Aye ridiculous display by Kane, hell of a player, just an all round quality striker. The technique on his second goal man, he made it look like it was piss easy.

 

ages ago I laughed off suggestions he might beat Shearer's Premier League record... not so confident now.

He needs another 200 goals or so? Only 23.

 

Like you I thought no chance.  I dont think he will like, but think it will be tighter than I thought it would.

He's the first player I've seen that might come close.

 

1.62 Games per Goal, or c23 goals a season. He'd need another 8 and a bit seasons at that rate to get to 260. That said, a couple of 30 goal seasons (which isn't beyond him) and obviously that total doesn't seem so far away.

 

Few caveats of course;
He'll have to stay in the Premier League which is less likely now than it was in Shearer's day
He'll need to stay relatively injury free

 

Lukaku's only 23 goals off the 100 club and he's the same age as Kane. Think he'd have to leave Everton if he wanted to regularly post >20 goals a season.

Rooney could still eclipse Shearer's PL record but that seems a lot less likely now than it did a few seasons back. He's still 65 behind

 

Unless he scores 66 more this season he's not doing.

If he does he won't break Shearer's record.

FWIW, I don't think he will whatever happens but he's the only one still playing who is relatively close to it and who could do it.

Hell of a paycut to go back to Everton...

 

I think that for the sake of his England career and the chance to become the most capped outfield player he'll stay in the PL and there's nowhere else in England he would go.

Be interesting to see that actually. He's on something like £300k/week isn't he? Hard to imagine him stepping down to around £100k/week (which I suspect is at the upper limits of what Everton could afford) but it'd be a refreshing statement if he did.

That would be just awful, wouldn't it? :lol: The money he's on there is fucking potty like. He wasn't worth that (even taking into account the cost of replacing him) when he signed the contract, let alone now.

It's a canny achievement mind for someone who's not an out and out goalscorer, to get as many as he has. He's a neuf et demi [/hipster wanker]

 

Aye, for a player that many would consider to have never fulfilled his potential he's still England and Man United's record goalscorers.
