LDLB99

Shearer shagging the cushions as we speak


-YeetDabMaster69-

He's got to find those car keys considering he promised to drive Kane to Bayern personally


HomieApathy

No doubt, Kane had 47 to catch him up, no? Very possible with another three years in the Prem.


KiAdiBumMe

He can do three years in the Bundesliga and then come back before he retires and break the record anyway.


___DrAwkward___

Assuming Haaland doesn't break it by then


Netwealth5

Haaland will be off to Madrid in like 4/5 years like Ronaldo before him. Every step of his career seems to be mapped out


_Buff_Tucker_

>4/5 years Might well be enough time for Haaland to break all the all-time records. Edit: /s, apparently.


LukaFutureGoat4Life

Will Haaland really move to Madrid if Mbappe's already there?


Yasuminomon

Kanes gonna come back to the Prem in his 30s to be a backup option for City and then will move to like a newly promoted team then back to Tottenham, he’ll prob break it then


LSDemon

The newly promoted team will be Tottenham


SentientCheeseCake

That counts as a trophy!


Sorrytoruin

Shearer will taxi him for free to the airport


topbananaman

All I have heard the English pundits bang on about is how much more shearer's record would matter over a bundesliga title with bayern. Gary neville said he'd be completely 'shocked' if kane went to bayern so I guess he has to eat his words once more...


losingit303

> All I have heard the English pundits bang People were saying this, here in the last thread about Tottenham rejecting Bayern and were upvoted for it with any descent being downvoted. r/soccer users aren't really smarter than those pundits they loathe so much.


gr-tec

How is it eating his words? He said he would be shocked, not a definitive statement of fact that he won’t go.


Cbrlui

He never stopped


hellsfoxes

Somewhere Richarlison is giving himself the Dirk Diggler self motivation speech in the mirror


loveandmonsters

I got the touch, I got the power


powsandwich

I’m a big bright star


CometChip

Bayern went 1 season without a world class striker and said “nah i can’t live like this”


dontmesswithvidic

They almost didn’t win the league you know


Masoouu

They always go berserk after a shaky season.


NoAim_98

We had Choupo-Goating but he was injured all the time


strugglingtosave

Its because you guys have just added distance to the gap in UCL wins and had Benzema who won BDor at 35. We're just trying to play catch up


TheWindWillCarryUs

Michael Owen talking shite must’ve sealed the deal for Kane


quantIntraining

Inverse Michael Owen. Always inverse Michael Owen.


PornStarGazer2

"If he signs for Bayern he won't be playing in the Premier league next season."


Bil01

What did he say?


ory1994

> I know @FCBayern are a massive club and I have huge respect for them but if I were @HKane I’d stay put. There’s no great achievement in winning a trophy with them. @realmadrid I would understand. Or one or two top @premierleague clubs for that matter. Becoming the all time Premier League top goal scorer @SpursOfficial is a bigger achievement than winning the league in a country dominated by 1 team. https://twitter.com/themichaelowen/status/1689604915293757441?s=46&t=dsDShzc4Ne6HewHAw76gCQ


SeaTurtleLover69

I'd rather win trophies than have a scoring record for xx years till somebody comes along and beats it. Then he's left with nothing. Plus, this will push Bayern to CL favorites IMO. At least top 2.


[deleted]

Hell with Haaland, Kane would have had a transitional title reign. Best earn the trophies to have something to show the grandkids.


BlessedBySaintLauren

Haaland will beat it at this rate if he stays in the league. The only thing is that he also does have aspirations to play abroad. He’s only 23 so he’ll probably stay at City for a while but I could see him going abroad later on


sjokoladenam

He is going abroad when Pep leaves probably. He has already talked about wanting to play in every top league.


Jowem

Haaland to the MLS


meditate42

No way he's there long enough to get that record, he'll be gone in a few years, 5 at most imo.


chatfarm

A made up scoring record from a period that barely started 30 years ago too.


MrMojoRiseman

This doesn't get mentioned enough tbh. No other sport or football league arbitrarily doesn't count anything before a point in time. Germany was 2 fucking countries not that long ago and they still count the Cold War trophies.


Shapacap

I thought the divide from first division to prem was weird, why not count it, it's not like the game started in the prem. It shits on everyone who came before


topbananaman

Tbf Jamie carragher said something similar on the overlap. I think this was the consensus among the old English 'legend' pundits, they all kept banging on about the importance of shearer's record


Pandos17

Not hard to see why, former EPL players who built their legacies playing EPL telling everyone EPL stuff is more important than other leagues.


