if Saka got injured for example - MGW can be there as a direct replacement and play in his best position
Madueke is the direct like for like though and Tuchel wants runners beyond Kane which MGW wouldn't provide playing there.

I genuinely think he's constructed a very balanced squad for a team that plays his tactics.

Last Euros we had multiple players all filling the same area of the pitch just to squeeze every player of ability in regardless of if it worked or not... I'm really pleased to see a manager not fall in to that same trap for once.

I doubt we'll win it though, regardless of who he picked. The heat will be a huge problem for us, as will the demands of a full English season, and we don't have the best team. I think he's giving us as good a chance as he can though with how he's constructed this squad.
