Today is the day spurs get it right 3-0
Everybody does it. He only gets picked up on it because he is high profile. Total storm in a tea cup from blinkered social media types.
Not in the way he does; look at Cavani at the end of the FA cup game. He is smart he wins the free kick by backing in. What Kane has been doing is completely different and endangering opponents - there was a clip of 7 or 8 of them doing the rounds a while ago and very lucky there isnt a serious injury.
There is no excuse for this (I just searched for "Kane backing in"

I could find loads of incidents exactly the same by other players if I could be bothered. But I can't.
Kane score goals
Slag him off for being a one season wonder
Kane scores goals
Slag him off for being a flat track bully
Kane scores goals
Slag him off for talking funny
Kane scores goals
Slag him off for 'backing in'
Can you see the pattern?
They aren't mutually inclusive things though. Anyone who argues the one season wonder etc; is simply and idiot. This is entirely different.
This shouldn't be belittled as mocking him, or hammering him for because he is Harry Kane. This is dangerous play. He continues to put players health at risk to cheat his way to frees and penalties. Yes, Salah, Mane and many more cheat their way to deceive referees, but this is entirely different as Harry Kane has put careers at risk. If this continues & expands in terms of other players doing it with a similar frequency a broken neck or serious injury is inevitable.
It's not a pattern of blaming Kane, it's something that has come to light and needs to be stopped. Dont conflate the two
So you are suggesting Harry Kane is the only player that does it/has done it?
But there is no anti-Kane agenda?

Anything that gets Jose running up an down the touchline winding up klopp and the rsI would LOVE it if we did.
97th min Kane penalty for the winner after backing in to the centre half would be glorious.
Suarez did it all the time. So did Drogba. Liverpool fans hate Harry Kane because he gets the majority of the media attention when he’s away with England whereas most of their players have been terrible for England including Henderson which is why he’s not captain. That’s why all these ridiculous agendas come up against him. It’s the same with Pogba. If any player is taking their precious media limelight off them they start to fume and find ridiculous ways to discredit them.

Two divers for sure, but with neither of them can I recall consistently endangering the opposition by doing this. They key point with what Kane does, is he waits till they are in the air to cheat and nick this free. There is a reason tackling in the air was banned in rugby & that is a niche that Kane has nailed.
As I said above, backing in and "winning" a free as Cavini did at the weekend is absolutely fine, part of the game etc etc. What is different is Cavani didnt cause risk to Fabinho (i think), but turning him 180 degress while he is in the air.
