Footballers aren't always too willing to admit it, but many are secretly obsessed with the facts and figures of their careers.
Goalkeepers will be aware of how many goals they've let in and how many clean sheets they've kept. Defenders will be fixated on tackle success percentages and duels won.
For strikers like Tottenham's Harry Kane, it's the more straightforward currency of goals scored and how many of his shots can be expected to ripple the back of the net.
The records of goalscorers are the easiest to compare and Kane is fully aware of the exalted company he is now keeping after what has been a magnificent few years.
