I don't suppose there is a heat map showing his positioning pre and post injury is there? I'd love to see one of where he has been playing this season as opposed to when he was at his goalscoring best.
Same thing happened to Fernando Torres after he played Euros, Confederations Cup and World Cup in consecutive summers, all while leading the line for Liverpool in Prem, CL etc. Eventually he just couldn't do it any more, his body caved in and he was never the same player again. This is happening to Kane right now. Come 60 minutes gone in games he can barely get around the pitch. We need to take action or his career is going to be destroyed. Why on fucking earth he hasn't been pulled out of these England games is absolutely beyond me.
Kane has been either the top or 2nd top scorer in the league for past 4 seasons, 3 of which we've finished in the top 3. Teams have been sitting back against us for years and it's not like defenders suddenly thought "shit, this Kane's quite good...maybe we should mark him better" after his injury.Stuart Pearce said on The Debate last night that you have to take into account that when people come up against Spurs now that most teams will have numbers in defence and make it as difficult as possible because of our rise over the last few years. That means less time and space for Kane who is also more respected by defenders because of all the goals he's scored.
Won't will he when he's spending half his time in midfield.6 shots per game prior to injury now down to 2.5.......
Would be interesting to see how his stats from the end of last season compare to the start of this season. With Lucus up top with him and Alli/Eriksen playing deeper it seems like he's been getting a lot less service than usual.Won't will he when he's spending half his time in midfield.

I'm guessing you didn't register6 shots per game prior to injury now down to 2.5.......
He should have a massive heat map, having been on fire for so long. Huge.We've known for years that he's gonna have a bit of a rough patch. He never gets a pre-season due to tournaments (under 21 then euros then world cups etc etc) Plus he's been on fire for so long that it was inevitable!
It is ridiculous that he hasn't been pulled out of the game. Ferguson would not have stood for it, time for Poch to do the same.Same thing happened to Fernando Torres after he played Euros, Confederations Cup and World Cup in consecutive summers, all while leading the line for Liverpool in Prem, CL etc. Eventually he just couldn't do it any more, his body caved in and he was never the same player again.
