What Kane really needs for his legacy, for his place in the public mind, is a moment. Kane scored 280 goals for Tottenham before he left last year, 14 more than the previous record set by Jimmy Greaves. Through what we may soon call the Gareth Southgate golden age, Kane has been England’s best player. Southgate consoles Kane after England’s elimination in Qatar (David S.

This was, for the most part, a dismal England performance, regardless of the supernatural deliverance at the end. Everything that was bad about today in Gelsenkirchen had been signposted by England over the course of the last few weeks. The red flags had all been there since England opened their campaign in this same city two weeks ago. And yes, England are desperately flawed, still unbalanced, still uncertain on the ball, still struggling to create chances even when they dominate possession. None of the lingering questions over this England team have been solved.
