This isn’t going to be a popular view but our overall team movement with a second string team is at times better to watch without Kane. More runners and overlaps which we tend to lack. In other news, Eriksen still can’t kick a static ball.
The real benefit for moving in ASAP was the fans were going to settle in instantly, especially after a couple of seasons at the soulless bowl of misery, and if an enthused crowd behind the team could give the team that extra 10% that was definitely lacking in some of the last games at Wembley that would be enough to improve results regardless of whether or not the players had issues settling in
Yeah Kane drops too deep and steps on the toes of the attacking 3 That’s why I believe he needs some educating on that position. He seems very hungry for personal glory...as admirable as that is...I think we would be a better team if he stayed in and around the Penalty area thus allowing the others to do their magic
He didn't help too much against Burnley and Saints did he Alfie? He scored but we lost you might recall, he's not here and we're winning.
So you want him to defend as well, KWP gave away a needless free kick for saints to score the winner and Foyth was mugged off by 2 very savvy Burnley' forwards, without Kanes goals we would be looking forward to Thursday nights playing a bunch of farmers or tractor plant workers like that lot down the road
