Why is that?

Haaland is a beast and will go down as a goal-scoring great no doubt. He'll never be as good a footballer as Kane though unless he improved massively in most departments.

I think Kane is overrated depsite his goal scoring record. .....Against the better teams his record isnt great (especially when compared to someone like Aguero for instance). He will score against the midtable teams but struggles against the better ones.

Why does everybody act like Haalands bad at dribbling or passing. Just because he doesn’t get much opportunity to do it doesn’t mean he can’t.

If kane was in our team he would be just as isolated as haaland is now up top. Peps style at city inherently screws over the forwards time on the ball.

Never said he couldn't do either. You're making things up.

And with Kane's ability to drop deep and get involved it's complete nonsense to say that he would be isolated.

Bit of a difference playing for our City team than Tottenham. Do you actually think Aguero would score in the same amount of big games if he played for Tottenham instead with players like Moura, Bergwijn, Lamela, Alli etc around him?

Any every striker on the planet scores most of their goals against lesser opposition. Not just Kane. Lewandowski made a career of it for years in Germany.

Completely agree, hence we were prepared to pay significant money for him even though Haalands release clause kicked in a year later.

He would be Peps dream player, could add numbers to the midfield, drop deep, link play, incredible passing range and with the ruthlessness in front of goal of a striker. His performance at the Etihad last year, incorporating all of the above listed skillsets was incredible. Along with Berbatov, many moons ago, probably the best I have seen from an opposition forward.

Exactly. There's only Benzema that can match his all round game. Both are superior footballers to Lewandowski. We've seen how good Kane can be with Son, Tottenham's only other world-class player in previous seasons. You would have to think his game would also be somewhat elevated further having the likes of De Bruyne, Silva and Foden around him.

If he goes to Germany to play for Bayern he'll finally start to be given the credit he deserves from all once he rips it up for them and starts to win things.

I think Aguero scores goals whereever he is. Kane needs other players....Aguero makes goals on his own at times.

Kanes work rate and pace isnt there

You also get the circus that follows the England captain.....How could Pep drop the Capt of England for instance

You can think it all you like, it doesn't make it true. Kane doesn't need other players at all. If he did then he certainly wouldn't be able to rely on his team-mates at Tottenham season after season. He's their goal-scorer and creator.

OK I know aguero scores goals where ever he goes and it's a tact that Kate scores very few goals against top 6 sides throughout his whole professional career. Agueros mins to goal ratio was far better.
Without looking I'm betting haalands is as well...he also tore up the German league
 
I’ll be livid if he signs for those cunts at the swamp. Surely after turning down about £120m from us Spurs won’t revert to type and bend over for their favourite club selling him for about £30m or something?
 
He's a very good footballer. Any other opinion is just weird. If he joins united I've always said he's a shithouse ****.
 
I think he will end up at Rags. Stars are aligning. Maybe Levy won't have that much say this time. If Fake Hair Italian gets savked, they will have to start new cycle again and time is running out of his hand. If he goes abroad well and good. Maybe short term stint at Madrid or Bayern but id he stays in England, you have to believe Raha who want a strikee will sign him and make a STATEMENT

Add to this his versatility at stamping on City players' feet one minute then helpfully advising the referee how to do his job.
