At the end of the season who has scored more-him or Haaland?

In the league? Will be interesting to see. Lewandowski averaged almost a goal a game when he was there (scoring more than a goal a game in a few seasons).
We'll have to compare the goals/game ratio as we play more games than the Bundesliga. Overall, Man City are likely to be stronger in the Champions League so Haaland ought to score a good few more altogether.
Kane is really such a good footballer - like Rooney in his prime, one of the best passers of the ball in the country as well as a goalscorer. Haaland much more focused on just scoring goals and not doing much else.

Levy wouldn’t let him go to a Prem rival in any scenario, that leaves the top one or two clubs in two or three leagues. Real couldn’t and Barca could t afford him, PSG wanted him but he didn’t want them. That left Bayern and Bayern only in truth. He never should have signed his extension around the time city were sniffing, that wasted two years in reality.

Anyone who thinks Kane is guaranteed silverware at Bayern this season should have watched their supercup tonight - RB Leipzig are brilliant. They should contend in the bundesliga AND in Europe. Real dark horses.

As good as Leipzig were Kane would have buried a few of the chances Bayern spurned before his introduction.

I can't understand him going there. If he wins one or two medals so what? The German league is not a patch on the PL and lags behind the Spanish and French leagues.
I can't understand immensely wealthy footballers giving up the club they love to go to a club they have absolutely no affiliation to, in the pursuit of second rate medals.
If I were in that exalted position I would have stayed with Spurs (themselves a wonderful football club) till my career was over and become their all time greatest player, and accept that even some of the greatest players don't have a hat full of medals but have memories and respect that medals can't buy.
The money is amazing at Bayern but he already has more money than his family could ever need. He will always be a legend at Spurs but a one club man would have a special ring to it in the modern era.

1. The Bundesliga is stronger than Ligue 1. Dortmund and RB Leipzig are far better teams than Marseille, Lens, Lyon etc. 2. If Kane was primarily motivated by salary he would have moved to PSG or pushed through a move somewhere else. 3. You make Spurs sound like some sort of romantic, mom-and-pop, dewy eyed, jumpers for goalposts, family club. Instead, they’re gold leaf encrusted wagyu, Margaux mixed with cola, velour LV tracksuits with built in satin gusset. A horrible club, with whiny, entitled fans, an absolute cünt of a Chairman and a tax avoiding criminal of an owner. Grimsby Town they are not - well, not since Fenty left. 4. Kane would never have been remembered as Spurs’ greatest player (Greaves, Blanchflower). In the next few years, Spurs won’t win the League or a European trophy. 5. If you believe in UEFA coefficients, he’s just moved from the 22nd best side in Europe to the 2nd best in Europe/the World. 6. This isn’t a great Bayern side but, if they avoid City and Neuer returns to his best after his accident, they do have a chance of winning the Champions League. Spurs aren’t even playing in Europe.

All very good but as I say if it was me I wouldn't have left Tottenham and the Premier league for the German league and a couple of big games a year. I've no affection for Spurs myself but they are his club and just think it would have been nice to play his entire career there.

People seem to forget the picture of him wearing an Arsenal kit in his youth. He could have gone to Saudi no doubt, but he hasn't.
