I’d say Saka was more versatile Bales. Can’t see Foden playing wing back for example

Really man? Saka has played everywhere apart from DM and CB, to a high level.

A tractor is more versatile than an F1 car but I'd probably still choose the F1 car for an F1 race cos it's better than the tractor at the main job I want it to do.

Where do they rank in expected versatility?

Maybe Robbing? That said what I have noticed last few games I've seen Foden in is his work rate, been impressed at how much running he puts in, not as fast as Saka but perhaps he could play there?

Some players, these two included could play just about anywhere, DC excluded
,Stevie G was one who could have slipped in just about anywhere on the pitch for distance imo

Aye, Rooney is another.

Depends how much stock people put into that on a personal level I guess. I’ve a huge amount of respect for it myself.

Yup, players like them are simply Uber competitive and have a real edge to them, obvs they will have a preferred and "best" position but I'd always want someone like them in the team

At this level there shouldn't be much emphasis put on whether a player can also play in other positions like left back. Pick the player that is best at the position you want them to play. Or you'd end up picking Milner over Haaland as your striker.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Either way you're going to be delighted with your choice. It's like when you've finished your dinner at a nice place and you have a choice between a creme brulee or a cheesecake or a brownie. You're gonna have a great time whatever so it's down to personal taste

Yeah but what if you preferred the taste of one as food, but the other could also be worn as a hat, so was more versatile, do you go with the tastier food, or the less tasty but also could be a hat food, for your dinner? That's all people are wanting to determine here.

That's a tough one. I do get your point that Saka is probably more likely to score all the time. Could I eat the creme brulee custard before using the caramelized sugar layer as a hat?

Saka is more versatile anyway so it doesn’t matter.

I think the point is that you could maybe eat the dessert that you prefer first, and then if you need the 2nd dessert cos you are still hungry and your first dessert has melted, or it has started raining and the hat now seems very useful, then sub on Foden.

Yeah but if your first choice of dessert is so much better on the right side of the table that moving him to your placemat reduces the flavour but you have another dessert that's just as tasty whether it's on your lap or nearly getting knocked off by the waitress as she walks past I know what I'd choose. The cheesecake, obvs.

Saka’s nickname is Little Chilli, perfect for a nacho hat.

For City I agree and I’d have Foden every time. England currently, probably Saka.

Didn't know you were a farmer.

I think Saka is a wonderful player. He is without doubt one of the best players in the PL right now.

So is Foden. Foden has been managed superbly at City, right from when he joined as a kid. There’s a video on YouTube that talks about his development, how he has been developed, and how highly regarded he is within the club.

I would absolutely want Saka at City. But I wouldn’t if it meant sacrificing Foden. I suspect Arsenal fans would feel exactly the same in reverse.

England has two wonderful talents in these two players, and has them for many years to come. Others have posted other players such as Rice and Bellingham - two other players who are fantastic talents - who can form a formidable midfield/attacking midfield for England. Exciting times potentially with these four players in the international side. Hopefully they are all managed by the England coaches as well as they have clearly been by their club coaches.

Nice thought but we all know that's not going to happen
