I thought it should have been a penalty for the one late on tonight. Definite moved his arm towards the ball.

On topic, there is noone good at free kicks at the club apart from Bale.

It really is embarrassing now. He took 2 tonight and both hit the wall. The only 2 he ever scored from still hit the wall.

Even though I was more pisssed off by the second one he took with 5 mins to go, the 1st one was worse, cause he was taking it from range when we could have floated it in for somebody like Kane to get on the end of.

I also don't get how no commentator seems to pick up on it either, almost as if Kane has some good record with them.

Bale actually has to be on the pitch to take a free kick... Just saying for a friend.

Must be written into his contract that he takes them...... Only possible reason for him to still be on them.

Well they are the same people that think Vardy is the complete striker and never mention he is a goal hanger with one trick in his locker, you know, lob it over the top and see if he can run faster than the defender.

Are you describing Vardy or Son?

Say what you want about Vardy, I'd have him in our squad all day long.

Hard to know if no-one else gets a chance outside of the training pitch.

If Kane's stats really are that bad, there can't be much harm in letting someone else try their luck.

They are literally all better than Kane, the rest of the team. I don't care if some have never taken a free kick in their lives, they are still better than Kane.

Aside from Bale, Dier is actually decent at them, and I have no idea why Son doesn't have a go when the goal is in range. His shot accuracy this season is one of the highest of the top 25 goalscorers in the league.

its just a joke that he is even on them....

Wonder how many he has taken now? Must be 30 a season at least, probably going on for 200 free kicks now without scoring

His teammates must be afraid to tell him not to take one. If we are all seeing his failings at free kick taking then they and Jose must as well.

I wish someone in the media could highlight it, like Neville and Carragher, and by bringing attention to it, it might help to stop it. Unfortunately because of how good Kane is doing in other areas they won't.

To be fair Kane gets enough stick from everyone already for the backing in thing.....

He got stick for a bit after that one game of him doing it. That seems to have gone away now.
