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.
Absolutely agree with you 100%. And the Bundesliga is strong - some enormous clubs in there. Watching Leipzig last night and they were superb. |

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.
Presumambly you think Haaland should have stayed at Molde then |

Indeed. Or Danny Collins or Michael Owen should have stayed at Mold. |

I perhaps would if the cases were in any way comparable, but they are not are they? It's just my personal opinion that he would be better served by staying in the Premier league with Spurs so I am not sure why that is seemingly so controversial but each to their own. |

He stays at spurs for what? Surely you want players to be ambitious. He’s moved to a league that, in truth is very similar to the premier league (let’s not pretend the premier league is super competitive at the top) but to a club that will win things. Harry Kane is better than simply holding a record number of goals in a league… |

It could prolong his club and international career too:
- fewer league matches
- lower intensity
- most league and cup matches will be won after 60 mins so he can be substituted
- More opportunities for rotation
- New challenge
- Reinheitsgebot
- cleaner air
Hope Kane and his family can embrace the change and make the most of it. I can’t wait to see him in his Oktoberfest lederhosen - he’ll be leathered.
Give it 2 months and the benefits of the unique Bayern training techniques... He'll link up with his England team mates looking like a white Ronnie Coleman. |

Lot of money to pay for a player who would have been free at the end of the season, which says how highly he is valued.
At elite level there’s no such thing as a free transfer. Bayern would have paid the same money if he was out of contract now. It would have just all gone to Kane through signing on fee and inflated wages and not to Spurs. |

Which is ridiculous. When Juventus signed Aaron Ramsey for free, it should have been a case of just that - “we’re signing you because you’re a good player and you’re free. You should be delighted to be signing for Juve” - instead, what didn’t Juve do? They paid a bang average player £400K per week! There is no way on earth they’d have paid £50m-or-so if he was still under contract to Arsenal. Madness. But well done to his agent, he pulled a master stroke there. |

I know Real Madrid were interested in Kane and I would of thought he may of ended up there. Bayern are a big club but Real in terms of history and prestige are bigger. I note Mbappe wants to end up there as well and would of been frightening to see a front two of Kane and Mbappe playing in the famous white shirt of Real. On a side note I still love Wayne Rooney and probably my favourite English striker of recent times. At his peak was tremendous and better than Kane I feel. Would have him just behind the likes of the original Brazilian Ronaldo.I note Alex Ferguson said something similar when he bought him as well. Best young player he has seen in 50 years. |
