Pundit tells Harry Kane to learn from former Arsenal striker Olivier Giroud...I think Harry will be okay, to be honest ๐
The Spurs star has won three Premier League Golden Boot awards in his career, and also won the World Cup Golden Boot in 2018. At international level, Kane has 51 goals in just 78 caps (Transfermarkt) and is just two goals shy of Wayne Rooney’s record as England’s all-time top scorer.
Suffice to say, Harry Kane has no problem finding the back of the net. Even just this season, Kane has bagged 13 goals in the first half of the campaign (Transfermarkt) and looks on track for one of his most prolific seasons to date.
As Kane has evolved as a player, he has developed into quite the playmaker, adding assists to his game as well as goals. His tendency to drop deep and use his range of passing to bring others into the game has proven to be divisive among fans and pundits, though, with many claiming he should stay in the box like a traditional striker.
Danny Murphy certainly feels that way, and claims Kane should look at players like former Arsenal striker Olivier Giroud for how to approach the game.
He said: “Haaland is a great example of a centre-forward, Giroud actually is a better example (for Kane). Giroud hasn’t got Kane’s ability to come in deep, so he doesn’t even bother. But when France are dominating the ball, he stays up there and occupies the centre-halves.”
On how Kane should adapt his game, Murphy added: “Kane gets drawn in to come back and get some touches and show that he’s a good player, because he can do it. But sometimes, he has to play the selfless role and stay higher and not come back deep.”
