Harry Kane will lead the line for England

The Three Lions have never won the World Cup since 1966. Wayne Rooney, Steven Gerrard, Frank Lampard, they had a countless number of special talent at their disposal, but they never delivered.

This year though they have a bunch of young attacking players in their team, and fans have huge expectations from them this term. The player who will carry most of the expectations is their main striker, Harry Kane.

The Tottenham man is among the best strikers in the Premier League, or certainly in the world aswell. He has been winning the PL Golden Boot for the last two seasons. He is among the league's top scorers this season once again, but a recent ligament injury gave his rival, Mohamed Salah an opportunity to overtake him on the list.

Harry Kane was England's top-scorer in the World Cup qualifiers and he needs to continue his goal-scoring form in the finals for England to win the Cup in Russia.

With the World Cup just a few months away, English fans will have huge expectations from him as the London born striker possesses all the qualities to lead England to glory.
