Question for you guys. Depending on how Lukaku does and how Spurs do in the next few seasons would you want us to move for Kane? I remember Ed saying in the skarkopod it could be a possibility in a few years, so would you take him or maybe someone else?

05 Feb 2018 20:13:46
I'd take him in a heartbeat. Best English striker since Shearer, and I think he'll go on to be one of the best. There's already not many better than him.

It was interesting to listen to Rooney saying that players are judged on what they win. Which of course is true. He reckons Kane will get itchy feet if spurs don't win a trophy soon. ' goals oy take you so far you are judged on what you win, on your medal count ' makes sense to me. Harry Kane will move if he is not winning because inevitably players are judged on what they win.

What a player. Really fantastic. He is something special.

05 Feb 2018 22:23:26
I'm with you here Stevie I would LOVE kane at united.

05 Feb 2018 23:05:30
Echo what has been said above. He is a fantastic player who is so deadly in front of goal. Rooney said tonight he reminds him of Ruud van nistelrooy and can’t argue with that. I think if spurs aren’t winning he will look to leave and we should do anything to sign him.

It’s funny because just like Salah he doesn’t really look like a footballer yet give him the ball and he’s incredible. I think he will go on to a great career, my fear if he joined us is whether he would get any service. Lukaku is a goal machine but can’t seem to get the ball right now.

Ken
Kane is a fantastic player anyone can see it.
If sold he will go for mega money and every top club would want him .

A yet he has won nothing not a single thing.

He will move because top players want to win things and get paid lots.

06 Feb 2018 10:36:47
Yep and that's how players are judged inn what they win.

06 Feb 2018 10:52:10
No it's not Ken.
Kane is judged by what he does on the football pitch .
This obsession with fancy names and belief that if you play for a big team it means your a great player is childish.
It's why auier was the best rb in the league in the summer .

Kane won nothing, yet is rightly judged as one of the best out there .
Maybe the best 9 since shearer who was an amazing player . Shearer Won 1 trophy in his entire career . But surely no one would be daft enough to judge him by that?

06 Feb 2018 11:06:20
If Madrid or any other team break the bank for Kane it will have nothing to do with what he has or hasn't won .
Won't come I to, it will be about what he can and can't do on the pitch .

06 Feb 2018 15:28:13
I will like to stick with Lukaku, Need to compare the amount of chances created for Kane and Lukaku and their conversion rate.
Lukaku won't be far behind him.

{Ed's Note - we have posted a new article entitled, Review Of The Day 5th February 2018

05 Feb 2018 06:44:17
Nice stuff Ed.
Don’t think Allardyce will last long in Everton really. I think he won’t be able to strengthen them imho.
Pep trying to bs about his only 6 subs. He is a shame to the football scene.
KdB talking about exhaustion. I thought only recently he talks very big about how Citeh is so strong and great. What a dumbass.
Conte worries about his possible sacking? He may have lost the locker room and even Abramovich support. Has his testicles shrank?
VvD accused Kane of diving. Funny. Game is over and get on with life 🤣🤣. He should not have kicked Lamela. It is what it is and stop whining.
The PL is getting more interesting from here for 3rd and 4th place.

{Ed001's Note - cheers mate. It was an interesting round up, everyone just wants to put across an agenda these days.}

05 Feb 2018 07:42:34
Yeah I know 🤣🤣
But at least I trust your review than what’s in the other media.
We have our favorite teams and support them but I know your review should be fair and not bias (I hope) .
Thanks for such efforts as I know it’s not easy.

{Ed001's Note - I try and leave bias out as much as possible which is why I don't comment on Liverpool stuff. There is plenty of opportunity for me to comment on them on the Liverpool site so it makes sense to leave it alone to avoid unconscious bias.}

05 Feb 2018 08:33:32
You’re champ Ed 👍👏.

{Ed001's Note - people will think I am paying you for the compliments! Thank you though mate it does make it all feel worthwhile researching and writing.}

05 Feb 2018 13:07:05
Allardyce probably should be looking over his shoulder. Everton didn't really want him in the first place so he is bound to be under more pressure than most to prove himself. Now with what was their first choice Silva without a job it would be easy enough to sack him and bring in the manager they were prepared to pay millions for on a free.

{Ed001's Note - strange choices of managers for the clubs changing these days. I mean Marco Silva? Hadn't they just got rid of one disorganised mess maker in Martinez only to try and repeat the mistake with Silva. But then to go to the complete opposite extreme with Allardyce is bizarre. Almost as bizarre as the decisions Allardyce is making. It feels like he is deliberately messing things up at times.}

05 Feb 2018 13:36:53
How you paying me?
You support Scousers and I ManUtd
I don’t know who the hell you really are and I am Asian
You m not worried 🤣🤣🤣 but we are football supporters that’s all we have in common
Thanks.

{Ed001's Note - I know mate, I was just joking.}

Everton is the job that would be perfect for Howe or Dyche to really prove themselves. Rather than just picking the first random foreign name that comes out of the hat.

05 Feb 2018 14:31:52
Nou but would Howe or Dyche want? No offense to Everton. Everton must be prepared to fully support the manager. Else perhaps they might want Moyes back 😉🤣.

05 Feb 2018 15:11:56
Eddie Howe would suit that job down to the ground. He likes to get his team's to play a bit and I think looking at that squad of players it is more suited to a manager who wants his team to play good football. They don't have the quality in defence to invite teams onto them. Williams and Jagielka don't have any pace, Keane has been questionable. Mangala doesn't look like he knows how to defend but is decent with the ball at his feet and has bags of recovery pace.

I would look to bring in one or two more quick defenders, then play 4141 and press teams high up the pitch and hope the defenders are quick enough to recover when fingered against.

Out side of the top six there are no teams with the luxury of being able to build a balanced squad as they tend to get their best players picked off by the bigger sides.

So I think you need to make a decision and go all out defensive or all out offensive. Know your strength and play to it. They can't get the quality of players all over the pitch to have a balanced side. So why try being something that your not?

05 Feb 2018 18:17:22
"When fingered against"?

05 Feb 2018 22:05:55
Its the hot new tactic due to sweep the game.

06 Feb 2018 13:55:57
Count me in! Time to pull the boots on again.
