The “Hurricane” Harry Kane — season 2016/17 moments

Harry made a huge progress for the last couple of years. In 2011 he was on loan in Leyton Orient, and in the last season, he was the best goal scorer in EPL.

There are players in Tottenham, who can deliver a ball to Harry from different angles, we have to say. Like Eriksen or Alli. But, the thing which makes Harry more than his striking qualities, is his positioning. You can be fast, you can be skillful with the ball, but you can also stay off the line all of the time. The trick is, that you have to be sensitive, you have to move on the side waiting for the ball and put pressure on the defending line. For example, look at Harry's national performance vs Turkey. Quite simple at first look, but let's mention, how easy it was for Harry to stay on side, to be the first one on ball and near the keeper, and to finish this combination in one touch.

In the previous season, Harry scored 29 goals, 5 from penalties. In the current campaign he has already scored 24 goals, so he has all chances to beat his previous marker. Also, he would have a lot of time to show his love to English national team, which will play on the annual World Cup in Russia. So, let’s continue to follow and enjoy the game of this talented and hard-working striker.
