Harry Kane overtook Alan Shearer on England’s all-time scoring list as his hat-trick moved him onto 31 goals and, the way he is playing, do not bet against him making strides towards Michael Owen’s total of 40 in Kosovo on Sunday.

Harry, like all the players, must take his share of responsibility for the poor performances.

Hopefully his form for England raises his club performances.

Heard this for a while. I'm not sure when people are going to get it into their heads that he isn't the problem, the lack of service he gets at club level is.

I want to see Sessegnon get some time. In his recent cameo he put some very dangerous and intelligent balls into the box.

International football is not what it used to be.

Kosovo for all its advances as a football nation is ranked 114 in the world. That is the equivalent of Wrexham in the conference. It is an FA Cup/Europa Cup game for the likes of Kane and Winks, so you would expect them to play well, look sharp and be quicker.

The funny thing for me is that the pundits think Winks is a more vibrant attack minded midfielder than Declan Rice. The question is whether he can make runs beyond the opposition back four in a Spurs shirt or is he even encouraged to do so.

Says every generation. Also Kosovo are probably a top 50 side and will be once they have established themselves.

International football has always had a mixed bag of quality but Kane has scored in all 8 of his qualifiers including 2 hattricks. You can't ask for much more than that.

To be fair to Harry, no one is cutting back in the final third.
Son is selfish
Fullbacks cant cross
Ali takes too much time with the ball
Lamela blows hot and cold
