Harry Kane

Mate....look at his record against the top 6...go on..Ive posted it before...it pails in comparrison next to Kuns...Messi's is better and he doesnt even play in the same bloody league!

No i wasnt talking about world class stunners - Kane has a decent strike on him from distance...somethign very few of our players actually have at all.

I also said none of the ones I mentioned were better than Kane but are you telling me a decent striker like Clavert Lewin wouldnt improve his goal scoring in our team? Am i suggesting we should have Clvert Lewin over Kane - no im not but Im sick of people saying Kane will score loads in our team...of course he will but so would others.

Playing the likes of chelsea Liverpool or in the CL vs Bayern etc is vastly differnt than banging in 3 or 4 against he likes of huddersfield. ...nothign to do with nets or the ball changing (though they actually use a different ball for the CL as opposed to the premiership so maybe thats Kane excuse ;-). )

Why should I go and look at his record against the top 6 while playing for Spurs ? Baring in mind that he’ll be playing with vastly superior players at City you’d expect that he’ll have better chances in tighter games than he did at Spurs. Also direct comparisons with Aguero are a complete waste of time as there’s not a single striker out there who has what Kun had at his peak. Total non starter and you can’t clone footballers.

As a general point you argued vehemently that Walker was average and injury prone and Spurs were ripping us off and we needed to go and buy a different kind of full back. You have been similarly unconvinced about many of our best players. Didn’t you want Pogba over Gundo too?

Truth be told I’m delighted you think Kane isn’t worth it because makes me even more confident he’s going to be a worldy for us! But please carry on arguing your case. ;)

Also it's very likely that if we signed Kane and he stayed fit it's likely he'd hit a total of goals next season that surpasses anything Aguero ever did in a season for us. It would be for more complex reasons than just A better than B but still when so many have argued that goals are the only thing that matters for a striker you'd think they'd be delighted.

Aguero's best ever season was 33 goals in all competitions, Harry Kane has hit that total 3 times and beaten it twice.

Aguero's best season as far as goals per game was 28 goals in 34 appearances (0.82 per game). Kane's bettered that twice, with his best being 35 goals in 38 games (0.92 per game).

It doesn't matter whether Kane is better than Aguero or not, or even if he's close. There's enough evidence to suggest that he's more than capable of scoring at the same rate he did, if not better.


And another thing, even if he can't score against top 6 sides (which won't hold up long term at City), we have Foden, Mahrez, Jesus, Torres, Gundogan, Sterling, De Bruyne, and probably someone else I've missed. I'm sure they could help out too if needs be as long as Kane does everything else right.
 
you have actualy helped prove another point here as well so thanks...how many of those goals were against the top 6

I coundted 1 vs chelsea a couple vs Leciester (who he has his best goal socring recrod out of all the top 6 against) - now look at this type of goal by Kun and tell me Kane scores it:



or this one in the 2-1 vs utd



this is the type of goal only the best score.....



This is what Im saying about regarding goals in tight games against the best

The stats dont lie...Kanes record vs the top 6 doesnt even ome close to Agueros....and thats what we need to replace.

Kane is better than aguero now.
Doesn’t matter who you think was best full stop
At the moment Kane clearly wins that’s why we want him, to improve us.
Next season if Kane scores loads against the top 6 what you gonna say then?

Kane could score three against every team we play next year and some will moan he’s not as good as aguero
hearing the same with grealish and David Silva or foden
It’s boring
If Kane and grealish signed for United tomorrow we’d be gutted wouldnt we!!
 
I just want a new striker in the door and if not,

in my best impersonation of Violet Elizabeth Bott (Bonnie Langford) from Just William.

I’ll thcream and thcream and thcream, till I’m thick!

He is like a broken record at this time of year.
 
According to the Telehraph.

Spurs set sights on Dusan Vlahovic (Fiorentina) as club look for new striker to support Harry Kane​

 
Kane is better than aguero now.

Of course kane is better than kun now.....
However its prime Aguero we ate looking to replace
If he scores loads against the top 6 I'll be ecstatic for him and us

No about Pogba. Thought he was a decent player and I think for us he would be better ) look at how he generally plays for France etc)
I was hugely critical of Gundo before last season and I stick by those criticisms at the time...he hugely stepped up last year and we saw a player playing well above what he had ever done for us (and by comparison he had the best goal scoring season of his career).
Walker- I always liked but had concerns about uis defensive nouse....concerns that are justified by his brain farts at times which we have all seen....he is however a player I really like because he has the character that never goes missing even when the shit hits the fan

As fie your last paragraph it's a shame you have to resort to any sort of degradation of someone's opinion...I listen a lot to yours and I may disagree with yours but I'm respectful.....i thought you maybe the same...maybe it was a poor attempt at humour...maybe not.
 
Thanks for taking the time to post such a comprehensive reply and I loved watching those Aguero goals again.

But I'm not sure Kanes previous record against the top 6 is that critical. We won the league at a canter last season with no Aguero in the side and we've got 4/5 other players who can score against the "big 6".

We are going for Kane because in another 94 goals he will be the Premier Leagues all time leading goal scorer and he's the most attainable top class striker out there. We aren't going to get another Sergio Aguero, the sooner most people deal with that fact- the better.
There isnt another player like kun at present that's obvious. I think his record against the top 6 shows however that he has gone missing at times. Spurs fans are quite vocal about this too apparently.. we need players as individuals on the odd occasion to step up at times in tight games.....just like the examples I posted....that's what makes the difference. Chelsea, liverpool, utd will all be better this season

Because when spurs play the better team they don’t have enough possession at city he will he will get the chances he doesn’t get at spurs against the top teams!

If we sign him, which I feel 80% sure we will then I am a 100% sure his record against the other big teams will be much improved.

Let's face it, Spurs are shit.

Do you not think the club would have thought about this when they were weighing up a move for him? Do you not think Pep would have demanded him as much as he apparently has if he thought he'd be no good in the big games?
 
Foolish comparing Kane and Grealish to Aguero and Silva. Almost like you want to set them up to fail or something? Such a strange mentality. Is Dias comparable to Kompany? No. But Kompany is an all-time great. That still leaves room for Dias to be absolutely outstanding for us which he has been. Same applies to Kane and Grealish.

We're getting the best striker in the league and one of the best creative players to go with it. What's not to like? You can never have enough good players.
