Any update on his recovery?
so Kane is not up for a Ballon d'Or nomination.
Jamie Vardy is however.
Really? All very strange
The latest list on the BBC currently ends with: Dimitri Payet (West Ham), Pepe (Real Madrid), Paul Pogba (Manchester United).
None of who would get into our team imo....
Pogba and Payet wouldn't get into our team?
100% This. Payet right now is a liability, his lack of defensive contribution, which is zero, has resulted directly in two of their losses this season. If he continues in this form he will relegate them on his own. He would not get in our team because of this.On current form no.
Alli gets more goals and assists than Pogba from attacking mid.
Son gets more goals and assists than Payet from left wing.
And both contribute more defensively.

Pogba isn't even delivering on being a 40m player, let alone the world record signing. Maybe some of that is due to just adjusting to the league, but Alli is a very similar sort of player, just seemingly better in all respects expect for media hype.Pogba and Payet wouldn't get into our team?
Cuts both ways, defensively he offers nothing, his errors have resulted in at least 2 goals in two different games. One thing is for sure he would never make our team because of it, wouldn't even get on the bench. For him to flourish in a team the rest have to accommodate him and give him a free roll with no defensive responsibilities. He is good for fantasy football scores not much else. Personally I'd pick Chadli ahead of him (scores more too).Payet has single handedly made sure West Ham aren't in the relegation zone with the 4 points he's won them though.

Could probably make an argument for Vardy getting a nomination...Ballon d'or shortlist:
Sergio Aguero (Manchester City), Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (Borussia Dortmund), Gareth Bale (Real Madrid), Gianluigi Buffon (Juventus), Cristiano Ronaldo (Real Madrid), Kevin de Bruyne (Manchester City), Paulo Dybala (Juventus), Diego Godin (Atletico Madrid), Antoine Griezmann (Atletico Madrid), Gonzalo Higuain (Juventus).
Harsh Kane hasn't made it?
That's fair. He was absolutely key in the most astonishing league win for quite some time (think how many one-goal margins they won by) and got that consecutive goal record as the cherry on top.so Kane is not up for a Ballon d'Or nomination.
Jamie Vardy is however.
I disagree Jamie.Hate to say it but id have payet over lamela and eriksen in a heartbeat
I'd have Payet over lamela too.
Thanks joeI disagree Jamie.
And with you scotty.
