I had a look at this discussion on the Kane thread on SC. The poster who made the suggestion that Kane's "underdeveloped palate" and associated breathing problems were not being handled properly by our medical team also went on in a later post to say :
So Harry Kane, the consummate professional from anything that most of us will have seen and read, someone clearly highly driven, motivated and dedicated from an early age to achieve his footballing dream, (and which he has by some miracle managed to achieve despite being raised on a diet of Mother's Pride and sugary treats), is in fact secretly binging away on bad foods and sweets at home and this is impacting not only his footballing performance, but his overall health to the extent his major organs might be at risk?
Or, in an alternative world, Harry not quite firing on all cylinders could be due to any or all of :
a) not being at full fitness due to an extended holiday after the Euros meaning he missed most of the pre-season conditioning work;
b) playing in a team where the main creative force, Eriksen (now that Mason has left
) is also significantly off form;
c) playing in a team where one of his main link-up players of last season, Ali, is also off-form;
d) playing in a slightly deeper position which whilst not unfamiliar to him, is not where he has generally played for the past two seasons;
e) adapting to playing alongside/in support of another striker;
f) being naturally a slow-starter in the goal-scoring stakes.
Sometimes (most times) the simple answer is the right one.
