The last point is obviously true but Pep throughout his career has shown flexibility with how he structured his attacks. The first two points, really not important to City in the majority of transfers they’ve had major success with. Aguero, Fernandinho, De Bruyne, Cancelo, Ederson, Laporte, Dias, Silva, Gundogan, Bernardo, Rodri, Toure, Kompany... none had any experience in this league. The only major signings I can think of that were from this league were Walker, Stones, Sterling and Mahrez are exceptions, two of those were 22 or under, the other two were roughly £100m cheaper than the very least we’d consider for Kane.The benefits of Kane over Haaland include he has proven himself in the league, he is homegrown, and he is stylistically more suited to a team who like their number 9s dropping deeper etc.
