Harry Kane MBE

Kane has started 28, 38 and 29 league games in the last three seasons respectively. He looks well on track to another high number of starts this season.

Seems a strange basis for saying that our style is causing injuries. Those aren't bad numbers at all.

It is what he is doing in those games that will cause muscle injuries. I love Kane and Poch, but I have a theory that around 29 his form will drop off a cliff a bit like Robbie Keane did. I wonder if Kane will look to leave a little before then to prolong his career.

Perhaps, and it's a valid theory. I just don't see that much evidence supporting that. It happened to Keane, but without playing in particularly pressing teams.

I get the logic of more work equals more strain, this earlier serious fitness problems. But on the other hand Pochettino makes sure our players take care of themselves physically, perhaps more than at other teams. And the players we assemble are perhaps naturally more fit and can handle that strain more than players at other teams.

And the games he missed were due to contact injuries, not muscle injuries due to improper training.

Come on, it's the first time weve lost in a Pl game without Harry iirc.

Poch ballsed up the team selection and we were not positive and creative enough. That's all.

Fair, but it's a bit galling that it's happening literally after he made that comment. We're not proving him wrong, really - proving him right. Which frustrates and annoys me.

Not publicly, but must of been thinking it and plenty of others have said it for past year or two. Don't quite get why you're so hung up on his comment anyway, everyone including him knows we're not a one man team....

I dislike him, and I dislike City even more, that's why. Mourinho's honest about being a c*nt. Guardiola isn't. Which is why proving him right frustrates me, whether or not he believes what he says.

But that's the point, it hasn't proved him right. Just because we lost a game Kane didn't play doesn't make us anymore the Harry Kane team than a game that we win with Kane scoring the winner makes us the Harry Kane team. It's also highly debatable whether he meant it in that way anyway, really wouldn't worry about the subject.....

First ever loss in the league without Kane though in 3 years isn’t it?

Sure, probably. But first since those comments, is my point.

Right, but he's wrong, I know that -you know that ,everyone knows that.

Except him. He doesn't know that. And any win after that without Kane would have been a good way to shut him up, if nothing else.

Why galling?

Who cares what Guardiola says? Literally no-one, apart from red top clickbait journos.

And one league game is proof of nothing.
