Harry Kane seemed to have snapped against media personalities for their criticism of his team's performance in the ongoing Euro 2024 in Germany.
The Bayern Munich striker did not name anyone but pointed out how some criticisms do not help the squad.
"Everyone has got their opinion but the bottom line is we have not won anything as a nation for a long, long time and a lot of these players were part of that as well, so they know how tough it is. It is not digging anyone out," he said.

Kane did not name names, but knowing who he could be referring to was easy.
Former Three Lions Gary Lineker agreed with Kane's points but insisted that it is their job to be critical.
"There was one bit there where he says that we have responsibilities as ex-England players, that we should know better and that we never won anything or words to that effect. Fine, he's absolutely right. But I will say one thing. The last thing in the world we want to be is downbeat and critical," he said.
"We want the England team to perform well on the pitch. The best punditry of all is when England play well."
England's positioning in the Round of 16
England is through to the next round, although they still have one game left. If they beat Slovenia, they can top Group C, earning themselves a better position in the Round of 16.
They will not finish lower than third place in the group.
If they only manage to get a draw and Denmark wins against Serbia, they will split for first and second place on overall goal difference, then overall goals scored, then disciplinary points.
If it is a draw and Denmark loses, they will finish number 1.
