He'd fit perfectly with any team in the world. I think theres a group of Kane, Neymar, De Bruyne, Modric and Hazard who all have a claim for third best player in the world. All depends on your preference.

Amazingly the BBC have just published an article on this, not so surprisingly Kane is nowhere to be found.

But don't worry they've got Virgil van Dijk, two Liverpool players in total.

Modric, brilliant! Can dictate any game he's involved in. He's proven it time and time again & absolutely deserves to be spoken about in the "best in the world" bracket.

He's in the best midfielders of all time-bracket as well.

Hmm not sure, they were also comparing him to Iniesta so maybe Barca too. He must have impressed to have compared him to the finest Spanish player of all time.
Real must see Harry as their natural successor to Ronaldo in terms of sheer goals. Yes, Bale is a superstar, but Kane is the real future.

This season, and subsequently next summer, is so make or break.

I think Mbappe will be the next big thing ... future ballon d'or imo

That's the thing, he's the best number 9 in the world. There's room in any team for a number 9. I think people have a bit of a misconception about Barcelona and the type of player they look for. They have had some great number 9s throughout their history. In fact they play a lot more medium to long balls now than they used too. Kane would fit in so well there as a Suarez replacement.

Hopefully they keep their hands off though. It always seems to be Real Madrid getting linked with him instead. My hope is that winning trophies here will keep him long term. I think he has his heart set on beating Shearers record anyway. However he must win some silverware soon or I'm sure he'll start thinking about it.

I think Madrid is just an easier link due to Benzema and the players they've bought off us in the past. Don't think Kane is going anywhere anytime soon. Of all our big players he's the one I least worry about wanting to leave.

I agree to an extent, however I don't think we should assume he will never leave. I don't think we can take for granted that he's a Tottenham lad. He's an ambitious player and he will want to win things. I think he'll be patient with us but maybe around 30 odd he'll look at leaving if we haven't achieved much. He's the type of player that will still be great well into his 30s anyway so he can afford to be patient.

Thats where I am. I don't have concerns about him wanting to leave at this point in his career, but around 29 or so I could see it happening.

Until Madrid start with all their “sign now or never” bullshit

I genuinely think his top priority (trophies aside) is Shearer's goalscoring record, which at his current rate could be achieved in 4-5 years. Then maybe Spurs all time top scorer (although Jimmy Greaves will take some beating).

There will come a crunch moment probably in next 2 years like gerrard had at Liverpool. The thing is apart from city he really has no guarantee of trophies in this country. And have Real Madrid had their golden period. It’s a bit unlikely they can just keep winning the CL.
