Recently, Jamie O’Hara and Jason Cundy, two pundits on talkSPORT, suggested that Southgate should consider dropping Kane for the European Championship semi-final.
O’Hara stated: “Kane has become one of England’s problems in this European Championship, it’s true. He’s completely lost his peak form and is actually slowing down England’s attack. If it were up to me, I would drop Kane for the semi-final.”
Cundy, sitting beside him, responded: “You want to drop the captain? Do that in the European Championship semi-final? You need to think about that, those words carry a lot of weight.”
“Because if you get it wrong, it will be a big problem, and that’s the problem Southgate faces. I say this because I also agree that Kane should be dropped.”
“Kane has been awful and hasn’t offered anything. When Saka went down the line, we were hoping Kane would get away from the defenders and get into a scoring position, but he was still standing around the penalty spot! We want to see him in the box.”
“This happened two or three times in the last game, Kane was like he had lead in his legs, I don’t know what’s going on, I don’t know what his real physical state is.”
