Kane is a real contender now, especially how penalties in the VAR age are so prevalent.

Messi v Ronaldo was the talk. Who is Better?

Ronaldo winning that battle hands down at present but Harry Kane knocking at their door saying "Hold on Lads, room for one more"

Maybe corners will start to be a thing again. They became almost irrelevant with all the grappling in the box, almost like the opposite of what happened to the scrum in rugby.

I think the winner will probably need 8 or 9 goals this year to win it.

Penalties are key this tournament with VAR. I think they said earlier there's been 16 - more than the last WC already.

My Spurs mate at work keeps calling me a traitor to West Ham for backing a Spurs player to win the Golden Boot.

I keep pointing out to him that if Kane wins the Golden Boot, he won't be a Spurs player for much longer...
