Thats true ability.
It wasn't his PL debut. First PL start of the season.
He has score 45 goals in the PL from a total of 65 starts and 11 sub appearances. That is incredibly impressive.

Yet still there are some who insist that he's too greedy and should pass more often rather than shoot.
No, no and thrice no! The only reason he scores so many is precisely because he is greedy, that is among the most important attributes of a good striker.
Number of times I see other strikers attempting to 'do the right thing' by passing to a supposedly better-placed team mate only to see the ball greedily intercepted and hacked to safety.
So once again I say, keep shooting on sight Harry, that way we might just go on and win the League.

Morning stat alert
Not too bad for a donkey I wanted sold, after he hoofed in that own goal at Sunderland
Kane: 42 goals from 240 shots (5323 minutes) = 17.5% conv rate (127 mins per goal)
Aguero: 42 goals from 243 shots (4326 minutes) = 17.3% conv rate (103 mins per goal)
Costa: 31 goals from 136 shots (4104 minutes) = 22.8% conv rate (132 mins per goal)
Lukaku: 28 goals from 205 shots (5393 minutes) = 13.7% conv ratio (193 mins per goal)
Giroud: 26 goals from 164 shots (3866 minutes) = 15.9% conv rate (149 mins per goal)

And those stats don't show the half of it.
You don't see the other 4 tracking back to cover in defence, come back in to the midfield to receive the ball and work his ass off for the full 90 minutes.

Other than Aguero, there is no other striker in the league I would take over him.

Indeed...
Kane: 91 tackles, 34 interceptions, 62 blocks

Lukaku: 34 tackles, 2 interceptions, 12 blocks
Giroud: 88 tackles, 16 interceptions, 37 blocks

I think those numbers only include guys who have been consistent for more than 6 months at the highest level
I used to think this. Now, I wouldn't take Aguero over Harry, I think Kane is the best player in the division. He scores so many and does so much for the team.

Put his stats up for this calendar year and there not good
The real question now that Kane has equaled last season's PL tally (which is probably a more difficult task than first season).
How good is Harry Kane? the numbers put him there with Aquero (who is to me a brilliant striker), but who would you compare him to legitimately at this point?
Finney Is Back
Andy Thompson
While I think Aguero is a phenomenal player, I still wouldn't take him over Kane. Remember that Kane is yet to reach his prime, whereas Aguero is probably a year or two into his prime.
