Canary Wundaboy 1,423 Posted January 26, 2023 Having watched him play for us in the flesh, I never thought he'd get anywhere close to the level he has achieved. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
It's Character Forming 1,204 Posted January 26, 2023 It's fair to say that if you'd told me he would win the Premier League and World Cup golden boot awards, I'd have laughed. Although I did feel there was a decent player in there at the time, albeit you could tell he was very short on confidence and feeling out of his depth to be starting in the first team for us. I am dubious nowadays when people are very keen to write off new signing pretty quickly, not just Kane, but players like Vrancic or Stiepermann who were viewed as rubbish but turned out to be key players for us. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Absolutely this. People seem hellbent on making their minds up after five minutes rather than waiting and seeing.

BroadstairsR 2,273 Posted January 26, 2023 (edited) Kane only played three games for City in an injury interupted spell. It was Spurs who recalled him in what was to be a season long loan. All I remember is him messing up a one-on-one (against Man. City) a game we went on to lose. It was that moment that caused many of us to doubt his ability I suspect.

Mr Angry 2,014 Posted January 26, 2023 So, even 10 years ago people were making snap judgements, writing off players after 2 hours of Premier League football. Beyond ridiculous (and obviously didn't see him score two and assist one in an hour in his only Under 21 Premier League match). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Absolutely this, and at another/bigger club could have won plenty. His rapid rise in ability and physique since then was incredible. He looked like an absolute donkey for us!

Clear as day he was too raw for the prem and still is now though there’s clearly a talented player there. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I guess the biggest difference with Kane is that Spurs supported him throughout his formative years. Gilmour, already been a victim of the chopping and changing around that we see at Chelsea. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Bunny 326 Posted January 27, 2023 I was there. Took my then 5-year old son to his first ever Norwich game. Thought it would be nice to start with an easy win... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
