Ex-Spurs Player Harry Kane

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

His performance levels will probably drop once greedy arse Musiala is back in the side. He plays in the same spaces Kane loves to drop into.

Neville asked everyone on the overlap who would you rather have in your team: Kane, Haaland or Mbappe. Solskjaer said Haaland, Neville too, Wright and Keane were leaning towards Kane. But Jill asked Scholes does he really think Kane is close to Haaland - WTF.

They are acting like Haaland plays for Palace. He’s playing in top 3 tram in the world for last 3-4 years. He’s top striker, but the only thing hr has over Kane is pace. Everything else is nonsense.

Different strengths completely as a number 9, and although Haaland is slowly improving other aspects of his game, it's pretty clear that Harry is a considerably better footballer and more well rounded.

Haaland can be useless when up against a good, disciplined team that doesn't play a high line.
 
I’m a big fan of Kane but it remains a fact that he has been in six finals in his career and has failed to score a single goal in any of them.
Same as haaland ... I know community shield and old club world cup but still

Erling Haaland has scored 0 goals in major cup finals for Manchester City as of May 2024.

Despite his prolific scoring record overall, Haaland has notably struggled to find the net in finals. Here's a breakdown of his performances in major finals:

While Haaland has been instrumental in getting City to these finals—scoring heavily in earlier knockout rounds—he has yet to break his duck in the final matches themselves.

I can break down his semifinal performances too, where he's had more success. Want that?
 
Honestly, nobody gives enough credit to Kane to how physically dominant he was during his early 20's and those "one season wonder" years that kept coming one after another. He had it all back then, and in overall physical play I'd even have given him the nod over Haaland, and I mean that sincerely. Kane used to bully defenders and make them look weak back around '16-'19.

Kane was the greatest and the most inspired and dominant player that I've ever seen in the Premier League (I'm 38 for clarification, so the old greats I never got to watch), and even following his injuries and when you couldn't escape the thought that maybe his best years were behind him, he just kept scoring goals like they were going out of style.

Haaland is a physical freak of nature but as a footballer he's barely fit to lace Kane's boots.

Scored a worldie at the weekend. He is genuinely still getting better with age. Bayern's attack of Kane, Luis Diaz, Olise and Musiala is quite possibly the best attack in Europle. Only Barcelona's can rival it. Also, 3 of those could very well have been playing for the same country - England.
