Harry Kane MBE

If you wanted to know why Harry Kane is so sought after you only have to look at his goalscoring statistics in the Premier League, which are truly outstanding. He scores 60.86% of the time he plays and 69.13% of the time he starts a game.

92 Appearances
81 Starts
56 Goals
12 Braces
2 Hat-tricks
Harry Kane had 6 shots on target against Swansea City on Saturday afternoon and that is more than any other Premier League player in a single match this season.

He is now only 4 goals behind the Golden Boot leader Diego Costa having missed 7 weeks of the season. Not bad for a player some of our supporters were calling a Championship player in 2014!

There are only 3 sides he hasn't scored against, Manchester United, Warford and Cardiff City, who are no longer in the division.

Yep, and his London derby record.

18 goals in 22 matches against London teams. Including several big goals against the Scum.

Class striker, goal machine, good all round play, big game player.
 
Moved another place up the all-time Scorers list for Tottenham, has Crooks,Peters,Archibald and Lineker in his sights now. Should pass them all this season. Maybe even Clive Allen and a place in the Top 20

do you know where I can see a list of our all time top goal scorers?

thanks kind regards ben lambert
 
Despite the rather shaky start to his career, Kane has by far the best minutes-per-goal of any Spurs player over the past quarter of a century...

Kane = 135 minutes-per-goal (139mpg in Premier League)
Pavlyuchenko = 150mpg (178mpg in PL)
Defoe = 164mpg (194mpg in PL)
Klinsmann = 166mpg (169mpg in PL)
Berbatov = 179mpg (212mpg in PL)
Keane = 172mpg (185mpg in PL)
Sheringham = 202mpg (211mpg in PL)
Adebayor = 208mpg (202mpg in PL)
Armstrong = 228mpg (223mpg in PL)
Ferdinand = 239mpg (236mpg in PL)
Iversen = 295mpg (293mpg in PL)
Rebrov = 339mpg (337mpg in PL)

I couldn't find minutes played figures in order to compare Kane to the likes of Lineker, Smith and Greaves though.
 
I though Kane had a good game yesterday, more for the speed at which he played the ball back out to the channels, his speed of passing was top draw, especially in the 2nd half.

Doubt you'll find exact mpg stats for Smith and Greaves as such. Total minutes per game would not have been recorded because substitutes didn't come along until the mid-60s (just one per team) by which time Bobby had already hung up his boots. Jimmy never came on as a sub, though it is possible he was subbed off once or twice in his latter years.

As for time added-on, the ref pretty much blew the full-time whistle when he finally remembered to check his watch :eek:. Sendings-off were also relatively uncommon in those days.

So it's pretty much a case of (appearances x 90)/goals. Thus:

Greaves = 128 mpg (131 mpg in PL equivalent)
Smith = 132 mpg (138 mpg in PL equivalent)

Lineker scored 80 goals in 138 apps all told; 67 in 105 PL, but like you I have yet to find minutes played data.

PS: apologies for gatecrashing your post!

Have now established that, like Greavsie, Lineker never came on as a sub either so on the basis of 90 mins per game we have the final piece of the jigsaw for SteveAWOL's excellent table:

Lineker = 155mpg (141 mpg in PL equivalent)
