    1. Technique and touch - there is no point being the fittest/strongest/smartest/fastest footballer if you can't control a ball - this is what sets the world class players apart from the rest, taking the ball and manipulating it as you want when it doesn't appear to be able to be done but you can do it anyway.
    2. Football intelligence - you can be as thick as two short planks but if you understand the game and your position you can go as far as you want.
    3. Attitude - can't lose your head and throw the toys out the pram when it's not going your way. Always giving 110% and then aiming to deliver more once your at the peak.

    Harry Kane invalidates this point, the guy is a total mong but any team would love to have him.

    I think Kane has quite high football intelligence actually, his positioning is brilliant.

    Intelligence is quite a loose word in that sense, he definitely has good awareness though.
