Got a last minute invite to Wembley for the Italy/Austria game. Was a bit of a snoozefest until extra time which was great. Think starting Jorginho and Veratti in the midfield was very ‘Rice and Phillips’ and Italy struggled to create against a well organised Austria until they made changes. Insigne is such a frustrating player, played left but only ever wants to use his right foot. Made him very easy to defend against.
Arnautovic is a nob. The bloke they replaced him with was much better. Alaba still good, though clearly aging. The blond no23 for Austria was also a really tidy player. Paid 6.5o for a can of Heineken so truly I have had the full UEFA/Wembley experience.

Yep Italy look falable after 100% in the group stages. Starting to get interesting now. England's pragmatic approach will be tested.
