Because people say he’s the next shearer , drogba , sharp and give people dogs abuse when they say he’s not good at kicking a football
No one has ever made those comments. The ONLY thing posters have done is comment that certain leading players took time to reach a level of goalscoring consistency.
I watched a fair bit of Kane when he was younger, finishing was awful, always got plenty of chances but was poor.
I don’t know whether he was snatching at them and maybe now he has a calmness around the box his finishing has improved or he worked really hard.
Kane looked absolutely dreadful when he was younger...a lot of posters on here couldnt understand how he kept being selected
League games DCL has 16 goals in 92 games (a lot of them he has started) that’s about 1 goal in 6, that’s an awful return from the amount he has played.
If a player gets 1 minute of every match as a sub for 90 games and scores 1 goal, then only a fool would count that as 1 goal in 90 games when measuring statistics.
Its far too simplistic.
Don’t make me dig out the actual goals per game stats please, it’s Christmas.
PL: 16 in ~54 which is almost a 1-in-3
All Comps: 24 in ~66 which is just better than 1-in-3
Add to that 10 assists and a flurry of won penalties and I think he’s done okay. By no means prolific just completely tired of people trying to use stats then not using them properly.
Merry Christmas Dominic from your biggest fan x
In terms of minutes played I think last season we saw him begin to evolve after January and then now has taken another step forward in terms of all round play.
It seems alot is to do with his confidence and getting (shock horror) a run in the team.
I think my maths isn’t the best but in the league on Wiki , DCL has 16 goals in 92 games (he has started a lot of them) so his goal stats is I believe a goal every 5.75 games. I picked out another random PL striker for an example, Chris wood of Burnley he has 27 goals in 78 games his stats are a goal every 2.8 games. People rave about DCL all round game and it’s ok, but a striker needs much better than a goal ever 5.75 games.
The only way to assess forwards goalscoring stats is based on mins per goal as a sub/starter and then break that down per position they played in.
I would imagine he has better than 1 in 3 when played as a centre forward.
It really isnt hard to understand.
What do you know of Kean that we don’t? He’s so raw and needs years of coaching! Why was he sold with no buy back if he’s got it?
He was racially abused.
He had 1 year on his deal.
He had several experienced players including Ronaldo ahead of him.
His agent is Mino Raiola.
We paid a higher fee to have the buyback removed.
