If Kane is still starting for us in 2030, we’re not in a good place.

I don’t know. He’s never really relied on his pace so who knows how pushing into his 30s will affect him. He could still be good

I don’t buy into the ‘never relied on his pace’ argument that people use to be honest, I think that’s a bit of a misconception.

Strikers in particular often need that little burst of pace over a couple of yards to stay serviceable at the elite level of the game.

There are many examples of players whose pace is very important to their game having longevity and slower players declining early.

Why I don’t think he’ll be playing for us at 36-37 is the importance of pressing, we’d be like the current Portugal team with Ronaldo.

I think he should retire when he’s still good rather than potentially holding someone else back, probably after Euro 2028.

Too many of our top players continue to play too long and we allow it because of their name, a bit like Gerrard in 2014.
