Kane Did Not Get Enough Service At Euro 2024 – Graeme Souness

Liverpool legend, Graeme Souness has come out to say that he believes Harry Kane did not get enough service for England during the Euros 2024 tournament. He recently had his say while speaking to the press, and fans have been reacting.

According to him, midfield was clearly a big issue for Kane during the tournament, and the reality is that the midfielders were completely non-existent in the final against Spain.

Souness added that Kane regularly got bullied off the ball because it wasn’t being given to him quick enough.

His words, “If a conversation had taken place between Gareth Southgate and Harry Kane where he dropped Kane because he felt he was underperforming, then I think Harry would’ve agreed with him. However, Kane was not the same player that he’s been for a number of years where he has been the go-to man.

If I were him I’d be pointing to the fact that he doesn’t get enough service. No one passes to him, he comes short for the ball and doesn’t receive it. The England midfield is non-existent and they were non-existent in the final against Spain. He’s struggled because of that just as much as he’s struggled because of any lack of form or fitness.

He was getting no service whatsoever. He was getting bullied off the ball because it wasn’t being given to him quick enough. I have sympathy for him.”

WOW.
