TBH I think that SG made the decision to take both wingers down and sub Tripper and James on when Shaw was sent off. Tripper put his shirt on standing at the line. James was given just a bit time to get ready and came on at next dead ball. It looks really bad to Foden and harsh for his feeling. But I don't think SG is really that wicked... He is just not a good coach and should be replaced sooner than later...I think it’s more to do with the Foden coming on as a substitute in the 68th minute, to be the player taken off in the 81st minute courtesy of Shaw’s idiocy, rather than say Saka who had been on since the start and was blowing out of his arse and giving it away left, right and centre.
I’d say it’s less about his fitness, but more the mental knock it can give a player in those circumstances considering he can’t seem to buy a place in the England starting eleven.
