Kane and Son! A magic partnership.

Does anyone know the last time we had 2 players finish the season with 20 or more league goals?

That pass from Harry just keeps on getting better and better every time I see it. First he skips past the defender, and plays an almost reverse pass to absolute perfection. This season there isn’t a single player who can pass like him. He truly is a world class player.

For me I think Kane has always had this passing ability I remember going to an away game against Swansea with my Son and Kane's pass to Dele was a thing of beauty and a goal was scored from then I really made a point of looking out for his passing ability .
It has always been there But for some reason not noticed by so many as of this moment in time .
If you wanted to look back on old posts you will see I said " Kanes passing is on a par with Johnny Haynes and he should really be a no10 as he would still score his share of goals but have more opportunity to bring other players into the game"
One bloke called me stupid and knowing nothing about football but as I say it's always been there this passing ability but seems to be noticed more at this moment in time .

While the rest of your post is spot on, this just isn’t true, what would be fairer to say is that there isn’ta single player who can pass like him and as regularly as he does while also maintaining a superb goal output.

Real ones always knew about Kane's passing ability when he setup Eric Dier for the winner against West Ham on the opening day in 2014/15

Some of us knew even before then... ?
He's good in the air, has good ball control, is creative (did anybody notice the beautiful slide through pass to Lennon to assist one of our goals v WBA?), knows when to drop off and when to make a run, has a thunderous long shot (remember his goal in the Carling Cup this season?), can beat a man with the ball at his feet and hold onto it under pressure. He also works bloody hard. He is 20, so is only going to improve, how much is up to him really. His movement means that as long as crosses come in, he will always have chances, so if he becomes better from close up he is capable of being at least a good goalscorer if not a great one, and he's shown that he is able to make chances for himself too.

Having had the pleasure of witnessing just about every game that Glenn Hoddle played for us I think that Harry has that same awareness and capability. It's innate.

Something HK has that enables him to read everything that is going on around him all across the pitch and having the nous to play those balls with precision and weight most of the time. Pleasure to watch.

He's always had brilliant passing ability, we're just seeing it more now due to playing a slightly different role in the team. Jose knew he was our best passer in the squad so has used this to the benefit of the team.
