I love Kane, but Ange ball demands a high pressing fast and efficient striker. Kane would have struggled to press high like Son did in this game. If you look at today's game Son run in a way that cut off the left side of the field forcing GK to only pass to the right, and then everyone else presses the right leading to the turnovers and the 2 goals. It is no coincidence that Son leads the league in sprinting distances. Look at Burnley game where Son had 52 presses leading to 12 turnovers, one of them resulting in Madder's goal just like the second goal today. Kane is a high volume striker, relatively slow. Son is a better fit for Ange ball