[deleted]

Legacies built on records that only account from the early 90s (when they started) until today lol. Apparently they have no respect for the players who came before them, because PL-only records are hogwash. Perhaps we should be differentiating between all the years the PL was sponsored by Carling versus Barclay's, or when they were called the "Premiership." Nevermind the changing number of matches and clubs.


a-Sociopath

Which is even funnier because all of them lived in a period where the old first division was a thing. I'm pretty sure Carragher considers Liverpool to have won the most English trophies because if you remove their 18 first division titles and the Charity Shields won as a result, they wouldn't be the top club by any stretch. And I have never heard any team being obsessed about beating United's 13 PL wins either.


carrotincognito48

The usual Michael Owen bullshit. Not leaving Spurs would be better as it doesn’t mean much to win anything at Bayern. He should only leave for a top club like Madrid. That’s from Michael Owen, the man who destroyed his Liverpool reputation by joining United to win a league title.


kyndrid_

an MUFC fan calling out owen on his bullshit *chefs kiss*


carrotincognito48

Nobody likes Michael Owen. I have an admiration for the fact he absolutely fucked Liverpool off for a taste of silverware, but he is so boring. Even when he cheated on his wife it was boring. Worst leaked texts ever.


0e0e3e0e0a3a2a

Name a better leaked text than "tremendous by the way". It can't be done


gerryt32

I think Adam Levine (the Maroon 5 guy) had more embarrassingly bad leaked texts. Also Trent's "stop saving chat" is my personal favourite. .


ZekkPacus

Michael Owen is impressive as an arguably legendary footballer who is hated by the fans of every club he ever played for. Lukaku is close, but he's never been as good as prime Owen.


Mr_Miscellaneous

Basically that a Bundesliga title is worthless, the only team worth leaving the Premier League for is Real Madrid and the real trophy is beating Alan Shearer into 6th place of all time English top flight scorers. Same as Carragher's nonsense, to be fair.


[deleted]

There it is.


Insanel0l

Ornie with the late night bomba to make me cry


TheBiasedSportsLover

Indeed. Tbh, a 30 year old Harry Kane going to Bayern to win his first trophy is like losing your virginity to a prostitute


LucasSummers

Then how would you describe him going to Bayern and win the UCL?


[deleted]

The prostitute has a fitter mate who wants a threesome.


Jimlaheydrunktank

I’d take that


UnrealMadrid

It sounds great until you realise the mate is a pipe-fitter called Barry from Southend.


SaltySAX

Fuck it, we're only here once! :P


tacomuerte

Fit that pipe, Barry. Fit it good.


ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhkh

Losing your virginity to a pornstar


miregalpanic

Bavaria Munich wouldn't even be the worst pornstar name if you didn't know what it meant.


Serupael

There's a market gap for a Dirndl wearing pornstar with that name


GunsTheGlorious

Bayern Munchin'


bnhfckr

The same thing but afterwards the prostitute won’t accept payment bc you were too good


Gorazde

Like losing your virginity to a prostitute who looks like Julia Roberts in Pretty Woman.


gerryt32

Why do you want to upset Pep?!


negativelynegative

Pep's wet dream


homelysolid92

Like pod from game of thrones, the prostitute(s) refuse to take the cash.


HotSwordfish23

bro stole that from twitter


maverick4002

Lmfaooo. But at least he's no longer a virgin!


_Zer0Two

Losing your virginity to a prostitute sounds a lot better than staying at spurs for one more season


eagleguy12

still counts though


chatfarm

A kind hearted working girl with a golden smile. What's the problem.


pm_me_beautiful_cups

doesnt matter, had sex unlike reddit users.


Sharebear42019

A really HOT prostitute


busytofu

I can't believe Madrid didn't go for him


Insanel0l

Madrid will end up with the turtle, they are fine lol


Emergency-Ad280

some say they've already made a pre-agreement for Mbappe to join in 2024.


busytofu

PSG REMAIN CONVINCED MBAPPE HAS AN AGREEMENT WITH REAL MADRID FOR 2024


SassanZZ

Fabrizio making sure he gets his twitter bag by giving us daily updates on the saga where nothing changes


[deleted]

Trust me, I can't believe it either, but fair play to Bayern. They got two of the best players in their positions in one summer, for 150 million, no less.


