A damning indictment on the quality of English forwards that

Whose personal tragedy will it be if he manages to score?

Astonishing that Ivan Toney isn't picked but this clown is.

 

[Harryflashman]

Well deserved imo, recently struggling a bit sure but overall he had to be there

I’ve got no real issues with him or Ill will towards the lad but he’s scored one goal since the first week in January hasn’t he ? Had to be there feels a bit of an odd overstatement

Toney plays in a genuine farmer's league though

10 league goals, should be there.

No other English centre forward has scored more in the Prem this season.

Turned 29 the other day, if he can stay fit, he'll always be in and around the squad.

Should have given Danny Welbeck a call up as well then

But only one goal (i think) in the last three months, and missed an array of sitters in that time.

I think he'll probably lift his game for England, I would like to see recent form accounted for in team selection though.

Given recent form this is a shock. DCL around Christmas then this would have been a no brainer. You have to worry about England if this even an option.

They're just extra numbers to flesh out the squad, I think Solanke is more a shock, none of them are displacing Kane though, which is just another damning indictment on English forwards

Kane is the best striker to have played for England in the last 20 years. No surprise that theres no one better out there and there won’t be for a long time.

Chuffed for him tbh.

On a human level it is hard not to be happy for him. Good people is Dom. Hopefully he does well.

It's not just that, we have been on a decline on quality forwards

England football: The great number nine decline - where have English strikers gone?

BBC Sport takes an in-depth look at why England lack centre-forward options behind Harry Kane - a far cry from when the likes of Les Ferdinand only won 17 caps.
