genome Conte out for a while due to surgery


Having his gallbladder out.

I mean I can understand him looking for a way out but that's a bit extreme.

Pretty straightforward, would be back working by the weekend if it was a desk job.

Have you seen how much Conte moves on the sideline? Best to give him a couple of weeks to fully recover!

Kane is on almost exact pace with Shearer at the moment. 200 PL goals in 304 games, Shearer did it in 306.

You can rib Spurs all you like, he's a legend.

He is well on his way to becoming a Premier League legend, even if he doesn't win anything.

David May has two Premier League titles, two FA Cups, and a Champions League. Is he more of a legend than Harry Kane?

Not knocking Kane at all, but this Shearer chase is very much a PL thing. Kane's 27th overall for the English top flight. 14 more goals and he goes level with Tony Cottee.

Shearer won one PL title, in no small part to owing to Jack Walker doing today's football model 20 years before anyone else.
He's known for his goals, not what he won. That's where Kane is going at the moment. I hope he wins something. Tbh I hope he joins United in the summer.

And it's Greaves he is chasing again of course, on 357. Which looks a long way off, but 315 would take him second all-time. Shearer's 283 well in range.

Also, yes Cottee. But 14 more goals also takes him past Denis Law, Wayne Rooney and Geoff Hurst.

Also worth bearing in mind that as far as Top flight football is concerned most of the Premier League era has had 4 fewer games played so over a 12 year career period thats 48 games fewer in which to get them. For someone with Kane"s record that equates to about 38 goals in total. That's just a rough guess , I've not done the maths so don't shoot me.

Shearer was a funny one. He'd already won a title so I think the lure of wearing Newcastle's iconic No9 and the chance of winning something with his boyhood club outweighed the almost guaranteed trophies that would come with signing for Man Utd. I doubt he regrets the choice too much.

Kane on the other hand may end up never winning anything but being a genuine one club man. I guess it depends what motivates you really. Different players will look at things differently.

I would think that being captain of your country would be something to look back on with greater pride than winning a few club team medals.

BTW on Spurs I was looking just now on some net spend figures in the transfer market from 2018 until and including last week as follows:-

Chelsea £730.24 million
Man Utd £610.8
Arsenal £561.96
Spurs £404.60
Man City £323.61
Liverpool £235.03

Some perspective on a number of things including the preconceived idea that Spurs/Levy don't spend much.
