Tottenham legend Glenn Hoddle is keen to ease the expectations on Harry Kane.

Hoddle believes talk of him leading the line for England is premature.

"He has improved so quickly this season but we'd be stupid to think that improvement curve is going to keep rising at the same speed," Hoddle told the Mail on Sunday.

"But if he keeps at the level he is now that is magnificent. If he can maintain the consistency, playing different roles, he'll go into the England squad. He's not in front of the likes of Daniel Sturridge at the moment but if he continues to flourish and score more goals, he'll force his way in."
