Graeme Souness has topped Newcastle legend Alan Shearer moderately than former Tottenham hitman Harry Kane, as the best striker in England historical past.
The Liverpool legend was talking to Simon Jordan on the most recent episode of their podcast and picked the all time Premier League high aim scorer Shearer over all time England high aim scorer.
Harry Kane joined Bayern Munich in the course of the summer season, leaving Ange Postecoglou’s group. The 30-year-old, who has scored 26 targets in 23 video games, has already made an impression in Munich, along with his teammate Thomas Muller labelling him one of the best striker on this planet.
Nevertheless, he did go away behind the possibility to surpass Shearer’s all-time aim file—not less than briefly—after departing from Tottenham and the Premier League.
Shearer, who performed for Southampton, Blackburn Rovers and Newcastle United, scored an unimaginable 260 targets within the English Premier League. No different striker has even acquired nearer to the file set by Shearer.
Souness has settled the talk of Shearer vs Kane and he thinks Shearer is the person.
Talking on Simon & Souness, he mentioned:
“For me, you need somebody who has a little bit of the whole lot,” Souness mentioned.
“Shearer had a little bit of the whole lot.
“He might be strong, take the blows, he might bully centre-halves. He wasn’t the largest however he appeared to select the flight of the ball up quicker than the centre-backs he was taking part in in opposition to.
“He might run in behind, not once I had him at Newcastle, however he might. For me, he’s been one of the best England centre ahead and that’s together with Harry Kane.”
It will be laborious to disagree with Souness as Shearer has received a Premier League title in his profession and nonetheless stays the all time high aim scorer within the league’s historical past.
Although Kane has did not win any trophy in his profession but, there’s little doubt that he can be remembered as one of many biggest attackers in Premier League historical past.
