Harry Kane has pleaded with Gareth Southgate to start on Monday in San Marino as the England captain hunts down Wayne Rooney's all-time goalscoring record.
The Spurs striker took his international tally to 44 with a hat-trick against Albania on Friday night and is setting his sights on another goal glut in Serravalle against the world's lowest-ranked team.
The 28-year-old took his tally of competitive goals for England to 39, overtaking Rooney's record of 37.
Kane is now eyeing Rooney's all-time record of 53, and is in touching distance of third-placed Gary Lineker (48) and Bobby Charlton (49) in second.
