Kane plays in a domestic division that, a few clubs aside, is the equivalent of the top half of the championship.  It's still a hell of a lot of goals obviously.

Top half of the Championship, that's harsh, how any top half of the Championship clubs would have just beat Man City 0-2 at the Emptyad this week, or smashed Villarreal by four this week in the Champions League?

Bar a few Bundesliga clubs who’d hold their own in the PL, my description isn’t controversial really.  Watkins is miles off though at the moment.

He needs a goal to go in. He’s obviously not in a good place, hopefully he can find his way back and have a belting second half of the season.

It's sad to see him as he is now and I don't mean the moustache.

In his last season playing for a very poor spurs side he scored 30 league goals plus a few more in all comps
He would’ve been 30/31 years old

He’s absolute quality and for me still the best striker in the world

I’ve never seen him look so disheartened and out of form. He needs to get a goal pretty quickly otherwise he’ll be finding himself with 20 minutes here or there.

I don’t think Malen is his replacement, I think he should be utilised either with another striker or inside right. I also think it’ll be really hard to find a player that is close to as good as Watkins at his best. If we start Malen up front on his own too often, I think we’ll end up seeing a downturn in results.
