It was well written and waffled! I agree with your sentiments. I watched Kane for the first time in this match and throughout the match I thought he was a waste of space! You hit it on the head when you suggested that if at 18 he cannot take criticism where others have been very mature at that age- Giggs, Owen, Lennon Huddleston etc- then he is the wrong job!
Having followed our club a long time I would say that over many years I have seen numerous 'home-product' players try and fail to establish themselves at Spurs. Perhaps it was because we were known as a 'buying club' thrrought the decades of the sixties and seventies, a reality that has stayed with us since those times. Chris Mcgrath, Chris Jones, Terry Gibson were three pretty low key attempts to bring forwards through by us. Perhaps Mark Falco is a more appropriate player with which to compare young Harry Kane. He attended Edith Cavell school, lived in Hackney and played for local side Fields United. Falco played for us from 1979 - 1986 scoring 98 goals. Despite making 236 Spurs appearances and being in several successful sides Falco always seem to have more to prove than most imported players. This is the danger for Kane. People look at the young bloke and assume that as a home product he won't be as good. As has been said he is only 18 and already he has a mountain to climb with many of our supporters doubting he can do it
