Or maybe he should have stayed with Spurs, given the style of play they have now, he would have got a hatful.

Bayern are 7 points behind with a game in hand. Chill your bones Robb.

Bayern will still win the league.

As others have mentioned staying at spurs would be a better option than this.

Doesn't mean JOT. being all time leading goal scorer in the premier league. he would be still miles behind the whole time,top league scorer. (people seem to think football started with the premier league)
If hes doesn't win the league Bayern this season. he''ll do it next season.. No chance of that with Man-united or Tottenham

Maybe he’ll come back to the PL after one season and we’ll rescue him from having to play with Eric Dier in the snow.



He’ll never be a Utd player

It really is bizarre how people consider the premier league a new competition. It was a fackin name change, the end.

You're more likely to sign Eric Dier.

I mean scoring a load of goals against professional athletes is better than scoring loads against half cut beer bellied moustachioed players of the pre 80s.

Pre 80s

More like pre 00s

The Premier League has changed its name about four times. Utd fans don’t like to mention this though.

name changed

After PL came in, in 1992, the whole structure of football changed. More money in the game, better players, world class players no less, and world class managers, with the more competitive squads, better training regimes. more focused on being athletes

But yeah a name change

You’ve just described football, not the Premier League

posted on 24/1/24

SOOOOO Harry Kane is a better than Jimmy Greaves? I believe hes the all time top scorer in the top division.
You can't compare which time in football was the best..
Money means nothing.. Look at Man-united paying 85 million for Antony. he wouldn;t get into any team in the past

Well pre-Heysel, English clubs were successful in Europe, so we had our fair share of top players. In all sports, fitness and attitudes have improved, but players were just as skillful in yesteryear.

And let's face it, there are a hell of a lot of poor managers and players in the EPL, compared to world class ones.
The 'top league' is the top league, regardless of era.

I'm not a betting man but if I was to place a bet it would still be on Bayern winning the league. Then they're also in the CL, although unlikely to win that. Could still break the goals record in a Bundesliga season. Again I'm not sure he's going to do that but it's a possibility.

What he should have done is stayed with Spurs. More likely to win stuff in this present Spurs under Ange, than with United and all the problems they're experiencing. I think we'd be top of the league right now if we had Kane.

It’s not hard to work out why the prem has its own records, and it isn’t just because of a name change.

Ah man the post was going so well until this

posted on 24/1/24

I do reckon Kane could have got close to Greaves’ record had he stayed in the prem for the remainder of his career, though.

It's basically a very convenient marketing exercise. No other national league that I'm aware of does it.

It was more than that as it was established to be separate from the EFL.

Corporately different.

It meant no substantial change to the competition format. It was still the top flight of English football, relegated sides into the same division, took promoted sides from the same division.

In what major way was the actual competition itself different from the 1991-92 season, other than in name?

Essentially, it was just a reorganisation from a business perspective. There's no substantial reason to carve it away from the history of top flight English football.

posted on 24/1/24

Yes but it was an important distinction to make for record purposes, because they set up a completely different governing body. But as it is still the top flight it’s why both records are kept.
