villa4europe Posted April 11, 2018 Share Posted April 11, 2018 £5,000 - £10,000 per goal, maybe a bonus of around £500,000 if he finishes top scorer Not pathetic at all just a sad reminder of modern football 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PompeyVillan Posted April 11, 2018 Share Posted April 11, 2018 Or the guy is convinced that he scored, because he did. And he wants to claim it because he's a striker and he's proud and competitive. I should imagine he enjoys seeing his name on the infographics that pop up on MOTD and Sky regarding 'most goals...' etc. When he retires I should imagine he'll have a chance of being near the top of the '...ever' graphic. Don't blame him, and I judge him to be an honest player. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AVFCDAN Posted April 12, 2018 Share Posted April 12, 2018 Honestly don't see the problem with it myself, he obviously wants to be the top scorer for the season and needs the goal to have any chance of overhauling Salah. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not one clip I have seen has him close to it He said online straight away that it brushed his shoulder. I believe him, even though the contact must be incredibly slight. However, I don’t think it should be his goal. If that hit a defenders’ shoulder, Eriksen would have the goal - it wouldn’t be an own goal. Therefore, Eriksen’s goal.

IF Kane touched, no matter how slight, then it's his goal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Player A has a shot on target, deflects off a defender and goes in = Player A's goal. Player A has a shot on target, deflects off Player B and goes in = Player B's goal.
