    If kane moves to bench warm and get trophies they are worthless medals.

    Same as coutinho's glorious haul or others who have done so.

    If we look at the really big names who have moved like.henry and suarez to barca or bale or beckham to real they have earned those trophies.

    People who jump at city to sit on a bench and play the pretend I won a medal are no better than those guys who turn up the week of the Sunday league cup final for the first time.

    Kane has his personal glory. Unlike Shearer hes not moved early to get a medal so he has taken the wages at spurs and theres no shame in being a one club man with a few golden boots.

    When he is 60 he can look back on dinner nights and still have his pints paid for ;)

    Maybe he will become an england legend (lineker traded in a 1986 golden boot)

    Sadly the first decent team.england play will put them.out of the euros as southgate is a no mark.

    If Kane went to Citeh he wouldn't be a bench warmer.

    Granted he'd be rotated more than he is now and would have to accept not playing every game (when fit) and also probably have to accept being another part of the team rather than Saint Harry of Spurs.
    But he'd still be a big Star at City and their main striker.

    Valencia player allegedly racially abused in game v cadiz.

    Players leave the pitch in protest but come back out. With the player who was allegedly abused substituted.

    Valencia club making a big deal.on Twitter but their actions say something very different.

    The player who allegedly abused the guy is still on with no repercussions and valencia playing away.

    The only person affected is the alleged victim.of abuse.

    Referee is claiming the player would not say what he reacted to.


    Valencia have bottled the time to make a stand and said they were playing for the honour of the club.

    Of course the guy who got the abuse has their "backing"

    It's fairly obvious the guy refused to play further but wasnt backed.

    I agree on that, cause Pep doesn't really do strikers (prefers 'Forwards')
    But if he did go to City I can't see him being benched because of who he is, like Aguero.

    Its another reason he could be stuck at Spurs, winning northing. He's Zaha but at a Club that might get to the odd final now and then.

    Question is, is he willing to accept little reward from his playing days.

    How many finals has kane got to now?

    This league cup might be 3rd time lucky but city are massive favourites.

    Kane only actually has 2 prem golden boots. He has of course the penalty driven world cup golden boot I guess.

    Overall its not a fantastic return is it but in fairness to the guy he is a victim.of the city and chelsea money just as much as anyone.

    Under poch you have to wonder should spurs not have won something if not for that "dominance"

    Brighton so comfortable then one silly pass and united are in and score.

    looked close to a pen and red card on wellbeck from maguire there. Didn’t touch the ball abs just nudged him in the back from behind.

    One of those that was 50/50 you’d fee and wouldn’t be overturned which ever way the ref gave it.

    I get the feeling Kane would be happy if he won nothing but became all time prem top scorer. His name would be mentioned at top of lists for long time (how long has shearer lived off that being a hero at Newcastle with only winning one medal in his whole career while at Blackburn).

    Does make me laugh that if a forward even breathes near the back of a defender in the box it’s immediately a foul for the defender.

    yet the other way the contact has to be so much more.

    two identical scenarios there. Maguire trips welbeck in front of goal no foul.

    shaw falls over facing his own goal, immediately a foul.

    A very very very long time.

    This is a good reason I firmly believe he will never leave spurs as we is assured his game all the way to 35 or 36.

    If he went to city within 2 years he would be on the bench imo.

    If he left england that record would be gone

    That Maguire tackle would have definitely been given as a pen if against Kane. Welbeck is not savvy enough?

    wasn’t too different from the luiz one that was a pen and red card, the saints one v united that was also a pen and red card (although the red got rescinded). Just a collision but the Brighton attacker was in front so as a defender it’s your obligation to make sure you don’t make contact.

    was clear contact so not sure how ref doesn’t give it tbh

    Terrible result for brighton and again self inflicted.

    They had a lead there that had to be protected and they would have been just about safe.

    They still have time and imo just need 2 wins

    I thought they tried too hard to protect it, stopped playing and came unstuck.

    i've been saying for ages that the majority of "dives" are by defenders who just hit the deck when under pressure knowing the ref will 99% of the time give them a relieving FK .

    yeah, hamann was infamous for just dropping in his own half and getting a cheap free. all you need do now is turn your back on play and stop and let an attacker bump you and its a free.
