Harry Kane says Bayern Munich need to use Manchester United\u2019s issues to their advantage as the England skipper looks to shoot down his long-term admirers in the Champions League.<\/p>\n

Kane has long been linked with a move to Old Trafford but last month moved to the German giants from boyhood club Tottenham.<\/p>\n

He has hit the ground running with four goals in as many domestic games as attention turns to Wednesday\u2019s Champions League opener.<\/p>\n

United are the visitors and the England skipper, 30, maintains Bayern always felt like the right choice for his next club.<\/p>\n

\u201cTo be honest, obviously over the summer I know there were some talks between a few clubs in the background,\u201d Kane said.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut Bayern was a team I was really excited by so there wasn\u2019t too many other discussions once they came in.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy focus is on here. Obviously Manchester are a great club, a really big club as well, but I decided to come here and I\u2019m really happy I have.\u201d<\/p>\n

Kane joined Bayern in search of silverware that has evaded him for club and country \u2013 success that is almost guaranteed with the German behemoths.<\/p>\n

Trophies have looked far from certain over the last decade at United, who head to Bavaria in a precarious state after a third defeat in four matches compounded their well-documented off-field issues.<\/p>\n

Kane is wary of a potential backlash but acknowledged United have been going through a \u201cbit of a tough spell recently\u201d that they can capitalise on.<\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t know about the perfect time (to play them),\u201d he said. \u201cThere can be a big response from teams going through a difficult spell but of course we need to use circumstances to our advantage, to go with big confidence at home in front of our fans.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is important to start the game on the front foot and really try and put the pressure on the opposition.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey have some big threats as well, on the counter-attack they have some really quick players, so we need to be wary of that.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut overall it\u2019s a game we want to try to dominate and try to keep the pressure on and hopefully break them down as the game goes on.\u201d<\/p>\n

Thomas Tuchel\u2019s Bayern side are strong favourites to win Wednesday\u2019s match and second only to holders Manchester City in the bookmakers\u2019 odds to lift the trophy, but Kane is focusing on further improvements on a personal and collective level.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s been a good start for me here for sure,\u201d he said. \u201cWhenever there is a big transfer there is a little bit more pressure and expectation.<\/p>\n

\u201cReally pleased to score the four goals so far. I still think personally I can play better but I think that will come with getting to know my team-mates more and the system and the way we play.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere\u2019s definitely room for improvement in my all-round game but it\u2019s always good to score four goals in four games.\u201d<\/p>\n

Kane is the all-time top goalscorer of both England and Tottenham, who have started the season well despite their star turn\u2019s exit.<\/p>\n

New head coach Ange Postecoglou\u2019s side are unbeaten in the Premier League, with four wins \u2013 including one over United \u2013 and a draw leaving Spurs second.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey\u2019ve had a fantastic start,\u201d Kane said. \u201cI\u2019m always keeping an eye on them and I\u2019ll keep an eye on Tottenham for the rest of my life.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m really happy to see the team playing the way they are and to see the fans happy is a great thing.\u201d<\/p>\n
