Harry Kane’s goal drought is over if 7 goals in two games are anything to go by. Even if this eruption was against, shall we say, two of the most uninspiring international sides in world football?
To be truthful, for me, this was less like watching a chef produce a fine dining experience and more like enduring a hot dog eating competition, with all the slurps, gasps, and burps one might expect from the occasion.
What is Kane going to tell his grandchildren about his career? About the titles and trophies, he secured, or about how many days it took to shake off the smell of mustard and ketchup, after his biggest binges?
He is under appreciated, regardless of what he does. No stupid hairdo, no tattoos, no self obsession with his image only with his football. No controversial comments, no virtue signaling.
He doesn’t fit in with the social media led bullsh*t one needs to engage themselves with in order to be ‘appreciated’…
When not if Kane becomes England’s all time top goal scorer he will be immortalised. He will be in the record books and quiz questions will be framed around him and thus his name will last far longer than many who have won more trophies than him, so his grandchildren will certainly know about him.
It would be sad, very sad, if his goal scoring prowess was not accompanied by a haul of trophies which his talent undoubtably deserves. That said he will be remembered long after his p,aging days are ended.
He may tell them about being the Englands all time top scorer? He has a bucket load of individual accolades, you ahve to wonder why he has not had clubs kidnapping Levy’s kids to get him.
