They’re all good. But aren’t Sancho, Grealish, Foden, and Rashford all better options than Saka? (even if only marginally)

Saka better than Sancho, Grealish.. He must be close to a GOAT at this point
Then the next young Arsenal player will be the ‘star’. Hype their academy up like they have La Masia.
Absolutely.
Villa got their eyes on Saka?
I thought the same. In midfield and up front that bench looks just as good at least
Well, if he's better than the new Ronaldinho then the sky is the limit.Saka better than Sancho, Grealish. He must be close to a GOAT at this point
Calvert-Lewin once again not on the bench again is quite weird.
What’s Neville on about Shaw responding to Poch for
Saka is starting ahead of Sancho. Ahead of Rashford. Ahead of Grealish. It's the correct decision and it's always been my opinion that he's better than all of them and has a higher ceiling too. But Southgate is playing an awful central midfield. Far too defensive as well.

Wonder what is his ceiling..
All of you can keep whining. Saka starts ahead of Sancho, Grealish & Rashford. They will be on the bench while Saka starts.
What absolute garbage
The fact that not a single one of you understands why he starts ahead of all them, says a lot doesn't it? It's the EUROS Semi final, and the manager picks Saka ahead of them. If you can't make sense of that decision, then that's on you. Don't blame others for your pub football intelligence level.
Didn't he bring him through at So'ton?
arrivederci it’s one on one could be very fitting if England do their job tonight.
Wembley is absolutely rocking already.
Bizarre isn’t it. What happens if Kane gets injured? Rashford playing as a CF? Foden as a false 9?
That’s a much better tag line than his current one
Wenger said that Saka probably starts, because he is better defensively. I think there is truth in this, he is the best defensively, but the "worst" attacking wise.
Neville suggesting Southgate is unbiased to where players play domestically 
If Guardiola was manager then maybe your rant would have some weight but Guardiola isn't the manager, Gareth fecking Southgate is
Saka is probably selected so you can switch to a back 3 with little fuss. In fact, you may even start that way.
Stop it.No point arguing this on a United forum. Arsenal fans will say Saka is the best, Manchester fans will say otherwise. I think he fantastic and one of England's brightest talents considering how he pulled Arsenal out the mud last season. A 19 year old kid saving Artetas face goes show his elite mentality.
It was a back 5 in the last game and will be in this game. Rice will drop in between the CB's and Mount and Phillips will play CM with Mount pushing forward more.
It's a shame Bellingham hasn't been given the same faith that Pedri has had for Spain. No reason whatsoever people wouldn't have spoken about Bellingham the same as they have done with Pedri
There’s a reason only Arsenal fans would say this
Ouch
The mind boggles, it really does
Hes starting because of his defensive contribution, not because of what he can do on the ball. That sits wrongly with people when you play 2 defensive mids, a #10 due to their work rate, enforce conservative tactics all despite being the more talented team in just about every position on the pitch.
Southgate is a pragmatist. Saka is the best defensively and has some quality in attacking areas. Denmark are strongest attacking wise down the right hand side. That's the balance that he's gone for.
Mount keeps his place again yet has been largely disappointing this tournament
Oh I've just seen a shot of Johnson in an England shirt, he looks like a slob.
So i wonder how many times the camera will show the few denmark fans this time
This will be juicy - hoping for an early goal :-)
I have no problem with this at all. Southgate has got us this far doing it his way. I've grown to trust his preferences.
How many are in the stadium? It looks packed on TV
Saka is obviously a really talented young player, but I think Sancho does everything he does but with an additional goal and assist threat. The numbers support that.
Who cares about Arsenal right now. I’m talking about Saka and how brilliant he’s been for club and country. Problem is with rose tinted glasses you’ll hype up Sancho last game who did absolutely nothing in the second half. Walker hardly passed to himThere’s a reason only Arsenal fans would say this
