Haaland is at the same level as Vini and also Mbappe, currently these three players are strong candidates as the best player every year. Rasmus Hojlund still needs quite a long time to be side by side with Haaland or even with other great players and considering he is still very young I think if he continues to consistently score goals in every game then this will soon be achieved, especially setting records every season is also necessary to increase his credibility as a future great player. Now we are waiting to see how he will do in the Champions League with Manchester United, considering that this is the first time he has been in Europe's highest competition.
Even Hojlund was not that well-known before Manchester United brought him from Atlanta in this transfer season, he is not as great in Atlanta as people imagine. Manchester United bought him only because they saw the potential that he could become a star in the future and United's hopes made sense at his age and playing in a competition that was tougher than before could increase his skills, while Haaland and Mbappe have proven themselves to be reliable strikers, even Haaland has scored a lot of goals before he moved to Manchester City, and Mbappe doesn't need to be doubted, so Hojlund has quite a difference from the two seniors, but he will be able to develop at Manchester United that's why United dared to spend big enough for him, but in the champions league maybe he won't be the main one to play immediately in the early minutes of the match.
That's right, I actually don't know who he is even though he often follows the development of players in Serie A, but it's clear he only scored 9 goals last season so his name was not heard before and since Manchester United took an interest in him his name immediately filled all the timelines of all social media. Haaland and Mbappe have an even crazier instinct for scoring goals and both of them always fill the top scorers every season.

Indeed, I also believe that as long as there is real progress, the players will be able to develop, especially in big clubs, the atmosphere of the supporters and greater responsibility that requires players to continue to show their performance. I think Erik ten hag will still use Hojlund as the main striker and optimize Rashford more as a left winger because otherwise they will find it difficult to adapt to the Champions League without full strength.

How can hojlund proves himself if this guy was getting injury even before he was starting his debut in manchester united. I never heard his name before in the UCL or even a potential candidate for ballon d'or.
I think people shall stop to hype. Let him try to proves whether he is worth 75 millions or not. His performance in atalanta was not even so good. osimhen is far better in serie a compared with him. I don't even know how can people called him one of best striker while his performance is far compared with some top scorer in serie a last season. Let's talk about the fact.

Giroud has better stats compared with him even though giroud was old enough than him.

https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/italian-serie-a/top-scorers

he was number 20 of top scorers in serie a last season. Totally overrated player. IMO, hojlund was a panic buy by ten hag. I don't even think he will perform well in EPL.

Because he did not lift any trophy with Tottenham, he wants to find new challenge at bigger club that can help him to lift trophies. He deserves to lift trophy so his ambitious target is understandable. It together with the disrespectful treatment from Levy and Tottenham for him, will force Harry Kane to the exit gate unavoidably. I believe that he will not sign any new contract with Tottenham after was betrayed by Levy two times.
Considering that he is getting older at the end of retirement, I think there is no hope for Kane to be able to choose another big European club that can provide him with a high salary.
He should be able to take advantage of the opportunities that exist but it seems that Tottenham will not be easy to just let Kane go.
If we talk about Kane's terrific performance with Tottenham, they were indeed unable to lift a championship trophy, but at least Kane made a good contribution to the club he defended.

Tottenham should have been able to appreciate Kane's hard work so far and it would be a shame if at the end of his retirement Kane was made difficult by Tottenham to achieve what he wanted.
Loyalty will not always be rewarded or appreciated, sometimes it ends badly with treatment that we might see as unnecessary because he is also a player who contributes a lot to this club.
He is not completely late to leave, but with his age so I say he is a little late, because this is not the only time he has been targeted by big club clubs, but I he prefers to spend his time with Tottenham.
You're right, maybe he won't get a high salary, but if that's not what he thinks then it's not a problem. If you're talking about salaries, going to the Arab world will definitely get him what he'll get in Europe.

If only he'd pushed harder, then I'm sure he'd be at a different club by now. Unfortunately he still follows whatever the club decides.

In as much as Manchester City would like to dominate the UEFA Champions League competition after winning the European title last season for the first time in the history of the club, there's a minimal chances of establishing such dominance in Europe especially now that many other clubs are wary of Manchester City.
Pep Guardiola is known for his relentlessness to achieve records that seems very to difficult to get but I think dominating the UEFA Champions League is something that may never happen
Manchester City won the Champions League trophy last season because of a long period of relentless work. Manchester City were crowned European champions last season under Pep Guardiola. Manchester City is going to start a new season after finishing the last season successfully. Manchester City will want to make the 2023-24 season as bright as the last season. Manchester City has a lot of potential to do well in the next season as well. Manchester City will be among the favorites for the Champions League next season. The departure of several players may have a negative impact on the team, but Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola has hopefully already planned for this. We look forward to another great season for Manchester City.

