What Harry Kane needs to do to break Alan Shearer record as pundits disagree on Tottenham star

Harry Kane continues to break records for Tottenham Hotspur, but there remains a general disagreement as to whether he will be the holder of the greatest achievement for Premier League strikers when he eventually retires.

As is normal when he scores goals, which is most of the time, the discourse around Kane is always positive, with nothing bad to say about the 29-year-old. There is always a two-sided argument as to if he could possibly overtake Alan Shearer and become the league's greatest marksman though.

His winner against Wolves was his 185th league goal, which broke another record in its own right, as Kane surpassed Sergio Aguero to become the player with the most league goals for one club. At the same time he scored his own personal 250th goal for Spurs and also, in fitting style, bagged the 1,000th home goal in Tottenham's league history.
