Thierry Henry has impressed fans with his analysis of the differences between Tottenham Hotspur striker Harry Kane and Manchester City superstar Erling Haaland.
Both Kane and Haaland have been two of the best strikers in world football in recent years, they are the two top scorers in the Premier League with 17 and 25 goals respectively.
Since his arrival from Borussia Dortmund, Haaland has hit the ground running straight away but in recent weeks, the Norway striker’s form has been under slight scrutiny.

Arsenal and France legend Henry has expertly analysed the two players.
On Kane, Henry explained how he developed his game to become a complete striker.
He said on CBS Sports: “He became complete, he became an all-around player and this is what I like about him.

“We all know what he can do and all know what he can do in the box, but what he does outside of the box now for his team this is something that I have to respect massively. He became for me, over the last two, three years, a complete striker.”
When fellow pundit Jamie Carragher asked if City would be better with Kane in their side ahead of Haaland, Henry said: “I think so. I think it would've been better.
“There was one piece of advice that Arsene Wenger gave me that stayed with me, he said: 'What can you do when your team is not feeding you’.”
Henry continued to explain how he used to learn the qualities of his teammates and what made them great players, advising Haaland to do the same with Kevin de Bruyne and Bernardo Silva.

The Frenchman added: “I think sometimes Haaland is making the same run, whoever is on the ball.”

Another tweeted: “Henry is just pure class.”

A third fan added: “Always excellent to hear from Henry. Young strikers with ambitions need to listen up!”
Haaland and City will be in action on Wednesday night as they take on Arsenal, which could hugely impact the outcome of the Premier League title race.