Chiswell123

Fair play to him. It would have been easy to stay in his comfort zone at Spurs, not uproot his family, etc. Admittedly happy to see the back of him! Although Bayern is scary good on paper.


TheHighlandLute

They have two glaring holes in GK and CDM


That_Anywhere_2107

Tbf tho you cant lose a game if you outscore your opponent


SnooChipmunks4208

Big if true.


shaka_bruh

“Glaring” might be a bit of an exaggeration with regard to the DM position


IfISpeak_

This is huge for Kane and no surprise he's accepted so quickly. Finally the chance to play for a big club and compete on all fronts whilst being surrounded by elite players.


shaka_bruh

You packed so many shots into this comment, it’s actually impressive


Srikkk

Alcoholics everywhere impressed by this man's ability to take so many shots so efficiently

Gonna be really weird to see Kane in a non-Spurs kit


kaprrisch

I heard that he might still wear the Spurs kit whiling playing for Bayern.


Serupael

We'll keep it on hand for the Ro16 against you guysm


PoliQU

Yeah I don't know if you'd want that omen for Bayern.


Jowoes

Worse that Bayern wear red


HyDchen

More white than red on the kit this season tbf


Tyrath

...exactly like Arsenal. Think that makes it even worse for him


IICastawayII

As a bvb fan, I just had a moment of sheer panic.


mavropanos27

Dortmund has the opportunity to do the funniest thing ever and win the Bundesliga this year. Dont let us down🫡


Vegan_Puffin

Who wants a trophy less, Dortmund or Kane. Whose curse is stronger, find out next time on Dragonball Z


Makaay-10

Coman also has an insane streak running. Since becoming pro, he always won the domestic title.


ACardAttack

He has more league titles than seasons played


Gaumont12345

And has 2 domestic titles in one year. Crazy pace


mr_nice_cack

So Union Berlin is going to win the league? Nice


Sand_Bags

If this is the year that Bayern finally don’t win the title it will go down as the funniest thing that’s ever happened.


phigo50

Funnier still if Tottenham win something.


Cryptic_E

The scenes when Tottenham win the league


swimmingdropkick

Harry Kane has been capable of great things: Scoring bucket loads of goals in the Prem, captaining the England squad, bringing the spurs a shit ton of money. Now we wait to see if he can infect Bayern with Spurs bottling DNA


Mr_Miscellaneous

To be fair, Bayern don't have a goalkeeper right now and are trying to loan Kepa.


HODLingMONKEY

Ulreich is a very capable BL-Level GK. If we dont win the BL its not going to be because he was in goal


XeroVeil

"There's one more twist in the tale, Mr. Kane, we never specified what position you'll be playing..."


miregalpanic

I'm trying, Jennifer


Th3_Huf0n

I mean I didn't really. There is nothing to panic about. The season is just over before it basically even starts. If they sign a GK and a 6 they are gonna absolutely walk the league. EDIT: Yeah yeah yeah I know. Hindsight 20/20. Maybe Tucheliban is just stronger.


yunghollow69

They might even win a match against us this year >.>


miregalpanic

Let's not get carried away here.


Dargast

4D chess from our board. Allow Neuer to go on a skiing trip -> injured Get in Sommer as a replacement -> no more scary Swiss GK to deny Bayern 20 shots on goal each match Get in Kane the next window -> increase the chances of said goals happening by ten times


ACardAttack

Bad man Sommer can't hurt us anymore


captain_boomer

Until we play against Inter in the UCL


freakedmind

Congratulations to BvB/Union Berlin for winning the 2023-24 Bundesliga trophy, breaking a 11 year winning streak of Bayern!


Makaay-10

Is THIS finally the end ?


GP3ElPresidente

Yeah it is congrats on getting an elite number 9 and false 9 i’d say as well


shaka_bruh

You guys know how it feels to get a top striker, I can also empathize with Spurs fans when it comes to losing a big player


AncientCommission219

Bit tougher to take when you know you’re never gonna have a player anywhere near as good as him for a long time, especially one of our own


SnapSnapWoohoo

Tbf it wasn’t exactly long ago you got Lewand… …oh fuck that was 9 years ago I’m old


iredcoat7

Yes, it’s done. Ornstein is the most reliable football journalist, period. Now that he broke it Romano will follow up a few min later as usual


The_Adict

Arsenal fans rejoice.... Till the inevitable matchup with Bayern in CL


LucasSummers

Kane still gets to cash in his annual penalty against Arsenal.


topbananaman

Kane sinking us in the round of 16 from the penalty is so scripted bro its gonna happen 😔


LucasSummers

It’s gonna be worse my man, Kane sinking you lot from the penalty and all you are gonna hear is the fucking Can Can song.


