gutted for the injury, hopefully will only miss 2 or 3 weeks. Imagine this happening last season

Whilst tempory disabled, Kane qualifies to play in the Disabled Football League so at least he can keep fit. Lucky for Spurs, the GB team have just returned ftom Brazil so no call up there.
In the London & South East Ability Counts League, the Chavs have 2 teams. He could play aoong side JT?

Deaf football league?
Harsh on Drogba, I mean yes he was a diving w@*ker who played for class-less scum and scored 'that' penalty but the others are still complete Thunderc**t$ beyond compare.
Twitter
Apparently I'm too dumb to post Twitter posts...Daily Mail reporting Kane is out 2 months with ankle ligament damage.
EDIT: digging further, it's up to 2 months (6-8 weeks), but a second scan is being done, and depending on this results, it could be "as little as 10 days".
Club confident it is not a grade-3 tear, which would be 4 months.
So anywhere from 10-60 days...

The negatives
- Harry has been tired for a long time now and should have been managed better
- He is a complete striker and next to irreplaceable, in terms of what he offers
The positives
- Poch can finally shelve Kane+ Jassen upfront, which clearly does not work
- We can now test Jassen with other players with whom he can build up link up play and likewise. I have a hunch Dele will work well with him.

I understand looking for positives but this is a huge blow for us no two ways about it. He's our best player, our talisman!
Supporting my team does not mean I also have to blindly imagine that all our players are brilliant. That would be, to use your compliments above, "mug" or "fucking idiot".
Don't get me wrong. If Jansen turns out to be Ok I'll be happily wrong, but I'm not seeing it so far. We don't need this to turn into a whine about what he can't do, and yes it's early days, but please tell me what he is doing well cause I need a hint to see it.
Get well Harry
I agree, but he's been pretty awful so far in this season (not including the Sunderland game that I missed). And Spurs still, point wise, have done pretty ok. We'll be fine and Janssen will get chances now. At the end of the season this could be something good.

Of course it doesn't mean you have to think all our players brilliant, but surely it's obvious that it's much much to early to judge Janssen atm
Janssen has a high work rate and he does hold the ball up well. Those are the absolute minimum things you would expect though, he needs to show a lot more than that.
+ goals.
Im not concerned at all. sometimes you need a - to find the +s.. Janssen will do us proud, this could be our turning point.
We are playing well at the moment but lacking zest.
With Kane out. It could enhance others players performances. We have developed a style of play where Kane spear heads the attack and dominates /shapes the way we play. This will have to change. It could give us a new concept, a change that maybe, as most feel, we need at the moment, it could give us a lift. Janssens enthusiasm to chase the ball down will help. He needs to score goals although Kane hasn't been 100% hitting the net.

The way we play is set up for a front man like Janssen. This isn't like buying Soldado who thrives on balls being played into him from players behind, only to have those players playing back to front. I think there is far more to Janssen's game and being young he is able to develop his all round play. Look at what Pochettino has done with Kane, who was originally a bit of useless lump. Poch makes players let's have some faith we can get Janssen firing after a run of starts.
The antithesis of Bobby Soldier then? I loved Bobby and wanted him to work out. However he just didn't get stuck in.
