A heartfelt letter to Harry Kane from his close friend Ryan Mason 📩

[The Players’ Tribune @PlayersTribune]

Harry Kane in 2018: “My dream wasn’t to play in the Premier League. My dream was to play in the Premier League for Spurs.

So I told [André Villas-Boas], quite honestly, “I don’t want to go [on leave].”

As the words were coming out of my mouth, I thought, Oh, wow — maybe that wasn’t.…

He just kind of looked at me, a bit confused.

And then I just came straight out with it. I said, “I’m gonna prove to you that I should be starting on this team. And you can tell me every Friday before the game that I don’t deserve that, and that I’m not going to play. And that’s fine. But I don’t want to go.”

And that was that. He let me stay on and train with the first team — and it really ended up being the turning point in my confidence. I had always felt like I had the ability, but I kind of had to stand up for myself. It was like I could see my childhood dream, and it was right there in front of me … but it was just out of reach. I was waiting for somebody to hand it to me. But life never hands it to you, does it?

You’ve gotta grab it.

I was on fire in training, but I still couldn’t get a game. Then the manager was let go in the winter and Tim Sherwood took charge — and he gave me my chance. The rest, as people might say, is history. I scored three goals in my first three starts, and that was an incredible feeling, especially the first time scoring at White Hart Lane. But honestly, all the things I went through before I scored Goal Number 1 … that’s what made me who I am….

For me, the rejection is the best thing that ever happened to me. When I was lacing my up boots for my first start in the North London derby back in 2015, I had a flashback to when I was 11, playing against Arsenal’s youth team. It was like déjà vu. Before every match, I always visualize scenarios in my head of exactly how I’ll score in the match. Left-foot curler into the bottom corner. Right-foot volley from the right corner of the box. I’ve always been that way. I get really detailed about it — I’ll picture my opponents and the cut of the grass and everything.

This time, I was picturing the defenders wearing the red Arsenal kit, and I got goosebumps.

We were in the tunnel, and I thought, “O.K. Took me 12 years. But we’ll see who was right and who was wrong.”

I scored two that day, and the winner in the 86th minute was something that I’d never even dream of visualizing before a match. It was a header — probably the best header I’ve ever scored — and that feeling when it hit the back of the net … I’ve never felt a rush like that in my whole career.

I remember walking round the pitch after the final whistle … and clapping to the fans … and it felt like, Well — I told you so.” https://t.co/AIJvVbtojF

[Adam Smithy @AdamJSmithy]

Harry Kane has scored 70 goals this season.

That’s more goals than Ronaldo has EVER scored in a single season and the greatest player of all time Messi has only ever surpassed that tally ONCE in his career.

Put some respect on his name 🔥 #Kane

[KinG £ @xKGx__]

For over a decade, Cristiano Ronaldo’s best-ever goalscoring season (69 goals) and Lionel Messi’s second-best (69 goals) looked untouchable.

Harry Kane has now surpassed them.

70 goals in a single season.

Think about that. Generations of elite strikers couldn’t break those numbers. Kane just did.

If the Ballon d’Or is about rewarding the best individual season, then Harry Kane has given everyone a compelling reason to vote for him. 🏆🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

City replaced Ederson with Donnarumma.
City replaced De Bruyne with Cherki.
City replaced Grealish with Semenyo.
City replaced Gundogan with Reijnders.
City replaced Alvarez with Marmoush.
City replaced Stones with Khusanov.
City replaced Phillips with Nico Gonzalez.
City replaced Ortega with Trafford.
City are replacing Ake with Guehi.

What is the outrage? They are just replacing players that have left or are on the brink of leaving.

Tottenham fans were right when they said Harry Kane is better than Lewandowski. I speak for all Bayern fans when I say you were totally right. This is the best striker of this generation
