Yep I noticed the same with Saka but a new revived Sunderland and Burnley who are tough to play against a deep block is too risky in my opinion, for sure you can not put a 15 year old against thise teams for him to be slapped about like a ragged doll.

He wasn’t slapped against Newcastle or Liverpool. Why would he struggle against bottom table teams?

Newcastle was a friendly and he was literally slapped and elbowed, played 1 min vs Liverpool, all good to put him on for a bit as part of his development in the right game state unless the team has run out if options, but to rely on a 15 year old on a physical man's game is a tad too much. He played against atletico on Wed in the uefa youth Cup for the u21, scored 2 goals but we still lost.
