Predicting England's World Cup Squad

Harry Kane is without England's most important player and will be in Russia this summer.

The Tottenham No. 10 is England's main goalscoring threat, without which they would struggle to test the tough defences they will have to face if they want to go far in this competition.

Not only is Kane one of the best strikers in the world right now, he is, along with Vardy, one of England's only real options up front, with Danny Welbeck and Daniel Sturridge failing to hit the form that has seen them selected in past years.

Coming off the back of another incredible Premier League season, and still chasing Alan Shearer's all time goal scoring record, Harry Kane will not only make the 23 man squad, he will likely play every minute of every game, and maybe even captain the side as he has done previously.
