It was an article yesterday in the daily express of what their football expert expect to happen without any basis of whatsoever, all assumptions of who to replace ronaldo. BS basically.

Have fun in your echo chamber!
I am sorry but Kane is overrated: 3 goals against the mighty Panama (probably the worst team ever to be at a world cup), 2 goals against mighty Tunisia and one goal against Columbia. Four of those were on penalties and one was a shot which rikocheted off Kane's ass and was credited to him. In the league he has scored only four(!) goals against the other top 6 teams, three of which came against Liverpool. That is not the hallmark of a top class striker. Top class strikers turn up on the big occasions. Kane almost never does. Take Eriksen away and Kane will become invisible. Kane is GOOD but NOT top class.
(Putting on my asbestos long johns and flak vest)
Kane isn't top class?
Yeah, fuck off, Gooner cunt. Get off this forum, right fucking now.
If your Onslow vocabulary and intellectual faculties allow you to articulate anything but expletives, please explain why Kane's stats are so impressive?
When ever i see Kane hate on here i always have a look to see how long the poster has been on TFC & how many posts they have made. At least 99% of the time they have only been here 5 mins which always makes me suspicious.
It seems he doesnt.
Doesn’t 108 goals in 150 league appearances speak for itself?
If I have to explain what makes Kane’s stats so impressive to you, you are a)not on the right forum, and b) not following the right sport. Football is clearly too much for you. Not even sure why I’m responding to your blatant, gooner maggot trolling to be honest. I think I’ll go have a threesome with your mum and your fat sister, and ignore the rest of your posts. Ciao, bella! xx
What are you talking about. This world cup his goalscoring wasnt that impressive obviously. Some will lie to themselves for the feel good factor - 3 pens, one of his butt and only 2 proper goals. But the guy is the topscorer or close to almost every season. What stats are you not impressed with? I hate using using expletives (i think it means cusses yea?) but you sound fucking crazy if you arent impressed with his stats outside of the worldcup.
I've just lost my Mojo.....
I did say that I think he is good, I just happen to think that someone better than Kane is needed to take the next step. A rather innocuous point of view, I should say.
Kane stats to 28th June.

Short of signing Messi or Ronaldo, there isn’t anyone better. The stats, which you’re apparently choosing to ignore, back that up.
Equalled the first one (6)
Beat the second one (7)
Equalled the third one (12 - so far)
Can't wait for you to tell us who is better than Kane. This long, long list of players must take some reading, so I'm off to the shops to stock up on provisions as it will take some time to read. Please also back up why they are better, think this is important. Once you've done this please let us also know the chances of actual buying each player, how much in purchase fee and of course their wages.
Looking forward to reading everything you got to say on the matter.
Thanks.
The guy is smashing club, league and national records left, right and centre, he's England captain at 24, top scorer 2 of the last 3 seasons despite injuries. Scored goals in big league, World Cup and Champions League matches. Golden Boot for gods sake. Penalties count! Ask Modric how easy they are. What more could the lad have done?
You're talking out of your arse.
OK, your opinion is your own, fair enough.
Could you suggest *who* we should sign to be better? Ideally, a realistic signing. I think I'd accept there are 4 - 5 candidates in absolute terms (Messi, Suarez, Cavani maybe, CR7, possibly Neymar), but not convinced we could sign any of them.