I'm not trying to join the bandwagon to compare between Hojlund and Haaland. but clearly, these two players are on different levels. when Haaland played for Dortmund, there were many big clubs who wanted his services. well, it can be said that now Halaand is an established striker.
So far Haaland is far better than Hojlund but in football, sometimes a player does not have good signals to be a great player when he is young but later he suddenly grows up and becomes a great player. They have a short period at top levels than players who are star players at young ages but during such short period, they can be one of greatest. Luca Toni in Italy, Jamie Vardy in England are good examples in the last 20 years and Hojlund is still young to repeat such success. At least he has a chance to play for a big club when he was young.

Quote
As Ten Hag said on several occasions, if Hojlund could be much more developed. He also has huge potential, now it's up to him to explore his talent and we will support him. which in essence, now that Manchester Unted has a player who plays as a center forward, they no longer have to rely on Marcus Rashford.
Hojlund will have to be more serious with his training, learning from videos and players in a same club, same league to sharpen all his skills including improve his weakness and try to strengthen his best skills.

I'm not going to compare players but I think Hojlund is a young player and he is a good finisher I think he is very similar to Haaland and even his name is similar. However these players are not compatible because the performance of Haaland was much better than Hojlund, but I think not Ten Hag can have a player to have a better and close race with other teams like Manchester City and Real Madrid in the Champions League.  
Maybe quite the same, because after all he is a talented player. but for now Haaland is on a different level. He has proven himself to be successful and doing very well at his club. And Hojlund just might prove it. Because of that, it's just a matter of how Ten Hag will hone it so that this talented player becomes an extraordinary player, able to match his strength with Haaland and be recognized throughout the world. And how in the future Hojlund can make a very good and consistent contribution at Man United. This might not be easy for her, but it doesn't mean it's impossible.

Unlike Hojlund, the fact is that this player doesn't really attract the attention of big clubs. other than that, this striker has not shown his skills. but naturally, after all, the age of this player is still very young. and maybe that's why, Ten Hag chose him over the other strikers. at least, it looks like Hojlund has a plus from Erik Ten Hag's point of view. not because this striker is good, but there are several points that are considered by the Manchester United coach.

As Ten Hag said on several occasions, if Hojlund could be much more developed. He also has huge potential, now it's up to him to explore his talent and we will support him. which in essence, now that Manchester Unted has a player who plays as a center forward, they no longer have to rely on Marcus Rashford. it is not impossible, if Hojlund will develop much more under the tutelage of Erik Ten Hag and become a sharp striker. but what is certain, let's see how it is when Hojlund and his squadmates take it game by game after the league starts.

This is the last season with the current format in the Champions League. While there is no reason UEFA decided to change it to an awkward league-group combination. We will see how much that will work out. Who knows maybe they would return to the current one after a while if teams don't like the new one at all.

But it would be really sensational if UEFA decide to accept Saudi Arabian teams into their organizations. There would be quite a balance problem in the tournament as those teams are getting much stronger in time. But at least their spending whatever amount they would like can be prevented by doing this.  Grin

It is a fact that Hojlund's popularity increased when he was always linked with Manchester United and now that he has officially joined, his popularity must have increased even more but indeed in this case the expectations of most people and that includes me can actually be said to be excessive for Hojlund's performance.
But hopefully with great expectations it can motivate him and even though his performance still cannot be compared to Haaland or Mbappe but as long as he can contribute at Manchester United and become a hope in the midst of a finisher crisis for Manchester United then it is very good.

Hojlund is a striker who is playing really impressively at national team level. However we haven't seen the same effort in league matches from him yet. But maybe the Premier League would be a better place for him rather than the Serie A. He is a decent scorer for his national team and he can maintain this effort at the right team as it seems. That right team could be Manchester United who knows. But we won't be able to find out about it for a little while due to a pre-season injury.

His performance will be important in the Champions League as well. He isn't familiar with this tournament yet but if he adapts he can be really useful for Manchester United to be more deadly against the biggest title contenders. He has the potential to be a similar player to Haaland I think.

Kane should have done more earlier than Tottenham. But he was very loyal to this club. So he stayed with Tottenham despite not winning any titles. Kane has been with Tottenham since 2010. and became a regular player in the Tottenham squad in 2013. Kane has been with this club for a long time. And he has been providing service to this club. The team has had excellent performances from Kane almost every season. If the Tottenham management were to strengthen their squad and try to build a title-worthy squad, Tahel Kane would have decided to stay with Tottenham. But Tottenham management won't do that. Harry Kane will definitely want to win the title. That is why he is interested in moving to a better team than Tottenham.

on August 18th we would finally have the complete picture of this year's champions league, predicting which of these 20 teams will pass is very difficult because apart from a few simple pairings, there are many balanced matches, but I try to give my personal list of ten teams that they will go through.
  • Copenhagen
  • Aris-limassol
  • PSV
  • Dynamo-Zagreb
  • Klaksvik
  • Galatasaray
  • SC Braga
  • Marseille
  • Maccabi haifa
  • Rangers

Here's who I think will pass the shift. A question arises, does the new format of the Champions League start from this year?
Here Everyone is going with his own statics and predictions because now things are looking much easier after few rounds, and we have just few teams from their few are really strong enough for going through into Champions League because now recently gape of quality is widening between many teams here I am also having my predictions with mostly are OK, but I believe Klaksvik vs Moldethis match is going to be interesting and Molde can qualify for the main round of the Champions League with their available sources and enough quality which is much better than Klaksvik all others are same as you already marked, and I am also going with these predictions hopefully these teams will give us good entertainment in coming matches.

