What's the point of giving him 8 minutes? At least give him the chance to prove something. Saka hasn't done anything this half.
Now he gets to say he's given him a chance to duck criticism that comes his way. Doing the bare minimum: the Gareth Southgate story.

Enough time to make it seem like a normal sub but not enough time for Sancho to make Southgate look like a cockwomble

Southgate is alienating the players. Sancho and Grealish should be playing far more.

Clarke being ridiculously slow to put on likes of Fraser also been poor. He's been decent since he's come on but you needed him at 1-1 to push Croatia back a little as they were massively dominating either side of the McGregor goal.
Not playing Che Adam’s in the first game was also a mistake.

Sancho gets on, combines with Rashford and it turns into a goal (even though ruled out).

Henderson will clearly score the winner in the next round.

Or else a consolation in a 4-1 defeat.
