Essential The Official Football (Soccer) Thread - The Slotification of Liverpool is nearly complete

We're overlooking the fact that if he goes on a free next year he has a choice of clubs and will get paid significantly, and it will work out more than he'd get if he went somewhere now on a big wage.

Good point. But an injury or dip in form changes that. It’s a gamble

Injury yeah, but unless it's a career ender then no problem really.

Even if he got less than 20 league goals this season there would still be teams lining up.

Not denying that at all. But who had the higher high? Kane is boringly consistent. Torres has the moments that will be talked about much longer.

Torres had one, yes ONE single season of over 20 PL goals in 8 seasons.

Kane has 6 20+ seasons(2 with 30 goals) in his last 9.

Stop it.

Im not doing a one to one comparison, yes Kane is that guy.

But to your point injuries derailed Torres’ career. He absolutely was capable of scoring more goals. Kane has been relatively lucky in that regard. He’s always available.

I guess maybe I am being too much of a hater but I don’t even think that’s it. I think Kane is a great footballer…his passing and control is actually fun to watch…but how is he scoring so much

This is why I respect Pep and Man City. 🫡

Just one pre-season of Kovacic and they said nah, this ain't it. It took us 5 years to reach the same conclusion.

 

[DapMeUp!]

Will he do it or bottle it?

Looks like he's bottling it

I mean he will get his move next year, but why would you want to spend one more year in the toilet bowl?

It’s clear Kane wants to stay in the UK and get the EPL record. From a legacy standpoint, it’s a shame because I can see him ending up trophyless but he’s happy in Tottenham then fair play

Turns out West Ham had not 1 but 2 £100m midfielders. Who knew.

I just want to point as well that was by far the most unpopular opinion I’ve shared on here …the Vardy edit was me trolling

Rest of that post was on point

 

[Givethanks]

Damn.

Other reports now saying he left training on a stretcher.

No Striker, No Keeper, and still no RB.

Madrid needs to pull a rabbit out a hat to fix this mess
