Tony Adams demands England captaincy change as he brands Gareth Southgate a "good loser"

England legend Tony Adams has called for Harry Kane to be stripped of the Three Lions captaincy as he urged Gareth Southgate to bring in an experienced coach.

Southgate's side crashed out of the World Cup with a quarter-final defeat to France, though it was a performance to be proud of. But Adams believes it is England who should be featuring in the semi-final against Morocco on Wednesday.
