Jadon Sancho

[bluenova]

I read more that he can maybe forgive the Jadon Sancho we see in the clip with "little Foden", but it's almost impossible to forgive the Jadon Sancho of today.

I wouldn't actually be that harsh on him.

The time out he was given last season suggests mental health issues, and it's not really up to us to judge that from the outside.

 

[SWP's back]

Nah, that’s harsh on Cancelo. At least he’s talented and one of the best attacking full backs in the world.

Sancho is like Barton. Decent, but thinks he’s better than he is and has an ego that writes cheques that his talent can’t cash.

Cancelo is nothing if the sort, he was responsible for more individual errors leading to goals than any other players during the Pep era and whilst Barton’s a bellend, he carried us for two seasons.

Directors of football at Juve, City Bayern and now Barca disagree with that.

He’s a flawed character, but one of the best full backs in the world.

 

[decmancity]

I guess the acid test would be if Dortmund would have him back for £30m or so.

Nah they are busy developing the likes of Jamie Bynoe-Gittens.

If he was that good then someone would have chosen to actually buy him.

Ps have you seen some of the gash Barca have signed.

Yes. None of which are Joey Barton. If you take your blue tinted specs off, you’ll see that one is borderline world class and the other was a borderline journeyman who was most famous for speaking with a shit French accent, for punching Tevez, Dabo and the bloke outside of McDonalds, as well as stubbing a cigar out in Tandy’s eye.

Nobody wants to pay Cancelo’s mega wages. Him signing that contract a year ago is now a millstone for us.

Sometimes he is a wonderful full back but often goes MIA and not a character you want fighting for your cause.

Certainly not with a serious gene defect and attitude issues

 

[Colin Bells Boots]

I'm sure it would have surfaced at some later point, but on reflection it was a blessing that he showed his behavioural traits when Pep was trying to persuade him to sign at age 17.

I always thought he was far too confident of his own ability and ended up running into blind alleys when with the youth team, so wasn't arsed when he left.

Never seen anything worth what the rags paid, but they have form for these types of transfers.

For Joey Barton punching Tevez and kneeing Aguero we should be thankful. Whilst it was worth the admission money just to watch David Silva it was worth the admission money to watch Joey Barton implode on that special day.
PS We missed his style of play, not the person, when he left.

I wasn’t even trying to dig Barton out that much. He did help us, but in the footballing world, Barton is a nobody, whereas Cancelo has won lots of trophies despite being a mardarse and a dick.

And there was me thinking it was substance abuse…

 

[SkyBlueCanuck]

Let that short video clip be an instructive lesson to all current and future City academy starlets.

 

[Ardnaree]

At Dortmund he was averaging a goal/assist per game.

Currently he is averaging a goal/assist every 4 games.

I don't agree with this theory that the Bundesliga is a fundamentally inferior league.

De Bruyne, Bellingham and Haaland have proved this.

It is an inferior league. That doesn't mean there aren't some very good players playing in it though.

 

[Johnny Mars Bar]

For the record I'd just like to say that even when this pick was at Dortmund and every man and his dog was blowing smoke up his arse, I said all along that he was flattering to deceive and it'll all come undone once he left Dortmund.

Just saying like.

Make lemonade.

It probably means that Dortmund are significantly better than United.

I’ve said this before, when he’s up against a weak fullback he’ll take the piss unmercifully.

When the fullback is better he shits the bed and goes missing.

He was like that in our youth team, I thought he might have changed, he hasn’t.

What was it someone said about Barton?

"If he was twice as good as he is, he still wouldn’t be half as good as HE THINKS he is."

It looks like the same applies to Jaded.
