STEVE PERRYMAN: Harry Kane is a fantastic performer, but Jimmy Greaves will be overtaking a 'genius.'

Harry Kane may be Tottenham's top goalscorer on Sunday or sometime this month. Harry is a superb payer, a true trader, and a natural finisher. Jimmy Greaves, the man whose records were shattered, was a genius. I don't use the word lightly nor in this comparison: I think Jimmy is the closest thing we've seen to Lionel Messi. The finishing: Messi should have said that he was close to being Jim, as well as the panache. Maybe because he missed the biggest game of his life, the 1966 World Cup final, certain generations don't realise how much better he was than everyone else. And as such, it's as extraordinary as Harry's triumph in going beyond him.
