Kane and Dier brutally MOCKED by fans for turning Bayern into Spurs
Harry Kane and Eric Dier have been brutally mocked on social media for turning Bayern Munich into Tottenham.
Bayern were thrashed 3-0 by Bayer Leverkusen on Saturday in a top-of-the-table clash, putting the Bavarians’ chances of winning the Bundesliga very much under threat.
The unbeaten Leverkusen, managed by Xabi Alonso, are now five points clear at the top, with 13 games of the season remaining.
Bayern have won the last 11 Bundesliga titles and had been red-hot favourites to make it 12 at the start of the campaign.
Kane joined Bayern from Tottenham last summer for a club record fee of over €100 million. Meanwhile, Dier joined Kane at Bayern in January on loan from Spurs.
Both Kane – who individually has had a brilliant season for Bayern and scored 28 goals in 28 games in all competitions – and Dier have never won a trophy in their careers.
Meanwhile, it has often been cruelly noted by fans of other clubs at how few trophies Tottenham have won in recent decades. Indeed, they have not won the league for 63 years, the FA Cup for 33 years, or a trophy of any kind for 16 years – their last honour being the League Cup in 2008.
And fans took to social media to mock Kane, Dier and Tottenham after the defeat to Leverkusen, joking that they had turned the winning machine of Bayern into Spurs.

Tottenham in pole position for “devastating” £25m attacker who’s “like Salah”
The Lilywhites have sent their scouts.
Tottenham Hotspur, as the action continues on the pitch, with Ange Postecoglou’s side still vying for a place in the Premier League’s top four come May, have reportedly continued their pursuit of summer targets.
According to reports, the Lilywhites are now in pole position to land a player who’s been compared to Mohamed Salah.
Tottenham transfer news
After signing Timo Werner on loan and sealing permanent deals for Radu Dragusin and Lucas Bergvall, who will join up with the squad in the summer, Daniel Levy is seemingly still on the hunt for reinforcements. Ahead of the summer window, Spurs have already been linked with Ivan Toney once again, alongside the likes of Girona defender Miguel Gutierrez and Barcelona winger Raphinha, as the North London club look to hand Postecoglou all the tools to succeed.
As things stand, Postecoglou has Spurs in fourth, one point above Aston Villa, who have a game in hand. The Lilywhites haven’t exactly done things easy under the Australian, either, as highlighted in their latest victory – a last-gasp win over Brighton & Hove Albion courtesy of Brennan Johnson’s goal.
An attack already firing home dramatic winners could yet get another addition in the summer too. According to Calciomercato via Sport Witness, Spurs are now in pole position to sign Albert Gudmundsson from Genoa this summer, having previously sent scouts to watch the winger, who can also play as a second striker.

Brennan Johnson spared this usually brilliant player’s blushes on Saturday afternoon.
Spurs, of course, already have a close and recent relationship with Genoa, with Dragusin arriving in London and Djed Spence going in the opposite direction during the January transfer window. Now, as the Italian club seek a reported €30m (£25m) for their attacker this summer, that relationship could be used once again.
“Devastating” Gudmundsson is “like Salah”
It’s fair to say that Gudmundsson has earned high praise in Italy, with former AS Roma man Kevin Strootman telling Il Secolo XIX newspaper via Football Italia:
“If he keeps improving, he won’t stay at Genoa for long. He reminds me of Salah when he was at Roma, in that every now and then he disappears. Much like Salah then, he would have four or five chances per match and only score at most one.
“They used to say that if Salah was more clinical, he would be playing for Liverpool, and that is exactly what happened. All joking aside, Gudmundsson is a devastating player and also an exemplary professional.”
