"Bayern, who have won all 10 of their games in all competitions so far this season, have been ruthless in front of goal, already netting 25 goals in their first six league matches. It is the highest tally any team has recorded at this stage of a Bundesliga campaign. They have also scored at least three goals in each of their last seven top-flight matches, and doing so in an eighth game would equal a club record set in 2005."
"He recently scored in six consecutive competitive matches, and if he nets against Borussia Dortmund on Saturday, he would equal his personal record in club football (October-November 2023, also with Bayern). "It may have helped that he didn't win many titles, because it kept him hungry, Kompany explained. "He's developed, and he has to want to. I can't develop a player of that quality on my own. We hope things continue to go as well as they have so far.""
""I'm not the national coach of England, Germany, or anyone else. Everyone can decide for themselves what to do with their players," Kompany added. "We all want them to be fit for the club and also for the World Cup. No one wins if the player isn't healthy. And we mustn't forget that Kane didn't even play the first game, so he has had plenty of time to recover.""
Bayern Munich have won all 10 matches across competitions to start the season, scoring 25 goals in their first six league games — the highest total at this stage in Bundesliga history. The team has scored at least three goals in seven consecutive top-flight matches and can equal a club record with an eighth. Harry Kane has scored 11 league goals so far this season, setting a record for this stage, and has scored in six consecutive competitive matches. Vincent Kompany credits Kane's previous lack of trophies for keeping him hungry and says the striker's development and mentality have boosted his performance. Kompany stresses player fitness and recovery amid club and international commitments.
