After progressing to the Champions League quarter finals, Kane stated: He has shown his quality with the ball and he has shown his quality as a leader.
He has to keep doing what he is doing. Gareth Southgate knows what he is capable of and it will be pleasing for him to see another Englishman playing at the highest level. Hopefully, Eric can keep it up.
Eric has been a big part of the national team in recent years.
"He missed out on the Euros squad but was with us at the World Cup.
"All Eric can do is perform the way he has. I am really proud of him."
