Excellent piece. I'm extremely fortunate in having watched the wonderful Jimmy Greaves in his prime and now the brilliant Harry Kane. The former was simply a superb goal-scoring machine whereas Kane's vision and link-up play make him, to my mind, an altogether more complete player. He's also a thoroughly decent man who has avoided the bright lights, night clubs and other distractions that have dimmed the talent of so many of his peers.
Thank you, Clive. Would love to have seen Jimmy Greaves play. Have read his autobiography, which is fascinating. Different times, of course. Agree on Kane as well, he's such a professional and much more than a goalscorer. Let's hope he can add a trophy or two at Spurs!
