Jadon Sancho

People can wax lyrical about him as much as they want, ultimately though his attitude is his Achilles heel... all the talent in the world doesn't mean you've made it!

Thanks.

While Sancho does appear very cocky i really don't see it negatively affecting his future,he loves his football too much and he knows he is very,very good at it.

I think being a faux gangster was more important to Morrison.
 
Well harsh comparing Sancho to Morrison. By all accounts Sancho is actually quite a polite, nice lad. I know people who have relatives who went school with him at Bedes and they all said that while he was not the brightest, he was actually a smiley friendly lad. Yeah, an ego perhaps, but he's not a little criminal like Morrison actually was and probably still is.

edit - i actually met Sancho a couple of times too in passing. first time he actually let on to me at the met station near asda (just recognised me from twitter as i was tweeting a lot about the academy games then etc) and he seemed friendly enough.

Well said.

I don't believe Maffeo will be in the team ahead of Danilo next season; he'll probably be loaned out again or even sold with a buy back clause. Some of you might need to prepare for that kind of disappointment.


On Sancho: He's getting games so if it's first team football he wanted then he's done the right thing making the move. We can't be too sure whether it would have benefited him to stay or go as far as development is concerned. But I may as well be happy for him, we could buy him back one day!

Of course he made the right move. I said as much when he left. And I siddid need to see the results to know this. As painful as some might find it, we can't be great at everything.

If you are a rising super player looking to jump to greater level and a chance at team successful, choose City over everyone.

If you are a young player looking for the best team for young players to get a chance, you'd be hard pressed to find any better than Dortmund.

So, yeah Sancho made the absolute right decision.

He might have played ahead of Diaz or Foden though, as he is a genuine wide man.
 
More talents will be leaving the academy, do not be surprised, we also lost Bobby Duncan. With Diaz, Foden and Nmecha we are seeing them slowly being introduced, it's just the way it is with how high our level is. Foden and Diaz getting minutes here and there is fine for now as long as that increases over time and the club don't spend to buy players in their position.

Sancho definitely made the right decision, Dortmund are actually going to rely on him. Before he got injured he would have played every game for Dortmund, that's how well he has started.
 
I hate to break it to everyone that wants to see him fail but I fully expect him to play well at Dortmund for three years or so and then bought back by one of the big six. Think this lad's going to have a fine career.

Agree.

Plus, if Pulisic gets bought in the summer he will be an even greater influence on the team.

As long as he keeps his head down he will be a world class player by the age of 21/22.

It seems he still hasn't got another club, that seems a bit odd for such a talent, he will have to be careful that no top class training doesn't do him harm in the long run.
 
Any chance we put a buy back in.

Certain teams are great for developing players, Athletico, Monaco, Dortmund are where the best young players will get game time and ultimately if good enough a move to an elite club.

Seems to have worked for him but we have obviously done a lot right for him and need to learn what we can do not to lose these players in the future.

The dippers have a Youth transfer ban so I'd guess he's waiting until that ends or he's old enough to 'legally' join the cult.

That would make perfect sense then, surprised he was even at our club to start with and not with them lot from the off.

For Sancho ?

I believe we do have a buy back and future percentage if they sell him elsewhere, not sure of the numbers though, I just read it earlier tonight but not sure on which site I read it, hell it could have even been on here, I am very tired as an excuse :)
