Jason introduces the Mount Rushmore concept — four presidents carved into a mountain, adapted here as the four greatest in a given field — and asks William to pick the all-time English footballers. William approaches it with evident pleasure and difficulty. David Beckham is first and firm: 'probably the best crosser of the ball I've ever seen and probably ever will see.' [1] — Prince William "David Beckham is in. Bobby Charlton spans the generations. Harry Kane is closing in on Lineker's goal record. Prince William's Mount Rushmo…" 18:50 Gary Lineker and Harry Kane are almost interchangeable in his mind — Kane is on the verge of overtaking Lineker's goal record and could end up the greatest striker England has ever produced. Steven Gerrard and Frank Lampard follow for midfield greatness, then Wayne Rooney for the generation William grew up watching most passionately, and finally Bobby Charlton to honour the historic greats. Jason asks if William just knighted everyone he named — to which William replies: 'I tried to, yeah.'
David Beckham is in. Bobby Charlton spans the generations. Harry Kane is closing in on Lineker's goal record. Prince William's Mount Rushmore is a greatest-hits of English football history — and he nearly couldn't stop at four.
