How Do You Solve A Problem Like Harry Kane?

So how do we solve this problem of rotating Harry Kane?

Relevant points:-

Spurs, like most clubs at this time, play more than one kind of tactical system but all involve only one centre forward.

The main one we've got happens to be one of  Europe's best.

Despite what the player himself says he obviously chases records which is allied to an insatiable appetite for goal scoring.

He's the clubs highest paid player and quite rightly so although some fans  believe his contract says that if he wants to play, he plays. This suggestion really came to the fore during the FA Cup tie at Tranmere where he was brought on as a sub with 15 minutes remaining when we were already 6 nil up.

The alternatives when Kane is unavailable or consents to being rested:-

Given the above this makes recruitment of some genuine competition very difficult. That's without taking into account the clubs wage structure and doubts over how much money is available for new signings.

With hindsight it was a bullet dodged but Pochettino himself said when he discussed the idea of joining the club with Alvaro Morata he said 'why do you need me, you have Harry Kane?'

This means that Spurs are either left with playing one other high quality player (Son) or decent standard player (Lucas) out of position because currently the other alternative centre forwards are Llorente (too old, too slow, lacks confidence and needs constant game time), Jansen (on the scrapheap, currently playing for the under 23's, a £17m gamble thats backfired) or Kaziah Sterling (completely untried at senior level)

With regard to Kane's current injury its the ankle area yet again, so I'm guessing there's some sort of weakness there. More reason for someone to convince him he needs to rest sometime?

International Commitments

Just to put the cherry on the icing on the cake he's the England captain and will be selected for every squad and will play in just about every game. Understandably, he's proud to play for and captain his country, he appears to have a great relationship with the Manager and again I'd say he's after the England goal scoring record.

Conclusion

So basically I think I've found a long winded way of saying that while he's still at Spurs the situation isn't going to change much. Llorente & Jansen will move on and I guess we'll bring in another 31-32 year old (Spurs linked in the media today with 31 year old Nikola Kalinic from At. Madrid who ironically is being moved on due to the arrival of Morata)  who's willing to bide their time and play when needed and / or we'll take a relatively small gamble on someone from a 'lesser' league. Or of course Kaziah Sterling may get his chance and grab it with both hands.
