ITV Sport pundit Gary Neville tore into tbe people questioning the performances of England captain Harry Kane ahead of Sunday night's Euro 2024 final against Spain
A bemused Gary Neville has branded the criticism levelled at England captain Harry Kane throughout Euro 2024 as "staggering".
Despite said criticism, Kane is the tournament's joint-top scorer after plundering three goals for his country - and Neville cannot believe that people have slammed him for dropping deep given that dropping off into space has been a key trait in the striker's game for years. "He doesn't look right physically, that's what I would say, but I think he knows how to play the game. He's the very best striker we've ever had."
Neville then went back to questioning Kane's fitness and predicted that it would emerge the striker was playing with an injury after Sunday night's final.
