Question for ed25 if possible. Hello mate. I've seen you sing the praises of Harry Kane in the past and also seen you compliment Robbie Fowler quite a bit for his finishing. What's your opinion on the better of the 2? Mine is Fowler for 3 or more seasons was untouchable. I really think he should have partnered Shearer in euro 96 but Venables went with Sheringham who did well anyway but I do think Robbie was the better player. Kane seems to have more longevity but being biased I think it's down to Robbie being at his best at the start of the Premier league era when there was still a load of bad habits and diets around. These days players are machines so will last longer but on talent alone I'd take Robbie all day.

{Ed025's Note - i was always a big Robbie fan baz, most natural finisher i have ever seen in british football and a bit underrated if you ask me, totally different player to Harry who is very powerful and really good in the air, what i would call an old fashioned centre forward in the mould of Latchford or Shearer, Robbie was all about finess and could turn a game in an instant, the only down side for me is that he never really produced it in an England shirt which is a shame because we all know he had the ability to be one of the greats..

Ed 25 am still curious to know who your preferred choice would be on you tesm.

{Ed025's Note - in the present day it would be Kane Groot, ideally i would have them as my forward pair but i suppose thats a bit of a cop out, the fitness you need these days gives Harry the edge because for me power and pace is king in the game today mate..
