when he faces true quality he hibernates.
Watched the game? Kane missed a free header and was invisible otherwise when he came on, for a reason. There was nothing going through the middle for 90 minutes, no service besides a couple of half-decent crosses and corners. Thought DCL did well keeping possession off the long balls, had a good flick on that opened it up for Rashford, and rarely gave anything away cheaply. A pretty professional performance in a win, not bad at all.

Definitely lacks the ability to take defenders on 1-on-1 going forward though, as we saw a few times from Rashford, and never looks like finishing from outside the box. But that’s who he is, isn’t it.

buddy ur part of a cult. he has been scoring goals against bums for fun but there is no shame in admitting he does not belong to elite level.
 


A pen, after being hauled down by a donkey .......tell me about his 2nd half performance plus his team got beat v a makeshift England team.........

Thought he was good throughout.

DCL to be fair looked a bit tired, and was asked to play as a target man again by Southgate - we know this isn't his strength so it was an understated performance. He's young, he'll have these.

Lakaku with a great midfield still on the losing side .....
Tbh England were fortunate in the first half but Belgium poor in the 2nd half DCL led the line very well in both halves - plus would have scored Kane's miss....
Needs a rest in midweek I agree.,..

Yep. Horses for courses. If one striker has all of that you are talking telephone numbers.
Many top strikers down the years never took on defenders in certain ways like 1 on 1s. Marco van basten springs to mind.
But feed them in the box with good delivery. Goal.
