Bukayo Saka and Marcus Rashford have been the two goalscoring standouts for England so far at the World Cup and now Gareth Southgate has to make the decision as to who will carry the Three Lions through in the knockout rounds. Senegal await, and perhaps one of the two stars will miss out.
Saka started the opening two games of the tournament with contrasting performances, whilst Rashford has seen success both from the start against Wales and off the bench against Iran. From an Arsenal perspective, maybe supporters will want Rashford to get the nod in order for the Gunners’ star boy to be rested ahead of the second half of the season.
In reality, form is very important during tournaments. It was for this reason the England head coach didn’t pick former Gunners transfer target Tammy Abraham.
