Clrnc Bellingham is overused even worse. But the stats for Saka don't look good.
Not having a crack, but don't you think it's a bit daft to say all this about … senior minutes? Every other bright young player is playing a match or two a week as well, they're just playing U21s or whatever. Footballers on a professional track at that age play a lot of football.
I do accept senior minutes are tougher, harder, greater pressure and risk, but still. In terms of aggregate wear and tear I think these figures are too partial to be relevant. All they measure is Saka's outstanding maturity as a player of his age (and that of others).
