Newcastle United manager Alan Pardew believes that England boss Roy Hodgson is lucky to have a striker like Harry Kane at his disposal.

"I think he is fabulous", Pardew was quoted as saying by ITV.

 

"I watched him on Sunday and when you have got an English striker who can do 13km at pace and have the quality and technical ability in the box, Roy Hodgson should count himself very lucky."

 

Kane has so far played ten matches for the England Under-21 team, having scored eight goals.

 

The 21-year-old is expected to take to the field against Pardew's side in tonight's League Cup quarter-final at White Hart Lane.
