Fans all say same thing as Harry Kane bizarrely starts Carabao Cup clash vs Nottingham Forest just days before World Cup

The striker’s goals will surely prove key to the Three Lions’ success, having fired Gareth Southgate to a World Cup semi and Euros final in the past.

However, Antonio Conte decided to infuriate the English public on Wednesday by including Kane in his Spurs side at Forest.

The Carabao Cup third round clash is the second-last game in the calendar before teams break for the World Cup.

And many England and Tottenham fans had been convinced that Kane would play no role against the Prem’s bottom side.

They were indeed left shocked when Conte put forward a strong XI, including Kane up top.

And it led to almost all supporters saying the same thing on Twitter, with everyone hoping and praying Kane will avoid injury at the Forest Ground.

One fan declared: “Appreciate the gesture Harry Kane but it’s genuinely fine if you want to take this one at walking pace.”

Another yelled: “So are we taking this seriously? This line-up seems like we are. Kane hasn’t had a break in how long?!”

One gasped: “I know we have injuries but we are running Kane into the ground, every minute of every game.”

Another boomed: “Risking Kane! World Cup we need him!”

One added: “Not happy. Kane on the verge of tearing a hamstring. Played every game since October.”
