It would be interesting to see what type of leader Kane is. He never comes across as blessed with charisma but he is definitely a level-headed guy and is thoughtful in his answers. He can definitely thump his chest and do ra-ra though. Makes me laugh that the Brits need that whereas Lloris is almost certainly a calmer and more intelligent communicator in the squad.
The free-kicks are annoying me now. There have been some bowling cricket captains that don't bowl themselves enough. Kane is the opposite. He grabs the ball for the free-kicks whereas a great leader would step aside and let someone else have a go. There is nothing to admire about Kane in this area right now.
Ultimately, what we need most is Kane, the player, with more intelligent footballers and high energy around him. It is bad enough having to do the defensive thinking for Son. Recently, Kane has Moura around him as well and you can see Harry shutting down on his defensive duties. Kane is almost getting to the age where the younger, fitter guys need to be doing the high-energy stuff for him.
