I get that. See 'finishers' in eggball. My (claret & blue tinted) view is that Grealish is more likely to pick a pass to unlock the Italian defence who I think will cope more comfortably with the Sterling and Saka/Sancho pace threat. But certainly an argument for tiring them out for an hour first. As I've said all tournament, I still don't think there is a need for both Rice and Phillips and would have preferred to see one more attack-minded player throughout - Rice/Phillips, Mount/Bellingham + Grealish/Foden would have been my midfield.
But hey - we're in the final so ¯\(ツ)/¯
