Harry Kane has aimed a subtle dig at Tottenham Hotspur's mentality whilst discussing his new life at Bayern Munich.
Kane, 30, completed his £100 million move to the Bundesliga giants in August, putting pen to paper on a four-year-deal and calling time on a 19-year-career at Spurs.
The England skipper has enjoyed a prolific start to life in Germany, scoring three times and providing one assist in three league appearances, with Thomas Tuchel's side second in the table behind Bayer Leverkusen on goal difference.

Speaking whilst away on international duty, Kane compared the contrast in expectations at Bayern to Tottenham, admitting there was a "different pressure" at the Allianz Arena.
"It’s definitely a different pressure compared to what I felt at Spurs," he said during a press conference ahead of England's Euro 2024 qualifying clash against Ukraine.
"Of course we wanted to win things at Spurs but if you went a couple of games without winning then it wasn’t a disaster. The feeling at Bayern is that you have to win every game. We won the first two games 4-0 and 3-1 and there was still talk about not being too happy about the way we played.

"That’s part and parcel of being at one of the biggest clubs in the world. But we’ve had a good start and I’m enjoying feeling those different emotions and that’s part of the reason that I wanted to go.
"And we start the Champions League campaign when we get back, which they expect to win – or have a good chance of winning. So you’re going into those games with maybe a different feeling to what I’ve had in the past."
Many supporters may have been left surprised with how Spurs have coped in the absence of Kane so far, with the north London club currently second in the Premier League table under the guidance of Ange Postecoglou.
However, a penalty shootout defeat to Fulham in the opening round of the EFL Cup saw their first chance at silverware slip away.
