Suarez did it all the time. Used to drive me mad. He never jumped for the ball. At best he’d nudge the opposition defender under it and then bring it down when the player missed it, but at worst he’d jump comically early and then back into the defender jumping properly to try and win a foul or see him go over the ball. It is dangerous and it’s not right that Kane does it but he’s not the only one doing it, most forwards who can’t compete in the air are contesting for high balls in dangerous and illegal methods. What’s odd about Kane is he probably could win his fair share of flick ons if he tried to compete.

Fair enough, have to admit I simply dont remember it, but from your description it's still different to what Kane is doing. I have no love nor hate of Harry Kane and am not trying to turn my point into a witchhunt, but what is very simple is at the moment he continues to try this to cheat & while that is bad enough he is consciously endangering players to win a free/pen. It is far more dangerous than a dive & thus morally reprehensible.

he needs to stop as does anyone else doing it at the moment. There will be a broken neck or other serious injury before long.
 



No excuses, we have to put these to the sword in the cup and at home in the league they’re an absolute shambles.

I don't like kneejerk calls, as after that Arsenal game you thought wow, it looks like a Mourinho team. Went top I believe. But since then, I'd love to see their form. They were poor against Fulham and tonight woeful. Really woeful. Even the disallowed goal is badly defended, people not making any effort to block crosses.

This will sound harsh, but I hope Kane has done his ankle badly. He has kept them affloat at times and without him they are a shell of a team. There must be some residual weakness in the ankle, and given the previous injuries if he's done it again it might be 3 months again out. It will also get some traction in the national press too, that Thiago did him, so wil highlight some of the hypocrisy re Pickford/VVD.

They look a completely different team to the one that played Arsenal that day. Don't now whats happened at all, but I tell you what, they could end up 10th or lower if they are not careful.
