Journalist Paul Brown reckons that Harry Kane has been dropping too deep for Tottenham this season.
How has Kane performed so far?
It's been a sorry start to the campaign for the England striker, who appears to be suffering from a combination of a Euro's hangover and the fact his potential move to Manchester City was blocked.
Kane is yet to find the net in five Premier League games and has a shocking WhoScored rating of 6.24, which is the fourth worst in the Tottenham squad, behind only Bryan Gil, Ben Davies and Giovani Lo Celso, who've all barely featured.
He isn't finding the going as tough away from the league, though. Kane has scored six times in four games across the Europa Conference League and Carabao Cup, gaining some much-needed confidence against Mura on Thursday by netting a second-half hat-trick against the Slovenian minnows.
Kane will be hoping that treble will be a sign of things to come in the coming weeks for club and country, but Brown reckons that the striker's game is suffering from him wanting to come deep.
What did Brown say?
He told GIVEMESPORT: "He's too willing to drop back, get involved in the play, it's as if he gets frustrated without the ball and goes searching for it a bit too much and Spurs end up – as England do sometimes – with that huge area at the top of the pitch kind of vacated because Kane is too willing to drop back and play that number 10 role and feed people around him."

Why does Kane drop deep?
Kane chipped in with 17 assists in all competitions last season, 14 of which came in the league to help him win the Playmaker award.
However, Kane hasn't managed an assist since the final day victory at Leicester last term and has cut a frustrated figure for most of this season.
Kane is best when he's playing centrally and close to goal, which is where his three goals against Mura came from. But Spurs are short of a creative player in their ranks, so he's trying to do two jobs at once, but as Brown alluded to, that leaves a huge gap further up the pitch which Kane should be occupying.
He managed to score goals and create them playing similarly last season and claimed two personal awards by doing that, so it's hard to argue with what he's doing.
