Bukayo Saka - Misses final PK against Italy Saka had two interceptions, won one tackle and one duel and was dispossessed twice in Sunday's 3-4 loss to Italy on PKs.

Impact Saka was the first attacker off the bench when the coach switched to a more offensive formation, but he did not have a great impact. He got denied by Gianluigi Donnarumma on the final penalty after Jordan Pickford had kept England alive by saving a Jorginho PK. He has not had a great Euro, recording one chance, four crosses and three interceptions in four appearances (three starts). He is primed to put up better numbers with Arsenal.

Nuno Tavares - Signs with Arsenal Nuno has signed a long-term contract with Arsenal away from Portuguese side Benfica.

Impact Nuno isn't expected to have much of a role in his first season with Arsenal, as he's still just 21 and growing his game after spending the last few years at Benfica. For now, he'll serve as the backup to Kieran Tierney at left-back, though given the latter's injury issues, that could lead to starts throughout the season.

In terms of fantasy though Saka hasn't produced much in any of his three starts and is still without a goal or an assist either.

Bukayo Saka - Out against Ukraine Saka (knock) is not in the squad for Saturday's match against Ukraine.

Impact Saka completely misses out Saturday after suffering a knock in training Friday.

Bukayo Saka - Dealing with slight knock Saka is dealing with a slight knock and has to be tested ahead of Saturday's match against Ukraine, according to head coach Gareth Southgate.

Impact Saka has started each of the last two matches, so another start is in play Saturday. That being the case, he doesn't have a shot or chance created in 153 minutes of action in the tournament with most of his fantasy value coming from four fouls drawn. If he can't go, Jack Grealish, Mason Mount and Phil Foden are options to enter the XI.
