Just got done seeing El Classico and this is making me sad. Haaland just won the treble with Man City last season, Bellingham carrying Real on his back at just 20 and there’s Sancho: banned from Man Utd.

I don’t follow the Bundesliga that much but I think Sancho was the best player at Dortmund back then. Even Haaland said he looked up to Sancho.

There has been a pattern with world class players coming to Man Utd and just played awful there. Not saying Sancho was not at fault but when there’s a pattern, that needs to be addressed.

    1. He signed for an absolute shambles of a club: He’s a LW suited to a style of possession and short passing who we signed as a RW in a counter-attacking team.

    Then we signed the roaming statue formerly known as Cristiano Ronaldo in the same window which meant we weren’t a counter-attacking team either and suddenly at RW he was competing with the homegrown breakout prospect Greenwood, and at LW Rashford, Pogba, Martial, and Ronaldo’s tendency to drift out wide leaving the team without a striker to try and assist.

    Oh and until August 2022 we didn’t actually have a functioning midfield to even get the ball to the attackers. Still don’t really. Also for half of that season one of his attacking partners was Wout Weghorst.

    1. He’s clearly not the model professional those two seem to be. His natural talent allowed him to stand out early, but the timekeeping etc has caught up and without a personality transplant he’ll never hit the heights of those two. Without point 1 he would be a lot closer though
