England skipper Harry Kane has fired back at his critics and insisted: “I’m not burnt out.”

The Tottenham striker drew another Three Lions blank in Croatia.

It was Kane’s sixth England game without a goal – and it’s put him under the spotlight with claims that he’s jaded after leading his country to fourth place in the World Cup in Russia.

But the 25-year-old, who headed against the bar in the ­second half, is convinced he’s in good shape.

“I’ve stayed fit and stayed healthy. That’s my main priority at the start of the season. Now it’s a case of building on that and pushing forward over the winter period.”



Gareth Southgate’s stars battled to a 0-0 Nations League draw in Rijeka, but it means they need to a positive result in Spain to have a chance of topping the group.

Marcus Rashford scuppered England’s best chance to win the game as Southgate’s men struggled to break down the World Cup runners-up.

The Spurs star added: “It was obviously a tough evening and a weird game to be involved in with no fans but I think we coped with it pretty well.

“The first half was probably an even game, we had one off the post and they had a couple of chances.

“In the second-half I think we played really well, we moved it quicker and got into more dangerous areas.

“But overall we are happy with the performance against Croatia. A bit more clinical and it would have been perfect but we move on to the game in Spain.

“And I’ll be ready to go again on Monday for sure.”

Southgate will be forced to shuffle his team in Seville tomorrow with Kop star Jordan Henderson and Manchester City defender John Stones both suspended after being booked in Croatia.
