Arsene Wenger reckons Jadon Sancho won't keep his place in England's line-up for their semi-final clash against Denmark.
The new Manchester United winger was handed his first start of Euro 2020 in the quarter-final against Ukraine as Gareth Southgate's men claimed a 4-0 victory.
Sancho has had to bide his time to get a chance as he was used sparingly in the group stage but took full advantage of his rare start as he put in an impressive performance in Rome.
Southgate now has some big decisions to make in regards to his team selection against the Danes.
Bukayo Saka missed the Ukraine win through injury, but should be fit for the final four tie and could reclaim his starting spot from Sancho. Phil Foden and Jack Grealish are also options for the England manager.

And former Arsenal coach Wenger feels Sancho will be left out despite his excellent display on Saturday night, but Jordan Henderson could come into his side after getting on the scoresheet as a substitute.
He told beIN SPORTS: "He (Gareth Southgate) had a long process of thinking because he learned from the World Cup. I would say they look more stable defensively. He’s still up for going forward. His team looks for the perfect solution.
“I’m not sure Sancho will play in the semi-final. He has 10 players he knows he will play.
“Personally, I like Henderson when he comes on because, from deep midfield, he plays forward, and very good balls. I think he could be important in the semi-final.
“He [Southgate] has learned a lot about his players and he has learned himself a lot and that comes good now.
"I’m convinced now that they will be difficult to stop. They go home to London, they play a semi-final at Wembley and it will be difficult to stop them going to the final."
Wenger thinks the reason why Sancho got the nod over Grealish against Ukraine was that Southgate wanted to use his "incisive dribbling" to exploit their opponent'ss narrow set-up.
He said: "Many people ask why Jack Grealish doesn't play. I think Jadon Sancho is a mix between Grealish and a winger.
"He is a very creative player, similar to Grealish, but he is more of an incisive dribbler and that's why maybe he got the priority tonight."
Wenger was full of praise for England after the 4-0 rout and reckon it was the perfect match for the Three Lions as they were able to rest key players ahead of the semi-final.
He added: "It was a perfect night for English football. They didn't concede a goal, qualified for the next round and were able to rest important players."
