    You claimed that the NLD was the first game I'd watched all season, now you're saying that I didn't watch it.
    You're chatting so much guff, that you can't even keep up with your own lies <laugh>

    I think it's rival fans that need to calm down. We drew a game away at Sevilla and have to win at home vs Spartak. Nothing's broken. Yet.

    Hardly.

    But he’s a world class striker and, you know, that’s what strikers are paid to do - score goals.

    I think we can agree that all world class players play for big successful clubs, i.e. Messi, Suarez, Neymar, Ronaldo, Griezmann, Lewandowski, Kante, Neuer, Marcello just to name a few. Kane plays for a small unsuccessful club therefore by the concenus of popular opinion you appear to be talking out of your rectum. <ok>

    Who he plays for is irrelevant - well, to everybody but you, anyway. Griezmann plays for a team 4th in La Liga, 10 pts behind the leaders. Does that mean he’s no longer world class?

    There doesn’t have to be a limit on the numbers of world class strikers. Yes, Suarez, Ronaldo, Griezmann are world class strikers. But so is Kane..

    I don't think he's quite there yet tbh. In the bracket below for sure, but he's not world class for me. Hopefully he becomes it in Russia next year ;)

    Kane’s an outstanding striker. His finishing ability is ridiculous.

    He’s deadly.

    Plus his all round game is good too. He works incredibly hard.
