What Harry Kane said
Kane has now responded to their remarks, reminding them how hard it can be to represent your nation
“I’d never want to be disrespectful to any player, especially a player that’s worn the shirt and knows what it’s like to play for England, Kane said, per The Sun.
He continued, “What maybe ex-players, ex-players who are pundits now have got to realise, it’s very hard not to listen to it now, especially for young players who are not used to it or some players are new to the environment.
“I always feel like they have a responsibility, I know they’ve got to be honest and have their opinion but they have a responsibility as an ex-England player that a lot of players looked up to, people do care about what they say and do listen to them.
“Everyone has got their opinion, but the bottom line is we haven’t won nothing as a nation for a long, long time and a lot of these players were part of that, and they know how tough it is.”
