Apologies, my comments weren’t meant to come across as snide. I am merely stating that Ings has more goals this season and therefore stats alone can be misleading.

I have already stated that I have always felt that Sane was treated differently by Pep than other players including Sterling. Maybe it was tough love, maybe it was something else but it was clear something wasn’t quite right between them. People can disagree with me, I’m fine with that, I just think Sane has more to his game than Sterling.

Fair enough I over reacted there then, sorry. No doubt it's fine margins btw, I am gutted to lose him.
 
Top talent but his bottom level can be shocking at times. Pep didn't trust him in the run in last season and we won the treble. That was the best 2nd half of any season in the big leagues ever: 18 wins from 19 games. We can do fine without Sane. Watch us win another treble in August :)
 
If he was doing it week in, week out I would agree with you. When was the last time Sterling did that prior to the Newcastle game?

Remember the all important winner that Sane got against Liverpool last year? Sterling doesn’t score that, instead he tries to finish with his left foot, kicks his right foot, falls over and it’s a goal kick to Liverpool and we lose the title. :-)

It’s team game Stones clearance of the line that made Sane the hero after scoring a cracker!
 
Whether there was a deflection or not the ball stayed in a straight line and there was no chance Allisson was stopping that shot.
I know I never said it wasn't going in. I even acknowledged that a couple of pages ago. I'm only pointing out I strongly believe it was deflected.

Good point. Were not so far behind the dippers because we missed Leroy. It was Laportes injury and missing Kompany
 
The point is he’s taken a step back career wise.
He is going to a club where he is clearly going to be the main man from a club where he was and would deservedly remain a squad player.

The main man? That would be great in an attack that today is driven by 34 goal/4assist man - Lewandowski and 8 goals/21 assist man - Müller. In difference to 2013 when the wingers were the main show today that central duo is the main attraction (it already was in Pep's last season at Bayern).

But best winger would be fine and should not be a big obstacle if he is not as injury prone and consistent in his form.

He is going to a club were he is much more in the focus than he ever has been before - on and off the pitch. He is not the most outgoing person that can play with the media so that will not be that easy for him.

He landed on Oberpfaffenhoffen about an hour ago (Sky and BILD) filmed it - and arrived at FC Bayern training ground 10 minutes ago where he will have the first part of his medical tonight.

No messing around then.
