We over achieved, nobody doubts that, but like you say, I do hope it doesn’t mean we’re not honest about all the squad.Its quite interesting the debate on Kane.
I don't think he was injured he just got tired as the tournament went on.
He was dropped into midfield behind Sterling probably to accommodate Sterling which opens up another can of worms regarding Rashford and Vardy.
Against Columbia I believe he could easily have been substituted but he was kept on to take a penalty,why,because Vardy couldn't or wouldn't take one.
He could easily not of started today either as he was shot.
It also begs the question can South gate make massive decisions.
Martin Keown was raving about South gate saying " he's not afraid to make big decisions ",but regarding Kane I think he was.
Once the dust settles I would hope Southgate will go over all the games, decisions, players, what worked, what didn’t and he learns from it, even if he got some things wrong.
Too many positives not to take the ugly decisions.
