Kane has played 286 PL games and scored 187 goals. If you include the First Division games, from Shearer’s first 287 top level games he scored 160 goals. That’s fairly close. At that point, Shearer was 26 going on 27. Kane just turned 29, so Shearer had a couple years head start. Shearer had another nine seasons in him, and I can’t see Kane playing that long. Shearer’s record from that point was 272 games and 123 goals. It does rather put it in perspective. It’s four solid goal scoring seasons, sure, but if Kane can eke out another 6 PL seasons (and Shearer managed 7 more after he was Kane’s age now) then I think he has every chance.

leffe186 Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 My Dad would want me to bring up Jimmy Greaves at this point. Shearer played 559 top flight games and scored 283 goals (just over one in two). Kane has played 286 games (about half of Shearer’s) and scored 187 goals (just under two in three). Greaves played 516 top flight games and scored 357 goals. That’s insane. He was basically pissed for his last three seasons too and scored “only” 21 goals in 66 games.

AyeDubbleYoo Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 Kane is an absolutely twat so I want him to achieve as little as possible But I don’t really care if Al is top scorer or someone else, he’s a legend whatever. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest HTT II Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 Records are there to be broken. Kane has been an outstanding player for club and country. I like him personally. If he does break Shearer’s record, that will have been one hell of an achievement. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