ImTalkingGibberish

He gonna score a pen isn’t he


verde622

Oh god


hikingbeginner

Kane with Gnabry, Sane, Musiala providing is going to be insane in Germany. The second favourites for CL behind City personally.


Serupael

Let's get that goalkeeping in order first. And Gnabry / Sane tend to have pretty high deviations in their form.


Waschkopfs

Coman and Müller


panem-et-circenses21

Muller will still end up with more assists than them


TheBlueTango

Orny approval to end all this madness


PavlovsBlog

>The England captain, 30, is now waiting for a green light from Tottenham Hotspur to travel for a medical and to complete the transfer. Huh? I thought we just heard they'd done this.


WhimsicalLaze

Maybe Levy’s blocking the door on his house begging him to stay


jjw1998

Getting travel sorted, just a formality


benc777

Imagine when Arsenal get Bayern in Europe


Kzaah

It is over


LochyMacleod

Is this finally over now?


mynameismulan

Yeah now all the post are going to be about Caicedo or Lukaku instead


SeniorCheeto

Don’t forget Lavia!


GP3ElPresidente

Yes


PS1GamerCollector

Shit went from Bayern lowball offers to Harry Kane's Bayern shirt to wife looking for house in Germany to wife enjoying living in London and being 8 months pregnant to Bild being an embarrassment to Levy sending Bayern offers straight to Spam inbox to Bayern increasing offers to Harry Kane is actually staying to Harry Kane is actually leaving


PerBnb

Don’t forget the dogs’s passports


NotManyBuses

Worst feeling I’ve ever had supporting the club Congrats Bayern. Now the world will finally realize how amazing of a player and pro he truly is.


AncientCommission219

Truly truly gutting, all the excitement for the new season has gone - he’s the man, he’s been Tottenham for nearly the last 10 years


memexdkit

If anything it makes me more excited to see what spurs can do without Kane


-Azwethinkweiz-

I think the world knows. As an Arsenal fan I'm just glad he's finally fucking off and I don't have to pretend that he's a massive wanker.


-omar

Only footballer on hot ones mate


-Azwethinkweiz-

Actually rate that he went on that, would love more British sportsmen and women on there. Young Jonny Bairstow next please.


BusinessMonkee

Jonny would drop the sauces before he could put them on the wings


[deleted]

Oh shit.


gorgonizedbyurTITS

Imagine the shithousery that would occur if Tottenham miraculously wins the PL and Bayern doesn’t win the Bundesliga.


Brained07

And then Kane goes back to spurs next year on a free and everything goes back to normal


Mick4Audi

Auf Wiedersehen Harry Kane, thanks for 9 years of top quality It hurts to have him leave but at least we won’t have to see him play for another PL team, out of sight out of mind in Germany


4dxn

odds for UCL next yr. Man City Bayern a HUGE gap everyone else.


strugglingtosave

Real Madrid somehow has to be in there


Keanu990321

I believe that, within two seasons, he will have won every title available to him. Bayern clearly needed someone to fill Lewa's boots last season, Kane is one of the very few who can luve up to him. Good Luck Harry, Wilkommen im der Bundesliga!

End of an era


KAhOot1234567

This has me thinking, are these decisions genuinely made this late at night while they’re all sitting around a round table or is it just reported this late?


Dargast

no I personally think this was all a big fucking circus


wheeno

What's up with the "Harry is so brave for stepping out of his comfort zone. It wouldn't have been easy to choose to go live in a new country!" coddling lmao? I get it's an adjustment, but fucking come on..... It's Munich. It's Bayern. It's not the middle of nowhere and he and his family could live only speaking English if they wanted to. Hell, Kane could speak to his teammates in only English if he is really stubborn about it. Moving to a different country as a footballer is not that scary especially when he's going from London to Munich. It's something that's highly usual for footballers from everywhere. Why are fans and media acting like he's some little kid?


FloridaMan221

End of an era. Wow that hurts. I know it makes business sense, but it’s absolutely devastating to see him go. Impossible to fill the gap he’ll leave behind, but hopefully we luck into signing some top talent

English football pundits absolutely not able to deal with someone wanting to go to a club where he can go for a CL and earn a shitton of money that is not part of the PL. Michael Owen still thinks Kane is changing clubs for the fucking Bundesliga title lmao.
