TBH unless he signs for us I don't care if he breaks down and never plays again either for Spurs or England. Both are equally important in my eyes.
wow someone got out the wrong side of the bed.
I feel its a good point made, i was surprised he hasn't been firing yet this season but forget he didnt really have much of a break and gets played when injured. Shame i wouldn't want him to get anything serious as he used to suffer a bit and would be a huge loss for England.

That's fair enough because it's obvious that you are either not interested in international football or, if you are, you support another country.
Don't quite understand the "we" in "care" though because I'm sure that there any number of England supporters on CL who would have cared had Kane missed the WC through injury. Unless you're royalty, of course, in which case I apologise "your Highness".
He's in a situation where neither club or country have a decent back up for him. So even in the lesser games they can't rest him as there simply isn't anyone who plays the same position without suffering a dramatic drop in talent.
Probably the only position where that's the case too, certainly to the level of Kane vs a replacement, which highlights the problem even more.
I'm not convinced he's fully fit or was fully fit after the group stages of the World Cup. I do rate him but also think he's massively overrated at the same time. I'd still rather have Aguero.

How is he massively overrated? Scored something like 140 goals in 4 and a bit seasons and top scorer at the world cup.
Still has 7 goals in 12 games for Spurs, it's hardly affecting his form that much.
I can see this being his last season for Spurs though.
If he wants to be seen as the best ST in the world he has to get a move to Real. Reckon they’ll try for him in the summer seeing as Lewandowski appears to be off their radar now.

Just don't think his all round game is as good as other forwards.
Two years since I posed this question so a good time to re-visit it
Shearer scored 283 in 559 club games, Kane has 144 in 242
Shearer scored 30 in 63 games for England, Kane has 28 in 43
Shearer turned down the opportunity to join Man Utd. The time may be right for Kane to do so now given that Spurs, under Levy, are not going to strengthen sufficiently to challenge the big two whereas United do have the capability to do so

I don’t agree. United are going nowhere, they are so far behind City and Liverpool. Kane needs to leave to win trophies but going to United wouldn’t provide that in my opinion. Would be better going City as a Aguero replacement.
Sadly, I reluctantly admit that this is likely to be his last season at Spurs. He deserves to win trophies and he wont be doing that at Spurs anytime soon under Levy.
not sure how he’ll get on overseas tbh - he’s a very English player...I think City might look for a replacement for Aguero though I think Man U will spend big too
probably one of those two if anyone but it will take a LOT of money
Harry Kane is greater than the sum of his parts. hes not quick, not great in the air, doesn’t have a trick. But he scores all sorts of goals and shit loads of them and they is something lacking in Manchester - both sides of it really
he is English, special, not a nobhead and therefore worth millions. i loved Shearer, adored Henry but Kane deserves to be spoken about in the same breaths. His record speaks for itself

Exactly by no means was I saying Kane is better than Shearer or Henry, which is why I finished my post by saying Kane will finish his career as one of the best in english football
But he is definitely on the same level as those 2 and unfair to say he is not in their class when you look at his record and his age
All you need to know is he scores lots of goals. No amount of criticism about his pace, touch, work rate or anything else even enters into it. He scores goals and goals of all types.
I cannot for the life of me fathom why anyone in his position would go to United. What a waste that would be.
Money?
Since Bruno Fernandes arrived they have looked at totally different side with the results confirming it too - Won 6 and Drawn 3 and have won at Chelsea and beaten City in that time. That's without Rashford too. They've also only let in 2 goals in their last 11 matches with Maguire at last finding his feet.
A midfield and forward line including Fred, Fernandes, Martial, Rashford and Kane would be infinitely better than that of Spurs. And that also makes the assumption that Pogba will leave in order to fund Kane's purchase but if he doesn't and starts to perform then they really will be a handful.

He is 26 years old and has
136 goals in 198 games for Spurs
32 goals in 45 games for England
Thierry Henry finished with
175 goals in 258 games for Arsenal
51 goals in 123 games for France
Alan Shearer managed
112 goals in 138 games for Blackburn
148 goals in 303 games for Newcastle
30 goals in 63 games for England
Come the end of his career if he carries on the way he is going he could be one of the best strikers in english football ever
