How in the name of god does a striker have only 14 shots? Kane has taken 46 shots and missed 3 big chances.

It's almost like Jesus has played half as many games as Kane because he was out injured for 2 months, isn't it?
 
Our finishing as a team is appalling and has been for a long time, yes even when we won four trophies in a season.

We scored goals for fun but it could and probably should have been a hell of a lot more.

A great goal poacher, ie someone like Robert Lewandowski would have scored 50 goal in a season when we were at our glorious best.
 
Hardly fair to compare Jesus and Kane when both teams they play for are in a completely different style. Kane plays in a counter-attacking team and would expectantly have more space during the attack, thus higher shots, higher xG.

If teams park the bus the same way against Mourinho the same way against us, Kane's xG would drop too.

Not saying Jesus is supposed to be some world class finisher, but comparisons against Kane is hardly fair.
 
I also feel being Captain is affecting him negatively, you can tell he is under immense pressure to deliver thus the poor form, that is also showing on the team.

Play Dinho to relieve him from the captain role and play another attacking midfielder on the left. We need to go back to playing with one holding midfielder and aim for the 3-1 win instead of the current clean sheet 1-0 win.
