Has to be Kane. Can do everything but run quick. Son is brilliant but he doesn’t always link well in games, Kane does but both are amazing.

In terms of raw technical ability I’d imagine Ndombele, Lo Celso and Eriksen. One is unfit, the other not sure and Eriksen is probably buggering off. Suppose I should add Vertonghen who is a beauty on the ball. But technical is only part of it.
 
For me its son., just Hardly ever get injured always contributing. If kane cant olay he takes over. Kane is a monster leader but son just keeps doing the business. I honestly think he'd be harder to replace.
 
If we're being honest, Eriksen is the most talented player in a 2014-2019 Tottenham team.

And Dele getting 4 votes is an absolute joke, abilitywise he's squad player at best.

Did you mean ‘if we’re being clueless’?

I’ve read a lot of your posts and I really don’t think you understand the game.
 
Kane's been the most consistent performer on the team and his stats are nothing short of exceptional.

But the thing is, if you put Son in Kane's role, Son would also get 30+ goals a year. Since 2016, the guy has averaged around 20 goals and 8-10 assists a year in a relatively limited role. Had he been a full time/every game starter like Kane (he came off the bench around 30% of the time), took penalties instead of Kane (accounts for at least 5 goals a season), and been the main target up front as our #9, he would have gotten 30+ goals.

We saw what kind of results Son produced when he filled in for Kane as our main man up front last year - it was Son that led us to the final in Kane's absence. Now that Eriksen is all but gone, you're really starting to see Son step up as both a scorer and playmaker to fill in some of the void that Ericksen left behind. His ability to succeed in multiple roles/positions is nothing short of amazing.

Kane, while one of the top strikers in the world, does not have the raw talent/natural ability that Son has - he's reached his physical ceiling (some might say it has deteriorated a little) and plays one position but does it exceptionally well. What Kane is at the moment is that he is Spurs' undisputed leader and much more refined and thus more consistent and clinical than Son.

Son is not as refined but he's still got a lot of raw untapped talent. You're never going to see Kane, or anyone for that matter other than maybe Messi and a prime Ronaldo scoring the goal he scored a couple days ago. Son can pretty much do everything Kane can except Kane's aerial ability but the opposite isn't true. Scary thing is, Son's getting better and better. He hasn't reached his ceiling yet.

Sonny wouldn't make as good a CF as Kane does.... Especially in the EPL.

You're lying to yourself, fanboy.

Of course, Kane is a better striker. (That's what he has been doing his whole career)

But Son is multiplayer, he can play mid, left or right on the attack (2 footed) which makes him more versatile than Kane.

They are both world-class but if you want to ask me who has more impact on a game? it has to be Son because of his pace (Which a lot of defenders can't keep up)

I guarantee you if Son was English and homegrown the perception of him vs Kane will change.
