I believe it was 23 in 13 - now 24 in 14. If they keep up this rate of 1.71 goals per game, we're looking at 83-111 goals (depending on cup runs, we have 35-51 games remaining).KBS, race to 70
What we on now, 22 in 13 I think, at this rate it will take around 44 matches to reach the landmark
Most of that has been achieved without Bale on the pitch, so the trio is on track for 70+ goals regardless of his form / output. I think it's fair to assume his contribution will increase though, which would help to compensate for any injuries or dips in form / droughts for Kane and Son.
If their output drops by 30% for the remaining games, that's still 72-101 goals, so it would take a considerable dip in form and/or significant misfortune with injuries to stop them.
EDIT: 24 in 14 is based on the tallies in the 'Tottenham Hotspur Goals & Assists 2020/2021' thread.

Zero shots on goal 1st half. That was anti-climactic, after all that hype of KBS.

True but moments like Bale being a whisker away from turning in a Kane cross aren’t revealed by stats like that.

Only a glimpse, but the move for Sons chance started with a beautiful pass from Bale to get Kane in space, he turned and found Ndombele on the edge of the area and he did well to put it on a plate for Son. If we can get these guys combining like this throughout a match as opposed to just in moments then we’ll have the attack we’re all fantasising about.

We just need to put Lo Celso and N'dombele behind that front three and we'll tear teams apart.

I thought Bale offered more today than Lucas normally does.

I agree. Mouras work rate causes panic and space for others even of qhat he's trying doesnt always come off.
But Bale will be first choice once he's fit.

Son was very poor today if Dele Alli played that poorly we would have plenty of post's on his thread calling him out.

Love seeing Bale occupy the centre forward position at times when Kane drops in. Almost got a goal from Kanes cross because of the run he made. They will be magic together but it will take some time for them all to get the chemistry as a 3. Individually they're all match winners though and if 1 or 2 have an off game the 3rd could still win a game. It's unlikely all 3 would have an off game.

Except Son is our top scorer and scored only goal against Burnley to win that game... ?

Was saying in the Summer you can have Ronaldo and Messi in your front 3 but if your midfield doesnt give them the ball then they may as well not be there. It was too slow, sideways, backwards bollox today. Again.

Yeah that's fair, I'm just pointing out why people have ignored it.
