    So we can deduce from this thread that he is a donkey that is the best striker in Europe.

    Sound.

    Think he's decent, but has been lucky in that everything seems to be going right for him this season. He'll probably come back down to earth soon.

    Not sure, he seems to be one of those strikers who make their own luck. He apparently has quite the work ethic and works on his finishing and positioning extensively. Combined with no-nonsense holdup play and you've got yourself quite a striker. He'll always be the type that relies on his teammates to create chances though, so if the service dries up he could suffer. But it looks like Tottenham have a good thing going right now.

    He's Talented, no doubt about it. We'd be raving about him if he was up here, but we have a tendency to write off young English players very quickly.

    Remember that season Charlie Adam had for Blackpool.

    Best midfielder in the world at that time too

    Harry Kane isn't Charlie Adam.

    Where does he rank in terms of out-and-out strikers?

    As good as a Benzema, Cavani, Higuain?

    In my opinion, he wouldn't be able to take any of their places in a starting 11. He's an excellent finisher and a poacher, but he's not in the top 5 in the world currently.

    Ignoring Ronaldo and Messi, I would say Suarez, Lewandowski, Aguero, Griezman, Dybala.

    Personally, I think Suarez is the best striker in the world. The in no particular order..

    Lewandowski
    Aubameyang
    Cavani
    Benzema
    Higuain
    Dybala
    Aguero

    Kane would probably come after them.

    Just asked a bunch of English lads in a group chat and they think Kane is easily ahead of the other strikers mentioned.

    Forgot about Aguero. No Ibra on either list.

    I would probably go Suarez, Lewandowski, Aguero, Benzema and not sure for the 5th.

    If Kane is in the tier below top 5, is he better than the likes of Costa, Ibra, Muller and the likes of Morata and Lukaku?

    Easily ahead of Suarez and Lewandowski? That's just silly haha

    I'd say he's better than Ibrahimovic due to Zlatan's age. But he won't reach Zlatan's peak level.

    He's better than Lukaku etc but Muller, no.

    Lewandowski and Suarez above the rest. I'm with the majority when saying that Kane's probably top 10 but maybe not quite up there yet. Better than Lukaku, Higuain and even Benzema in my opinion, tho I don't rate Higuain.

    Kane's still behind Aguero and Muller for me, think Muller's a bit underrated in terms of his finishing.
