anThis card is unbelievable. He will finish anything from inside the box. His mid-range shots are excelent as well as his long shots. TOTS Kane plays amazing passes and will beat most defenders in the air. His height is great, so is his heading accuracy. Don''t even get me started on his strength, he will bully any defender, except probably top icons. Get this card

Got this man out of the second guaranteed EPL player pack, and having used his second POTM card, I knew I was in for a treat. Right off the bat you'll notice this card's insane movement. Kane will get himself where he needs to be to have the best possible chance of scoring. Physically, he is an animal. He will outpace and out-strength defenders for fun. He will win a lot of headers. He will last all game. In the finals of the DKT, he still had over 80% of his stamina remaining in the 120th minute. Once you pass to him, you'll notice his first touch. His ball control is extremely clean, especially for a big man such as himself. He has no problems with settling low drivens, lobs, any type of pass you throw at him. He will be able to control the ball quickly and efficiently. As a natural target man striker, his link up play and overall passing game is fantastic for a striker. For this I believe he works better with wingers besides him capable of making darting runs through the defense once he has his back to goal. If you need to take on a defender or two he is more than capable of dribbling. I would recommend to shy away from sprint dribbling unless you have a lot of space. However, his dribbling while at a jogging pace is close and precise, and he can cut as well as any winger can. This all leads up to his shooting. Kane has by far, the best shot I have used this year. He's boasting most shooting stats in the high 90's, except for volleys which clock in at 82. Kane is one of those players who can turn half-chances into goals with ease. Whether you are taking a low driven shot (from ANY angle), a finesse shot, a standard power shot, header, etc. He will finish everything you give him. With 97 composure he makes almost no mistakes when 1v1 with the keeper. All you need to do to use this card is allow him to get himself into position near or in the box, pass to him, and press shoot. He is so fun to use and while he is pretty expensive, I would definitely say he is worth the coins if you need a goal scorer for your squad.

When I see this player, I'm thinking the likes of lukaku, ibrahimovic and some others. The TOTY version is sooooo expensive at 750k but this TOTS card comes waaaay cheaper at 450k. if you need to spread your coins out to your whole team, get this instead of toty kane.

Massive player! reminds me of aguero but stronger, more clinical and more skillful! that's surprising! if you don't mind a bit of slower pace, he's the best striker you can get at less than 500k!

I'm going to start by saying I've never written a review, but after packing Kane TOTS in the 2nd Prem TOTS SBC and trying him for 20 games, I felt compelled to. This card is INCREDIBLE!

Playing him as a solo striker in the 4-2-3-1, he was an imposing target man that rarely lost aerial battles, and this worked great for knocking the ball down to pacey CAM's that dart past him. He also didn't struggle outpacing defenders with magical through balls from De Bruyne. After using Wilson's 84 IF, I didn't feel like Kane was a downgrade pace-wise when I'd applied a CATALYST card (I didn't need a hunter as Kane's shooting is already pretty much maxed out).

Kane's ball control is second only to the god tier players (Messi IF, Ronaldinho, etc.), and his first touch took me past defenders in to good shooting positions almost every single time. Close control dribbling is insane, he can easily work his way through 3 defenders. Once you have that space, you just have to shoot, it doesn't matter where from! I've scored 30 yard screamers, corner of the box finesse shots to the top corner (88 curve and 94 long shots!)....and don't even get me started on the broken driven low shots, he really doesn't miss when you have the space to get a shot off.

Now here comes the negative part...in the formation I used, with 3 CAM's that like to get forward to support, I sometimes found Kane getting lost due to him tracking back thanks to his H/H work rate, meaning he often wasn't in position to receive passes in goal scoring positions. Here comes the part when I described him as an even better CAM. In the 4-2-3-1, switching Kane to the centre CAM, with De Bruyne (H/H) and Zaha (H/M) either side of him and Wilson up front (H/M), I didn't find that Kane was as overwhelmed by defenders grouping around him as the spacing of the players around him meant that there were more gaps to exploit. Given his passing stats with the CATALYST card, it helped to release Zaha and Wilson more often behind defenders, but also when the game was spread using the pace of the other attackers that use the "tries to beat defensive line" trait, this left Kane in acres of space on the edge of the box to score an insane amount of goals (rebounds and screamers).

My advice, Kane as a solo striker will condense the spacing of the game, making it frustrating, so he's better in a 2 striker set up, however, after playing him as a CAM, I will not be changing him back!

Chemistry Style: Hunter

I have used TOTY Kane at least 5 times in FUT Draft, and this card feels the exact same. No difference at all! Once he gets going he is extremely fast and is strong enough to not get pushed off the ball by the likes of Bailly, Chiellini, IF Koulibaly, sometimes even Ferdinand. Also, once you give him the ball, and if he is surrounded by lots of defenders. his dribbling can be very technical, and reliable to switch direction fast, and contain the ball under control. Last but not least, his SHOOTING! His shooting is his best stat, and to put it simply, give him space for a longshot is UNFAIR. Literally, I felt bad, as I wasn't playing my best FIFA, but I kept on scoring longshots left and right. Also, inside the box, low-driven is not even a question: automatic goal! Extremely clinical.

For my stats: I packed him in SBC shortly after I started WL, but ALL games are from the Weekend League
