CHRIS SUTTON: Harry Kane's goal against Poland proved why he should never be written off... he receives ridiculous flak when he isn't on top form, but his strike out of nowhere showed what a great goalscorer he is

Never, ever write off Harry Kane. It seems to me that Kane receives a ridiculous amount of flak whenever he isn’t on top form.

Maybe that’s because we’re so used to him being ultra-ruthless. He was hammered in the group stages of Euro 2020 for not being the all-scoring, all-assisting machine he'd been in the Premier League the previous season.

But he soon showed up at that tournament, and it was the same against Poland here. For 70 minutes, he was apparently a flop who would've never been worth the £150million that Manchester City fancied spending on him.
