Would have said it's a decision for the local leagues/FAs to make and, like so many things, big "government" trying to stick their oar in is not something that should be welcomed.

Juventus 4-3 Inter

Some great goals. Not least the injury time winner.

Should definitely be dropped by England. We'll do better without him.

I'm interested how far up the all-time goalscorers list Kane can climb. Still only 32. He is on 465 career goals, including his 74 for England. Only 26 players are officially credited with 500 career goals - Kane will no doubt become the 27th. To reach top 20 all time, and nudge above Di Stefano, he needs 537 goals. 626 for top 10, that looks out of reach.

Fwiw of those 26, five players are 'live' - Ronaldo (1st, 943), Messi (2nd, 880), Lewandowski (7th, 677), Suarez (12th, 597) and Benzema (26th, 501).

Lewandowski got 42 in 52 games last season as a 36 year old in La Liga - has to be Kane's 'model'.
