Robert Lewandowski says he felt special after joining Bayern München from Dortmund in 2014, because the move meant he would finally get to play for a big club, thus hinting that he doesn't see BVB as one.

The 31-year-old recently signed a contract extension until 2023 with the Bavarians.

Their opponents in Group A could almost have been hand-picked for a comfortable passage by manager Gareth Southgate and the Football Association. There is a danger, however, that lies in brushing aside such impotent opposition with monotonous regularity. Bulgaria, ranked 60th in the world by Fifa,  were dismissed 4-0 at Wembley,  while Kosovo, at 120th, are next up at St Mary's in Southampton on Tuesday.
