_Kane’s Top 5 England Teammates_

5. *Wayne Rooney*: Kane praised Rooney’s incredible talent, work rate, and leadership qualities.
_Notable Omissions_
Kane’s list raised eyebrows due to the absence of several talented young English players, including:
– Phil Foden
– Jude Bellingham
– Marc Guehi
– Curtis Jones
_Fan Reaction_
England fans took to social media to discuss Kane’s top 5 picks:
“Respect to Kane for naming Beckham, Gerrard, and Lampard. Those guys are legends” – @ThreeLions (Twitter)
“Surprised Foden and Bellingham didn’t make the cut. They’re the future of English football” – @EnglandTillWeDie (Instagram)
_Pundit Analysis_
Sky Sports’ Jamie Carragher praised Kane’s choices:
“Kane’s picked players who have achieved greatness for England. Beckham, Gerrard, and Lampard are all legends of the game.”
BBC Sport’s Phil McNulty added:
“Kane’s list shows his respect for the older generation of English players. However, it’s also interesting to see who he didn’t pick. Foden and Bellingham are clearly talented, but maybe Kane sees them as still developing.”
_What’s Next?_
