I think it shows what a mess Southgate made of the squad selection that his left-back choices aren't actually left-backs.
If I were him then I'd be tempted to pick Gomez over Trippier for the last group game.
Anthony Gordon's been playing most of the season in front of Dan Burn, who's similarly limited as an offensive force.
 
From the BBC live thingy:
60 mins:
Poland 1-1 Austria
Conor Coady: Robert Lewandowski, what an incredible player to be able to bring on.
67 mins: Poland 1-2 Austria.
78 mins: Poland 1-3 Austria.

Rangnick two years in the job and he’s got Austria playing like that.

England eight years with Southgate and well…

Bloke should be tried for war crimes to football.
 
These two could have played together as part of the Holy Roman Empire. Although the Austro-Hungarian Empire might have held more appeal for Austria.
Although when the Turks invaded Vienna in the 17th century, Leopold defeated them so I expect there woukd be no Austrian- Ottoman alliance. Turkey did conquer the Balkans so Mitrovic would get a game for the Ottoman Empire.

I've often thought that Spurs fans are uniquely positioned to understand the national team set up more than most.

Illogical decisions, series of poor managers, no clear system, and years of underachievement relative to what exists on paper.

The dictionary entry for both sides would be identical.

Except Spurs have slightly over achieved relative to their income.
