Arsenal forward, Bukayo Saka, is expected to start for England when they take on Senegal in the last 16 of the 2022 World Cup on Sunday.
Saka bagged a brace in their 6-2 victory over Iran in the first game. But he did not find the net against the USA in the next match.
The 21-year-old Arsenal winger was then an unused substitute in the 3-0 win over Wales, with goalscorers Phil Foden and Marcus Rashford both preferred.
But Saka will now make his return to the starting line-up against Senegal on Sunday, as Gareth Southgate’s team look to make the quarter-finals for the third successive major tournament.
“What Southgate has got with his four wide forwards – Rashford and Foden playing the last game with Saka and Sterling playing the two games before – I don’t think there’s a huge difference with what he goes with.
“The fact he can chop and change shows how much strength in depth he’s got in those wide areas. I just felt that Foden and Rashford were the right ones to go with, just because they were so confident in the last game, but then again you go to the first game and you think of how good Sterling and Saka were in that Iran game.
“I’m not shocked or surprised with what he does in the wide areas because we’ve got so much quality there. It’s the one area in the squad where there is real competition for places.”
