Intro:

England players Gary Cahill and Michael Carrick look ahead to their Euro 2016 qualifier against Lithuania on Friday in front of a sold out Wembley Stadium.

Script:

SOUNDBITE: (English) Gary Cahill, England defender (on Harry Kane joining the England squad):

"Really good. Really good. I've played against him three times this season and he's a real handful, he's a fantastic talent, he's not just someone who holds the ball up he can run behind, he can hold the ball up, he's got two good feet. For me he's got all the attributes but...And to score a hat-trick on your first...leading up to the first meet up is ideal, his confidence must be sky high at the minute and he's had a terrific season. Obviously respecting the fact he's still a young boy and it's his first time in the full squad. I think it's always a little bit daunting but as I said his confidence must be sky high and he's a real top player."

SOUNDBITE: (English) Gary Cahill, England defender (on playing in front of a sold out Wembley):

"It's fantastic for us as players to know five days or so before the game it's all sold out. It's fantastic for us to go and know that at Wembley, it's always a pleasure to play there, but in front of a full stadium, full crowds and the atmosphere we can generate there is great. So we're looking forward to that and the supports been fantastic. I think that's encouraging in terms of how we've been playing as late and the results we've been getting as late, we've sold out the stadium. So again, amazing support and hopefully we can put on a performance for the fans."

SOUNDBITE: (English) Michael Carrick, England midfielder (on Harry Kane's performances this season)

"The progress he's made has been sensational, really, right from the start of the season, to the level that he's at know, he's gone up two or three levels. The thing that's impressed me most is probably as the spot light's grown on him, as expectation has grown with it, he seems to have grown and his performances have improved and improved. That's a really good sign. It by no means looks like this is a one off season. He looks like the real deal."
