I genuinely forgot. Hope that doesn't come back to bite me...
Not yet sadly, still in the Thursday night cup.
3 seasons in a row with no trophies.
The first time since 86-89
He’s a flavour of the month Aaron Lennon level player,
" No value in the market "Little wanker Sancho, had him down as a wrong un from the day he started kicking up a fuss as a youth team player. I wish him nothing but the worst.
He’s a flavour of the month Aaron Lennon level player, decent but not special. Happy to see those desperate cvnts splurge an absurd 100m on him in a depressed market especially since we take a big commission.
We wouldn’t have decided that we could afford to let him go if he was exceptional. Price tag is an indicator of the buyer’s desperation rather than his ability - Maguire was 80m - is he almost as exceptional ?I know that it's United signing him, but this level of delusion is not healthy.
He's an exceptional player, he's going to United, it's not that big a deal, get over it without embarrassing yourself by claiming a kid who's scored more goals at 20 then Aaron Lennon managed in a 20 year career is the same level.
We didn't take him from Watford because he was shit, we didn't offer him more than any other teenager we've ever had because he's shit. He's not moving for £100m because he's shit.
If City and Pep had their way, Sancho would be a City player right now, so don't go through this nonsense of pretending every player United sign is shit. We really don't need to.

Yes we did. We decided not to meet his demands nor give him the assurances he sought ergo we let him go. You slow on the uptake ?We didn't "decide we could afford to let him go". We offered him 30k/week - far more than we've ever offered any teenager - and he went and signed for Dortmund on €20k/week + guaranteed game time.
So there goes that genius explanation. City did absolutely everything they could to keep him.

Where’s the lie ? It’s just common sense, he either wanted more $$ or some assurances regarding appearances - why else would a player leave ? The one other plausible cause being personal reasons ie family issues or irreconcilable differences with staff (which I’m assuming was not the case here )You repeating a lie about how Sancho left the club doesn't make it true, you do know that?

How do you know unless you were privy to the negotiations ? On the balance of probability it’s more likely that he wasn’t given the assurances he sought rather than that he was given those assurances but didn’t believe Pep. Presumably such assurances if agreed upon by Pep would’ve been inserted in the spoilt little fucker’s proposed new contract so scepticism on Sancho’s part would have been misplaced.He didn't believe the assurances he was given, probably because that entire summer the club was very publicly trying to sign Alexis Sanchez for a club record fee.
That's not the same as us not giving him what he asked.

Fast, direct players all have a field day over there and haven't generally looked as good anywhere else. Even dilrosun and that lad from Everton have looked great there. Sancho is levels above them but I'm far from convinced he's special, no better than dembele who left for a similar amount and flopped badly at barcaHe is not a top player , he may well become one . I have watched a lot German football and apart from Bayern rags it's championship level
The media is interesting on the Sanchez deal.
Inter won’t pay a fee and will take on his FULL wages.
Of course they will, no-one else would be allowed to pay their wages if they are employed by Inter.
Inter are paying him around 8 million a year for 3 years, he was on 25 million for the next 2.
It is only a foot note in some reports that Sanchez will receive a pay out from United.
However the reality is this will be a huge amount, I think we’re talking 20-30 million and will probably be one of if not the largest ever pay off a player will have ever got.
That’s the real story here, but it won’t be printed.
