Shearer scored 39 PL goals after that age despite playing for an average side and having several career-threatening injuries in his past. If Kane signs with a good side at 33 I’d stake my house on him getting to that figure. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could all be decent signings but I'd be more concerned if they splashed out on Kane. Seems like 3 risky transfers I wouldn't be surprised to see all 3 flop.

But Shearer scored 283 top flight goals, Kane's only scored 213. At 30 I can't see Kane scoring 71 more English top flight goals to beat Shearer... or are we only talking about Premiership goals? Bit skewed if so. Edited July 30, 2023 by Armchair Pundit Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shearer’s 283 isn’t a top flight record though, so in some ways it’s fairly irrelevant. Obviously for headline purposes, PL is all that matters.

Either way you want but if we are including Shearer’s 23 Div 1 goals then we need to include Greaves’ 357. Kane still miles off. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They didn’t bother with actually noting assists until the C21st, though I imagine someone will have gone back and counted them. I still think they’re basically worthless stats.

Kane still miles off. True, though the fact that Shearer is 5th in the all time rankings and Kane is below Tony Cottee tells its own story. The all time records are the only ones which really count - the PL breakaway didn’t reinvent football in 1992. I don’t like over a century of history being rejected because Sky didn’t have the broadcast rights. And on that list, Shearer is second to only Jimmy Greaves post-war - and Greaves might well be the greatest English centre forward of all time in any case, record or not.

There is little risk of Kane not performing, but I suppose the SA situation changes things with high wage players. Rather than being simply stuck with them if they don't perform or cause trouble like Mane, there's Saudi you can offload them to now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be more concerned about getting a couple of center-backs in. I’m not really as into general football as I used to be so I’m not sure who’s out there up front. The Ange style lends itself to a mobile forward and out-and-out finisher so for once Kane will be less missed. Then you factor in us missing out on Europe, which seems like a real bonus. I think they might run with Richarlison and sub in people like Son and Solomon at times. I think they need at least one guy in up front. The ideal would be a younger English player who would have time to develop. No idea who’d fit the bill though. You’ll not get top class because no Champions League, but there should still be decent money around for wages. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've got this up and coming young lad called Jeff who's destined to be an absolute superstar. We'd hate to let him go but if you chuck £50m our way then I'm sure a deal could be done.

I can’t see Levy selling him to a PL team directly anyway unless the money is insane, and it seems unlikely to be - Man U have already spent fortunes.
