Magic Morgan adding Gazzmatazz to Lions

- JEREMY CROSS

MORGAN ROGERS has done what some others would be scared to do - and welcomed comparisons with England great Paul Gascoigne.

Rogers inspired England to a stunning five-goal thrashing of Serbia in Belgrade on Tuesday night.

The Aston Villa attacking midfielder revelled in the No.10 role Thomas Tuchel handed him, producing some sublime twists and turns, clever flicks and driving runs.

His display was so reminiscent of what Gazza (inset) used to produce on the international stage that pundit Roy Keane likened Rogers to the Three Lions legend.

And while the 23-year-old is keen to keep his feet on the ground, Rogers admitted such comparisons did make him feel good.

He said: "That's some compliment, especially coming from him and who he's comparing me to.

"I've seen clips of him (Gazza). He was an iconic player, and one that you watch clips of in the archives.
