KANE: I'LL FLOURISH WITH PHIL AND JUDE

HARRY KANE insists he can thrive in the same England team as Phil Foden and Jude Bellingham - and believes the all-star attacking trio still have time to prove it at this summer's Euros.

The Three Lions go into tomorrow's meeting against Slovenia sitting top of Group C on four points, but under pressure to deliver an improved performance following drab shows in both the 1-1 draw with Denmark and opening 1-0 win over Serbia.

One of Gareth Southgate's biggest dilemmas is what to do with his forward line, having seen three standout performers so far fail to click.

Last season, Foden and Bellingham won the Footballer of the Year awards in England and Spain, respectively, but did so while playing primarily in the same No10 role, while Kane's ability to drop into a similar position from centre-forward has long been one of his most unique qualities.
