Kane says England will hold no fear in quest to win the World Cup

  • SOUNDBITE (English): Harry Kane, England World Cup captain:

    (On how England players need no fear of saying they can win the World Cup)

    "Maybe we're a bit afraid to say we want to win stuff because we're afraid of the reaction of maybe the media or the fans.  So maybe that's made the players go into a bit of a shell.  Whereas, what I'm trying to say is, 'look we're not afraid to say we want to win it, because every country wants to win it.'  So we have to be brave, we have to take that on the chin, whether we go out in a group stage or the semi-final it's the same - you don't win the World Cup. So that's what we've got to try and discuss as players, just to have no fear. When we talk about it we want to win it and we go from there."

    SOUNDBITE (English): Harry Kane, England World Cup captain:

    (on believing England can win the World Cup)

    "I believe we can, I think anyone can. I can't sit here in front of you and say we're not going to win it, because we could do so. It's just my mindset. I want to win at everything I do and I know a lot of players in the team want to win at everything they do. So that's what we're going to try and do.  Like I said earlier, it is going to be extremely hard, there are some really, really good teams in in the World Cup but it's worth fighting for. Those dreams of lifting it, I'm sure we've all had them and it's an opportunity for us, so we're going to fight and give it everything we've got."
