Scholes tells England player he didn't fit in before Tuchel came.
Paul Scholes, a former professional footballer, shared his thoughts on Harry Kane's recent performance with the England national team. According to Scholes, Kane appeared to be struggling and out of place during England's final Nations League game. He believes that this could be the beginning of the end for Kane as the captain of the Three Lions.

Kane, who has been in top form for his club team Bayern Munich, came off the bench in the game against Greece and started in the match against the Republic of Ireland. However, he initially struggled to make an impact until a penalty and red card in the second half opened up the game for England. Despite his impressive record of 17 goals in 16 games for Bayern this season, Scholes believes that Kane's time with the national team may be coming to an end.

During a discussion on The Overlap's Stick To Football with Sky Bet, Scholes remarked that it felt like the end for Kane. He also added that Kane looked out of place and it seemed like the beginning of the end for him. When reminded that Kane is only 31 years old, Scholes acknowledged this but stated that he looked older on the field. He compared Kane's situation to that of other players like Alan Shearer and Wayne Rooney, who also experienced a decline in their performances as they got older.

Scholes' co-host, Gary Neville, added that Kane's influence in the team may naturally diminish as he gets older. He explained that this is a common pattern in a player's career, where they start off as a regular, then become in and out of the team, and eventually reach a point where they play less frequently. Neville believes that this is not necessarily the end for Kane, but rather a natural progression in his career.

During the conversation, the panel also discussed a pass made by Kane to Jude Bellingham in the second half of England's win against the Republic of Ireland. Scholes questioned whether Kane meant to make that pass, to which Neville replied that it would be one of the best passes ever if he did. In the end, the panel agreed that Kane's role in the team will continue to evolve and it may not necessarily mean the end of his time with the national team.