I agree, for now making predictions could be easy, because there are still strong teams coupled with less strong teams, but often the rule of football is cruel and I'm not surprised if a more fragile team manages to get through. I looked at the statistics of both klaksvik and Molde, and being two teams now very advanced in the matches played between the league, the league cup and the champions league qualification, I think that the one that is in better shape is klaksvik, especially when they play away from home they manage to give their best, managed to beat Ferencvaros who on paper was much stronger. It's simply my personal bet, tomorrow we'll see if my prediction can be true

Kane move to Bayern Munich is still doubtful now. Because Tottenham chairman still continues to stall them. I would really love to see Kane competing in the Champions League with Bayern Munich this season. They offered 100 million euros but still no positive answer yet. If we see Tottenham rejecting this offer as well then it is over.

Bayern Munich don't think of increasing their offer than this anymore. This is technically the highest price that Tottenham can get for Kane now. They just don't let Kane become more successful after all these years without a single title.
Bayern Munich is a German club and they will not overspend money like Premier League clubs, La Liga clubs or Saudi Professional clubs. Over years, they are very wisely and disciplined to use their budget for transfers, salary and they aim at sustainable finance for their club. So they will not overpay money for Harry Kane even they need a good striker after Lewandowski departure and their failure in Champions League last season and very last minute title winning in Bundesliga.

I don't believe Bayern Munich will increase their offer to buy Harry Kane if they think that price is overpaid and very expensive. They know that Harry Kane is already old and they will not have guarantee that Kane can play well like four or five more seasons. It's a risky transfer for Bayern Munich and I see it is opposite with their traditional transfer style.

A whopping €100 million for Tottenham's finest striker? He's in an excellent position to play for Bayern Munich; after all, he's been at Spurs for decades without a solid proof by lifting trophies, nothing to show for it.
Because he did not lift any trophy with Tottenham, he wants to find new challenge at bigger club that can help him to lift trophies. He deserves to lift trophy so his ambitious target is understandable. It together with the disrespectful treatment from Levy and Tottenham for him, will force Harry Kane to the exit gate unavoidably.

Harry Kane remained the Bavarians' first priority to fill the void generated through Robert Lewandowski. Bayern Munich boosted and filed their final proposals for the Englishman, leaving Tottenham Hotspur with the option to reject or accept the bid. Spurs have yet to provide a meaningful response, which could be negative or positive for the Bundesliga giant.

Levy should be able to satisfy Harry Kane to leave in this transfer window because Harry Kane has given everything for Tottenham in the previous seasons. Of course the offer of 100 million euros is quite high considering his contract period will expire next season so it can be confirmed that if Tottenham reject this offer they will be ready to lose money if Kane leaves when his contract expires.
Levy is not such a boss so he only wants money for his club and does not respect Harry Kane after all big contributions he did for Tottenham. Levy states that he only let Harry Kane goes if any club satisfy his demand transfer price $100M that is bigger than what Tottenham will get if they are eligible for Champions League 2024 - 2025.

If any club wants Harry Kane but bargain for lower price than $100M, Levy will keep the striker in Tottenham and only let him go as a free agent.

Quote
Levy needs to be professional about this because he can buy another striker with the money he got from selling harry kane. I will also be looking forward to Kane debut with his new team in the Champions League if he manages to join Bayern Munich in this transfer market.
He is professional by stating the price he wants to sell Harry Kane but we know Levy is very clever to sell his players, from Modric to Bale and it's unlikely he will accept low offer for Harry Kane.

And Hojlund just might prove it. Because of that, it's just a matter of how Ten Hag will hone it so that this talented player becomes an extraordinary player, able to match his strength with Haaland and be recognized throughout the world. And how in the future Hojlund can make a very good and consistent contribution at Man United. This might not be easy for her, but it doesn't mean it's impossible.
Surely Hojlund is burdened with a very crucial role for next season because he is Erik Ten Hag hope for the front line of the Red Devils this season. Now it's not too good to compare these two players with their level of ability to make a big contribution to the team they are defending.

Apart from that, Haaland has made himself a very aggressive, Sticker figure in the Premier League last season. Many of the individual achievements he had made in the previous season. Well, for Hojlund there is also great hope that he can achieve all of this and all of them need the support of his teammates.
