Even a half fit and off form HK can almost single handed-ly win a match against the reigning world cup runners-up.

He's just the best, ain't he?

Kane is where he's at at the moment.

Personally I think he's just adding depth to his game (likewise Dele, who is also fairly obviously playing a tactically very different game at the mo), while others cry about whatever the hell they're crying about.

Question to all the 'he needs to be subbed/rested more' people is, how many world class players regularly spend time on the sidelines?

Generally they don't, and more often than not they don't have top quality replacement if they do...

He was very good today should had 3 or 4 goals

I'm not sure I can confidently put Kane in the same class as Ronaldo and Messi, but they don't play in the BPL. Which in my estimation a far more physically demanding league, and also there is great deal less of a burden on those two considering the players they have alongside them.

Although I think for Harry to reach the level of world class he has to manage these busy periods, get through them whilst performing which TBF I think he generally has!

We've seen it quite a bit with hazard, but he seems to be a little delicate mentally. For me, that's what's stopping him getting to the top pedestal and keeping him from being up there with ronaldo, messi etc.

I think La Liga was a cake walk for these two for 99% of their careers. They only broke a sweat when playing each other or a couple of seasons ago when Simeoni went through that purple patch with Atletico. The rest of the time it was a sleepwalk. Kane has to battle with big lumps trying to kick bits out of him every time he runs out.

That’s the thing that will diminish their achievements in hindsight. Real and Barca. That’s like letting Liverpuke and Manshit loose in the Ryman League against Wingate and Finchley and Bognor Regis on a weekly basis.

His hold up game and all round play has improved in the last year or so. He really is a complete striker
Don’t get this at all. Right from the start, when he was struggling for goals, every man and his dog, commentators and rivals alike, were saying he was still worth his place in the side for all the other stuff he did, apart from scoring. The question was always ‘could he add regular goals at the top level’.
