    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.

    Austria shows what happens when you centre the ball from the wings

    Great cross, great header.

    This attacking thing that teams do is quite enjoyable. Maybe England should try it.

    Now now, settle down.

    Next thing you know they'll be demanding we drive on the right and provide a decent education system.

    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.

    That's pretty much Poland out, right?

    I'm sure their charming fans will be okay with that...

    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.
