Harry Kane will have even more pressure on him as the captain of England

It is only natural that England go into every tournament with expectations of winning it, and it is only natural that all the pressures rest on one fragile individual whom the media dotes on before and abuses afterward. For this world cup, it is Harry Kane.

Kane burst onto the stage in the 2014/15 season when he scored 21 goals in the league with Tottenham, and won the PFA Young player of the year award. He finished the next two seasons as the top-scorer and was only eclipsed by Mohammed Salah this year.

His International debut came on 19 March, 2015 in a friendly against Lithuania. and scored just 80 seconds later. This time around, Kane will be wearing the armband as he leads England in a tournament stacked with favorites.

Kane will play every minute of every game when he is fit for the Three Lions, alongside Jamie Vardy up front. He will also have Raheem Sterling in the flanks to aid him with crosses, and despite a non-creative midfield England can fancy their chances in the World Cup.
