The English Striker is another player whose form has taken a hit in October. Harry Kane failed to score in the Premier League in October, and as a result, dropped down from 3rd to 7th among the contenders at the start of November.
After scoring a brace against Huddersfield on 29th September, Kane was unable to find the net against Cardiff at the start of October. After the International break, the English Striker drew a blank against West Ham in a narrow 1-0 win and this Monday, he failed to score against Manchester City in a 0-1 defeat.

As such, Kane has now scored 5 goals in 10 matches this season in the Premier League. He has attempted 29 shots, with 13 of them on target. In October, he registered 9 shots with just 2 of them on target. However, Kane did score in the Champions League in October against PSV and now has 7 goals from 13 games in all competitions.
Harry Kane will be hoping to get back to scoring form soon, however, he is still firmly in contention for the Premier League Golden Boot this season, with ample time to recover and gain momentum.

Inspired by Diego Maradona, Deepungsu played as an attacking midfielder for his local club at subdivision level in his initial years and scored an important goal or two. However, his all-time favorite footballer is Lionel Messi, and evidently, he feels Argentina's glory in 2022 is his favorite FIFA World Cup moment for fulfilling his long-standing dream. He is also an ardent East Bengal fan.
Deepungsu has been a Manchester United supporter since the year 2000. Unsurprisingly, his favorite manager is Sir Alex Ferguson and the Scotsman helped him get through some of the toughest days of his life. Like the fiery Scot, Deepungsu also leaves no stone unturned when it comes to accuracy in articles and only relies on credible sources.
Despite believing in Kylian Mbappe and Erling Haaland to create an iconic rivalry, Deepungsu reckons no one can match the longevity of Messi and Ronaldo. He spends his leisure time writing about life on his blog, reading books, and playing the guitar.
