Harry Kane (England)
Harry Kane will be the striker for the Captains XI. Gareth Southgate chose Harry Kane to sport the captain's armband for Russia 2018, and the Three Lions would be desperate to end their miserable run at the grandest stage. Having a young but formidable side, Gareth Southgate's squad has some of the best playmakers in the world right now.
Kane needs to repay the trust that has been placed on his shoulders. The honour of captaincy could impact Kane’s game massively and bring out the best in him. His inexperience could also lead to problems, but he will be the driving force for England's success in Russia.
The likes of Gary Cahill and Jordan Henderson should support Kane in motivating the squad. Could this be the year for England? Only time will tell.
