    It seems like Kane is carrying a knock but is refusing to have a rest hoping he'll catch Salah for the Golden Boot. Bit selfish and Poch shouldn't allow that anyway. Weird one tbh.

    His ankle is clearly still restricting him. And yes, you’re right, he should be rested.

    Surely that’ll tell in an under par World Cup performance but then Poch won’t be remotely interested in England’s fortunes. He does seem desperate at all costs for the golden boot which is odd as you say

    Yeah he won't catch Mo anyway. Take one for the team ffs. This along with claiming Eriksons goal just shows what he's all about.

    I get strikers are greedy etc. But he's taking the ****ing piss now <laugh>

    A below par performance is hardly going to stand out in an England squad at a tournament, is it?

    Even if he's below par he'll provably be our best player.

    He's the only elite player in the whole squad. That's how bad English football has become.

    One of the reasons why selling Wembley isn't a bad idea...as long as the money goes into building from the bottom and making facilities etc. better.

    True that <laugh>:emoticon-0148-yes:
    On fire though he could make a difference. Personally I feel he should have let himself recover properly. He’ll probably bad enough against us next week to win the golden boot anyway

    It’s the pressure to deliver in the prem, luv. Clubs and their managers are under enormous pressure to deliver results - now! So, they buy and buy ever more expensive foreigners in a frantic game of one upmanship with their rivals.

    In a nutshell, it’s about money. Success sells, failure doesn’t.

    The Wembley deal that's been suggested seems ridiculously dodgy, to me.
    I've more confidence that the money will end up in someone's back pocket than the grass roots of the game.

    If the FA want to help the game in this country from the bottom up, then they need to reverse their decision on youth contracts.
    It's no longer viable for the non-massive clubs to maintain a worthwhile youth system.

    England should look at how the Germans have done it.

    True. But that takes patience and planning. The Prem and their sponsors won’t have much of that.
