Louis Saha warns France over 'unplayable' Marcus Rashford ahead of quarter-final clash

Speaking to the Mirror, Louis Saha said: "I really like Marcus Rashford, you know he can be a starter, he's such a talent and threat. When Rashford has the eye of the tiger, he's unplayable and at the same level as Kylian Mbappe.

"I love Harry Kane, but Rashford is just a humongous talent and I love to see him at this level. Kane is the best player, but Rashford is my favourite player in the England squad because of his style and I really enjoy watching him play.

"Rashford is more complete, but it he doesn't fit well in every game plan. There will be times where fresh legs are needed. Bukayo Saka is very good positionally, but Rashford has more ability and physicality, and he can score headers too.

"You can see there's good balance and good spirit in the England team which has given the English fans and media a lot of hope. Everything is gelling well, there have been no controversies which is great to see."

Rashford scored three goals in three group stage games at the 2022 World Cup but Gareth Southgate trusted Saka for the Round of 16 clash against Senegal last week.

The Arsenal man is likely to retain his place in the starting XI for the quater-final match against France on Saturday but Rashford is almost guaranteed to feature in some capacity.
