ExiledAjax Posted September 29, 2019 Report Share Posted September 29, 2019 Lovely hat trick goal. Fantastic ball from Benrahma out to Canos, then in to Watkins who's free in the box. Brentford's three key players combining for a great goal given the conditions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fairness, my evaluation of Kane is mainly related to how he plays for England. He plays differently at club-level, and I do think he’s a star in Spurs set up. England he’s one-dimensional. You surprise me Dave. For England, playing in a front 3, he often drops off and sets moves up rather well I think. Something you can do if you have Sancho and Sterling making runs.

A player of his quality really could be the difference between making it to the promised land or not. Just scores again, 5th of the season in what seems a poor Brentford team. And as I posted this he just hit the post and then crossbar in the space of a couple of seconds! Was thinking this myself. With the through balls Palmer puts through I think he’d suit us. Barnsley playing such a high line though it’s made for him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Original OTIB Posted September 29, 2019 Report Share Posted September 29, 2019 To be honest, Benrahma is a big part of this performance. They got him for peanuts. I wonder what he's worth now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not saying it’s only because of them, but partly because of them. Innate ability over speed. The knack of being in the right place at the right time, something that is very hard to teach + can finish well with both feet and good in the air. Teddy Sheringham had similar talents.

He’s easily premier league quality now. Is he 'easily Premier League quality now'? Che Adams and Maupay who both got their Prem moves after smashing it in the Championship both seem to be struggling. I know you need to give them the entire season, but I'd be surprised if they hit more than 7/8 goals this season for Brighton/Saints respectively.

I would say Watkins is better than those two as he has a lot more dimensions to his game and has sheer pace. Put Watkins right hand side of Leicester front three for example and I think he’d be excellent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
