Tottenham striker Harry Kane has urged calm from fans over his England Euros form.
England were booed off after the disappointing 0-0 draw with Scotland at Wembley on Friday night, but Kane insists he has no fitness concerns, that he remains unflustered by talk of his future at Spurs and that he has no issue with being substituted in the 74th minute after having had so little impact.
Asked what his message to booing fans was, Kane said: "Just to be patient, to be calm. We're not going to play perfect every game. The main thing is that we as a group are in a good mind space and good place.
"No one's panicking here. No one is thinking we've got to change the way we do stuff. It's a matter of just improving and working on a few bits that we know we can get better at and hopefully taking that into what will be the business end now.
"From our point of view, inside the group, it's time to be calm. The first objective was to qualify. If you turn the results around and we drew against Croatia and beat Scotland and had four points, I don't think there would be too many arguments or too many disappointed with that.
"Of course we could have played a lot better on Friday night but these games aren't easy. Scotland are playing for their life in this tournament. They've got a great team togetherness, so you don't just turn up and walk over teams. You have to play to your best ability to win those games. We didn't quite do that but we didn't lose which was important.
"The mood among the boys and maybe the experienced boys is to be calm. We're in a good spot. We've got a chance to win on Tuesday which puts us top of the group and that opens up the knockout stage which is when things get a bit more ruthless, almost exciting and it's a chance to really go on the big stage and show what we've got."
Despite his lacklustre showing, Kane says he has no issues with the ankle injury that interrupted his season and dismissed suggestions by Roy Keane that talk of wanting to leave Spurs had sapped him of energy.
"No, absolutely not,' he said. 'To be honest, all my focus is on how I can help this team and how we can be successful in this tournament. I understand from a media point of view there is speculation but I am fully focused on the job we have here.
"Many times I've gone two games without scoring in my career. In tournament football, it gets highlighted a lot more and there's a lot talk about it. I'm not someone who gets too high or too low. I know the chances will come with the players we have got. And when they do I will be more than capable of putting them away."
