Benzema’s 21/22 CL KO run of solo’ing PSG, City, Chelsea, and Pool with 10 goals in 7 games > Kane’s entire big game resume.

We’re talking about football impact. Of course, Kane is a much better person than Benzema. But that’s not the discussion.

On the other hand, Kane never had entire seasons off.

Kane consistently got amazing numbers with an average team.

Benzema finished a league campaign with 5 league goals as Real Madrid's main striker which is absolutely embarrassing.

Real Madrid fans who watched him week in week out, wanted Benzema out for years. If you go back to his contract renewal posts back in 2018, you'll find Madrid fans absolutely furious in the comments.

Those 2 years 2021 and 2022 completely changed his reputation and history was rewritten. He was a poor, patchy finisher for half of his career. He always had very good technical ability since Lyon but his finishing has never been reliable.

When Benzema didn't turn up in big games, Madrid still won because of Ronaldo, Bale, Ramos, Modric, Kroos, etc so nobody noticed anything. Look at his CL knockout numbers. He has played a HUGE amount of games and his goal ratio is rather average. He has actually been invisible in countless big games.

History was rewriten because he was freaking incredible, that's how it works.

I don't get temps logic at times, to move an argument.

It's like Xavi and Iniesta had a dream situation, yea because they made it a dream for club and country

Always trying to water down or take away players biggest accomplishment to make a point.

He’s a troll. Lil buddy out there tagging me on posts saying Barca will cook next season with Luis Diaz in the lineup. Prolly was thinking what a “genius” troll that was.

Mid double digit IQ, ya gotta feel sorry for him :lol:

Any truth in the rumours that Barcelona are looking to sign him in the summer to replace Leandowski? Would Barca fans take him?

He seems really happy at Bayern to me. But I suppose Barcelona are one of the very few clubs it's almost impossible to say no to if theres a chance of signing.

Yeah , since there aren't any other decent 33-34 year olds on the market who we could pay a big transfer fee and big salary

Don't think age really comes into it with
Kane as he has aged like fine wine. He can't run about as much as he did 3 or 4 years ago but everything else in his game is better than ever.

Will he be an upgrade over Lewa?
In every aspect other than scoring, he should be. And we will see, if Lewa is still scoring that makes him worthwhile.

I think they are very different number 9's, albeit they both obviously score tons of goals. Lewandowski is far more athletic and quicker off the mark. Kane's hold up play and ability to link play is on a different level to just about every other 9 I can think of.
