Both Lineker and fellow ex-England captain Alan Shearer have been critical of Kane and his side’s overall performance after they drew against Denmark.
says journalists were “stirring the pot” after Harry Kane was asked about being on the end of criticism from former England players.
Lineker carried on the back-and-forth during the latest episode of the Rest is Football podcast, suggesting journalists were too scared to ask their own questions. “I guarantee whoever that was was probably critical themselves. They do it a) to stir the pot and b) because they’re too scared to ask a question from their own selves.“There was one bit there where he says that we have responsibilities as ex-England players, that we should know better and that we never won anything or words to that effect.
“England were really poor. I think the vast majority of the country, and even the boys in the squad, will know they were awful against Denmark. There were hardly any positives.” “It is not a case of leaving Harry out. Instead, you get legs around him — runners off the ball. I don’t care how experienced you are, all players need a little bit of help now and again and I’m sure he and Gareth will have been analysing the performance since Thursday.
