      I'll answer a different question. Would you want Brune if still on Penalties (Yes) but would you want both given the value of rotating the armband around your premiums (probably not).

              One of Ron or Rom could bomb/get injured, in which case millions will be rushing over to your side and bag Kane.
              I watched him over the 3 England games. He was absolutely hopeless in all of them. Scored in all of them. Funny old game.
