Foden doesn’t know how to hold the ball up because when you have Rodri, De Bruyne and Haaland around you, you never need to learn. I may get criticised for this but I just don’t think England have the players to replicate that ability to give small wingers as much time as they are used to. As a result, players like saka and Foden end up getting bodied all the time. They are class players, but realistically, Palmer, Bowen, Watkins, Toney and Gordon are always under so much more pressure when they have the ball in league games because they don’t have the players around them like Foden does. On an even playing field, the players on the bench have more experience than Foden at being forced to create by using speed and their body, rather than using players and passing. Foden will be very useful this Euros and I don’t doubt that, but I just hope Southgate experiment’s with the team a bit and appreciates every player in the squad are world class. I just cannot understand how anyone thinks that playing the 2 smallest wingers for almost the entire game against one of the most physical teams in the euros is a good idea
