Shearer did too to be fair
In fairness, Shearer kicked people in the face too. Was a nasty player, but I guess you needed to be to get 30 goals a season consistently.
Shearer did too to be fair
I remember the Dawson one but not the player who was the guilty party...waited until Dawson jumped for the header and then just nudged him enough to put him off balance enough to land awkwardly and fuck himself up...totally blatant and he knew exactly what he was doing. Real xxxxish thing to do and Dawson was out for a long time.If you have played as a defender, then you know this can be a dangerous move by a striker. Had it done to me a few times. Mostly without harm. But one time I did snap and dislocate my elbow. The crack was so loud it made one of their midfielders puke!!! And on another occasion I landed quite badly on my neck. And that is now a chronic injury. However, it was not just that one incident, as it is also a case of disc osteophyte complex too. (degenerative arthritis in my upper spine, neck area). Regardless of my maladies, it can be dangerous. I remember our Dawson being on the wrong end of one of those, and was out for a spell. I can’t remember the name of the striker. He player for Soton for years and was a rough-em-up type of forward. Then again my memory might be playing tricks on me.
i would like to think Harry isn’t doing this intentionally, in the sense that he is wanting to hurt someone. But it is a move that many, many strikers do, and I’ve never been a fan. In some cases, I do believe they do it with the intention of causing harm. But with Kane, i doubt that is his master plan. He mostly does it, as a way to win fouls. But singling him out, is dumb and histrionic, because this is standard fare for most strikers.
can we move on from this boring non story now? Kane moves under the flight of the ball then protects himself because the other player is absolutely flying in and he realises he cant win it. Obviously he is going to brace himself as a grown mans knees fly through the air towards him. I can understand why some opposition fans want to see him not protect himself from getting flattened but as spurs fans I think we should be happy he's protecting himself we kind of need him. This has happened for decades and its never been an issue don't add fuel to these jealous muppets fire by joining in.
This has always happened. Backing in has always been a thing. Why people are getting so hung up on it now is beyond me.
if you rewatch every game from the weekend I’m sure you’ll see this happen countless times in every game.
I genuinely don’t know what the people bashing Kane think he should be doing otherwise? Is he meant to just move out of the way and let his opponent win the ball?
He drops his shoulders as he braces for impact, and why. It when there’s someone flying through the air toward him?
Imagine Twitter and football forums if Shearer was playing nowadays. All Kane is doing is backing in. Shearer used to elbow anyone who came within a metre of him.
Anyway, while we're discussing Harry's signature moves. Maybe he is a little bit dangerous. ?
And as a CF do you know how many times I was cleaned out by a pie eating clogger jumping knees up high into my back.If you have played as a defender, then you know this can be a dangerous move by a striker.

What Trix saidWhy should I jump when I'm already underneath the ball?
