So to confirm, we're just ignoring the difference in quality of team and penalties completely then? Ok.
Honestly, someone needs to fill you Spurs fans in on how horrific we were the last two seasons.

Kane's record for England is 5 in 17. He has a quarter of the goals Lukaku has despite being the same age. It's a good indicator, of ability when they are out of the familiarity of club football.
Fair enough, you are free to hold whatever opinion you like.
I'm backing mine up with measurable stats / facts. You?
Thats a fair point. Kane I still think works harder for the team, but Rom's power gives him an edge. I think Rom is quicker and stronger but Kane is a clever player with better movement. As I think Neville said, if you were a team who creates chances Kane is the man. If you are a side struggling then Lukaku can get you up the pitch.
At the moment I think Kane shades it. However I think Lukaku will be the better player longer term. I am also trying to give some balance to the "Lukaku's record is inferior to Kane's" though where people are picking and choosing the seasons they are using. We should use the entirety of the evidence shouldn't we?

I don't think you have said anything mate don't worry we may disagree slightly in football but you have been respectful & polite etc
2013/2014 Everton finished 5th:
Lukaku: Goals 15, Minutes played 2557 (Average of 0.53 goals per 90mins)
2014/2015 Spurs finished 5th:
Kane: Goals 21, Minutes played 2589 (Average of 0.73 goals per 90mins)
There you go two completely comparable seasons.

Barkley's breakout season was a bit better than Alli's 1st season. However since then Alli has been better.
For career, Rom. As far as Kane goes it could be right manager, right club, right set up kind of thing. What you can't deny is that Kane has been excellent and having his best season. He's a deserved front runner for POY.

It's not just about assists. It's about holding the ball up, keeping it, bringing others into play. Lukaku doesn't do that often enough.
Lukaku has scored 80 goals and Kane has 60. They are the same age.
Lukaku has been playing Premier League football since 18, Kane was a later bloomer and has been playing regularly since 21...
what's that meant to tell us? that Kane scored 6 goals more. You said Lukakus scoring record was average. So just to help you out as you seem to be struggling Lukaku has played 122 Premier League games for Everton and has scored 61 goals ( that's a goal every 2 games if you can't count ). He actually averages a goal a game in the fa cup and more than a goal a game in the Europa League
Can you confirm on what planet that is an average striker? Those stats are based on us finishing 5th, 11th, 11th, and currently 7th.
In your own time Jack.
Thats true. However to date Lukaku has been the more consistent scorer.
It's average by being 20 goals better than Harry Kane.

Unfair comparison. Rom was built like Didier Drogba at 16. He was already a fully-grown adult. A bit like Rooney was.
