England start the international break by playing an away match at European minnows San Marino on Saturday, September 5, and follow up with a home match against Switzerland on Tuesday, September 8. Both Kane and Mason made their international debuts for the England senior side last March in matches against Lithuania and Italy: Kane was a second half substitute against Lithuania (where he scored his first international goal) and played 90 minutes against Italy, while Mason earned his first cap as a substitute against Italy.

Congratulations to both Kane and Mason! Request to Roy Hodgson: please make sure the bubble-wrap is securely fastened around Kane; we need him.
