,on his own terms but unless he improves his all round game he doesn't deserve a world class tag. To be fair,England hasn't got a world class player in it's ranks at the moment just a combination of good,very good and average. When your league is made up of so many non nationals that is no big surprise.

I'm still amazed fuck all has been said about the lack of an offside call on Pogba. If people thought the handball rule is struggling, then the offside rule is utterly fucked.

It wasn't off. Vida's foot played him on. They checked it on VAR.
