The winner is coming from Ronaldo or Messi no matter what they do.
Unfortunately players love getting these awards, reality to the savvy supporter is very very different. This award is a pure pals act award, its as bent as they come.
Last season he had 7 assists, which was second only to Sanchez of the players scoring 10 goals or more. (According to BBC's stats.)Harry Kane has no assists. Don't get me wrong love the goals but he could do better on the assist side sometime put Alli in.
He had 7 assists in the Premier League last season. I mean, it isn't Maradona in his prime, but it's more than enough for a player from whom creating is only a secondary task.Harry Kane has no assists. Don't get me wrong love the goals but he could do better on the assist side sometime put Alli in.
Bigger impact than Ronaldo who scored 10 goals from the quarter finals onwards in the CL, by far the biggest factor in deciding a Balon d'Or winner, to drive Madrid to winning the CL as well as La Liga?Biased or not @DJS, Kane would be a deserved winner for his contribution. Influence in the CL for the next few games could be crucial to whether he gets higher in the nominations.
Much bigger inpact on football this year compared to Messi or Ronaldo. Could be interesting.

This season I'm talking about.
To add to the debate I think for Kane to win he needs to have a 2018 that matches his 2017, and go deep in the CL and WC, possibly winning golden boot in both.
The crazy thing is you could see him doing it!
Because it's easier to make his point.Why?
I can't see him going deep in the World Cup. Unfortunately for him, he's English.
Worse sides have had better tactical plans and players suited to the manager's plan. I think England have the players, if all are fit, to have a good tournament and if Southgate can practice what he preaches they could do well. Problem is Southgate's selections have often been at odds with what he seems to want to achieve.Its possible. People mock England but we still qualified with ease. Jusy need a few things to go in our favour, worse sides have achieved more.
