Jadon Sancho

Time will tell.

Considering Sancho has already got England caps (unlike Pennant) and is only 6 goals shy of Pennants career total, despite playing 367 fewer professional games, "Time" was a few months ago.

More fun Pennant stats include the fact Sancho already has more top division league goals (16) than Pennant (13) despite playing 142 fewer games.
 
Pedants corner.

No-one disputes what Sancho has achieved at such a young age or can predict what he will have achieved at 25 or 30. My point is other promising youngsters have crashed by that age and there are many areas where he needs to improve to realise his potential.
 
*Apologies if there is already a thread or it shouldn’t be here but anyway

what’s everyone’s thoughts on the kid, he’s in shit hot form this season and sadly it’s Looking ever likely Leroy is going. Sancho a perfect replacement? Would people be happy to see him come back. I read we do have a buy back option but I have my doubts on that.
 
The consensus is that he is one of the very best young players in Europe but you'll get 30% of posters on here who refuse to have him back because he left to get game time.

Fair fucks to him. Did what he wanted, whether it be for playing time, money or whatever else.
He could have made a lot of money staying here and playing in the academy. So that's just a bitter spin on things.

I wouldn't refuse to have him back, I just don't think he'd choose to come back here.
 
Worth a bump



What is more is that Foden’s doing it in Sancho’s position as well.

It'd be so sweet if Sancho's sell-on fee was also used to sign haarland so in effect his move has resulted in his team losing their best player to the team that Sancho felt he was/knew better than. Please make this happen...

Are you really that bitter?

From the outside looking in two completely different characters. Going to Dortmund would have suited Sancho’s personality where as someone like Foden seems to prefer the trappings of home.

One player is ripping it up in Peps side, won a host of medals, plsying for the club he supports and another is one of Europes hottest properties, with plenty of experience, played in front of 80k each week and represented his country. Sounds like two success stories to me.
 
Shame he was injured, would have been good to see what level he is at. His numbers at Dortmund are inflated because hes playing against shite most weeks so up against Walker or Zinchenko would have given us a better idea of where he is at.

Yeah but imagine them either side of Kev. Two home grown superstars that could be engines main stays for the next decade. Sancho would hardly have been a failure had he stayed.

To be fair Sancho was hardly home grown, he was poached from Watford and played for us for 2 years, he is hardly one of us.

He wanted his chance but Pep did not give it him, he went to play for a top German side and has been an outstading success, good luck to the guy.
