Jadon Sancho

[Bruun]

What a cracking goal! And he just seems to glide past players with ease. Exciting prospect.

To the people who watch the youth teams regulary. Is he our most likely prospect to play first team football. More likely than brahim? Tosin?
Our youngsters get rated very highly, and for good reason. But realistically we are aiming to be the best team in the world so unless these youngsters are world class, theyre not going to make it with us.
I dont get to watch the youth team due to location, so keep up the good work on the updates

Obviously nothing is certain,but if he keeps progressing at his current rate then i would think,along with Foden and Brahim(and one or two others from the incredible u18's) his opportunity will come in the not too distant future.

At 16,he has to be one of the very best prospects in world football.

He's making a very good case of being the best 16 year old in world football at the moment. Originally I would have said that Brahim had the best chance of playing regular first team football but Sancho has come on so much this season that it has become a toss up between the 2. Part of me is expecting him to make his debut this season he's been that good but we have to remember he's still 16. He's too good for the U18's and he's usually one of the best players on the pitch in the U23's (Same goes for Diaz), at his current rate of development he might want more regular first team appearances by next season. Like the poster mentions above Sancho, Foden and Brahim are the most likely to play first team football from the U18's, I think Muric and Latibeaudiere will also have a good chance.

Also keep an eye on City's twitter/facebook, they livestream a lot of the U18 home matches nowadays.

I see Hazard as just a shit Sancho to be honest.

Seriously there's not much difference in their game in that they bring the ball to the box and wallop in a generally on target powerful shot. Not much elaborate playmaking so its basic enough. That's why I think he could be ready a lot sooner than Diaz or Foden.

Obviously Hazard has loads of experience and is solid enough to handle regular Prem pushing, shoving, manhandling, etc. So I know they are not on a par .....yet :-).

 

[Mikejl]

Watched the last few live feeds on FB and Sancho is thriving in what to be fair is a fantastically talented bunch of players, no real weak areas. Sanchos workrate is phenomenal & currently he is even overshadowing Diaz, he has that arrogance of youth, a bit of steel about him & prepared to try stuff, would be amazed if we didn't see him on the 1st team bench as a reward, don't think he'd play though unless we were 3/4 up

Future is bright & blue without doubt

Everyone usually focuses on the forwards for youth team players making it at any club but I'd add Angus Gunn in to the mix. He turned 21 just a fortnight ago and I can see him being our 2nd goalie next season and playing the domestic cup games.

If you want to make comparisons,i'd say Sancho is very much in the Bale mould.Brahim is much more similar in style to Hazard.

Sancho is Neymar like technically, with Bale's physique. He will 100% play for our first team at some point. How far he goes then, as ever, depends on ten billion factors including how many chances he gets, or doesn't... there's only so much he can do as a kid. If we fuck it up with foden, sancho and Brahim then we're useless tbh.
