Tottenham ace Harry Kane believes that competition for spots will only improve the England squad ahead of the European Championships in France.

Goal-scoring performances from Harry Kane and Jamie Vardy in the 3-2 win over World champions Germany on Saturday have given England manager Roy Hodgson a lot to ponder with captain Wayne Rooney and winger Raheem Sterling still to return from injuries.

At present, Kane, Vardy, Danny Welbeck, Daniel Sturridge and Theo Walcott are all vying for forward positions in the Three Lions squad and the Spurs star feels that is a major positive for the country ahead of Euro2016.

"I am sure he (Hodgson) wants that," Kane said.

"He wants everyone on top form and applying themselves well. You want the best players to be on form come the Euros.

"I am sure it is a problem he enjoys having. All we can do is keep doing what we are doing, to keep playing as we have great belief.

"Wayne and Raheem are great players and I am sure they will be back in the squad. Everyone is fighting for places and it is what this country needs. It will only make us better players."
