[Don Corleone]

Best player in the world for me. It would be an absolute travesty if he wins nothing in his career. I wish Spurs would do everything we can to win trophies with him.

 

[Pathfinder]

 

[arngspurs]

No other striker in the world can do what he does. Unbelievable

 

[Beech]

Closest in style is Benzema, who is a wonderful player. But even he can't pass a ball like Harry.

 

[WellingtonSpur]

Absolutely brilliant again today

 

[Beech]

When you think about it, he's got to be right up there when he's at his best. It's certainly not Messi or Ronaldo anymore. You've got Salah, De Bruyne, Kane, Mbappe... Neymar talent wise, although he's an absolute melt. Not gonna say Lewandowski until he joins a proper league. Haaland, Foden, Pedri and Bellingham will soon be right up there off the top of my head.

 

[Sonofa]

When he’s “at it” in this playmaker role he is as good as anybody.

Protects the ball so well and the vision and technique is out of this world. I think the last few weeks is as good as he’s ever been.

 

[Ulrika Jonsson]

His pass to Son for the 4th goal against Leeds was positively Hoddle-esk. I loved it.

 

[Samisspurs]

There were a couple of seasons where he would seem to bulldoze his way past players, making goals all by himself.

His passing and positioning have improved - now he's less dynamic but more of an all rounder. I miss those old days, but he's still good if not better.

 

[Adrian Cimino]

That pass for the 4th was Glenn Hoddle at his absolute peak. As Hoddle was my hero growing up there is no higher praise.

Totally agree mate

 

[Berserker]

We need to offer the guy 500k a week. It was a pleasure watching him play yesterday.

 

[Kiwi]

We need to offer the guy 500k a week. It was a pleasure watching him play yesterday.

don't get me wrong , he's great... but, being devils advocate, if you paid three of the right players 200, 200 and 100 could that be even better? (yes, yes... assumes top quality scouting)

 

[blackburn]

We need to offer the guy 500k a week. It was a pleasure watching him play yesterday.

I’m not sure the Woolwich approach to contracts is a sensible. And I’m Kane’s biggest fan

 

[ArcspacE]

There's no volume goalscorer in the world who can play a ball like that. He's a unicorn.

He is the GOAT

 

[Matt1882]

We need to offer the guy 500k a week. It was a pleasure watching him play yesterday.

Doubt money motivates him tbh.
If some one else can offer him the league title and CL football he would probably take a pay cut

We need to offer him evidence we are ambitious as well as a new contract

 

[Nuts]

All we have to do is keep reminding him of our furious fighting spirit.

 

[KaneDomBadBoy]

Probably the least of our problems today but still very MIA

 

[Novaspur]

Probably the least of our problems today but still very MIA

It just further highlights how poor the rest of the team is. When Harry has an off day theres noone with the ability to step up and take the game by the scruff.
