England manager Gareth Southgate said he is willing to put his reputation on the line to back Harry Maguire but that the defender's place in the squad will become complicated if he continues to sit out games at club level.
Poland will like their chances of advancing out of the group phase, a feat not achieved since 1986, but they will need their talisman Robert Lewandowski to be firing on all cylinders.
Gareth Southgate has vowed he will continue to pick Harry Maguire for England as there is currently no one better to take his place and insists he did not feel ‘sore’ after the 4-0 loss to Hungary in June.
England manager Gareth Southgate believes Italy are just as strong as when they won the European Championship last year despite Roberto Mancini's side missing out on qualification for this year's World Cup in Qatar.

Italy coach Roberto Mancini says England remain “one of the best teams in the world” despite their two recent defeats to Hungary.
BERLIN: Germany’s World Cup preparations have been disrupted by the coronavirus, forcing coach Hansi Flick to improvise for tournament warmup games against Hungary and England. Captain Manuel Neuer and his Bayern Munich teammate Leon Goretzka were forced to leave the team’s hotel Wednesday after positive tests for COVID-19, while Borussia Dortmund midfielder Julian Brandt left with flu-like symptoms after testing negative for the virus. It’s an unwelcome reminder for Flick that the pandemic is not over and could yet play a role in Germany’s fortunes at the World Cup, which begins in Qatar in just under two months.
Roberto Mancini said on Thursday that he is not letting Italy's injury crisis worry him before the Nations League visit of England, a team he says are one of the world's best. Mancini lost midfielders Marco Verratti, Sandro Tonali, Lorenzo Pellegrini and Matteo Politano in the lead up to Friday's League A, Group 3 match at the San Siro, one of the European champions' last until next year, because they failed to qualify for the upcoming World Cup in Qatar. He told reporters on Thursday that AC Milan's Tonali would miss the England match and Monday's trip to Budapest to face group leaders Hungary as he "wasn't in great condition" when he arrived at the Azzurri's Coverciano training centre.
