Are we genuinely at a point where we are advocating playing decent Premier League strikers, Ollie Watkins and Ivan Toney, over the greatest English goalscorer of my lifetime in Harry Kane? I'm lost for words here.

The issue is with the manager who has failed to designed a system to get the best out of any of our best players. Harry Kane, Phil Foden, Declan Rice and Jude Bellingham all looked terrible today. We are ignoring the real issue here.
