Speaking on the Overlap, the recently appointed Plymouth Argyle manager said Jordan Pickford and Harry Kane are the Three Lions\u2019 most important players.<\/p>\n

Rooney said: \u201cHarry Kane and Jordan Pickford are England\u2019s most important players. Jordan is important to England because Gareth Southgate doesn\u2019t rotate him in the friendly games, so we are yet to see what the other goalkeepers can do.<\/p>\n
