Rafael Van Der Vaart
My MOM tonight (I know there was nothing amazing going on) solely for that clearance of the line.
I like my footballers intelligent and fully focussed on how they can affect the game at all times.
Kane's job is to mark the man near the front post, as soon as it becomes apparent that the flight of the ball is well above their heads he knows that job is redundant and is he straight onto the next job. As in this case it's re-positioning yourself to what 'might' happen next. Quite often (especially at this level) you can't react to what's happened, you'll be too late, you're playing percentages all the time.
I bet if you replayed 100 corners from different teams and looked at what the player does whose doing a similar job to Kane at a corner very few (if any)would do what Kane did.
I know it gets said but that was as good as a goal.
Someone said to me on here last week that Harry has such football intelligence that he’d be our best centre back if he chose to play there. There’s an element of truth in that.
Great player, great pro, great lad. We’re blessed to be watching him in our shirt. I’m not sure he’s the most naturally talented player I’ve seen in our colours but I’m certain that he’s the best.
