Jadon Sancho

[yerwot?]

Be good if sancho said he would never ever come back, and end this fukn tedious trolling that keeps polluting Bm,by posters who clearly have an agendagainst the management. Clear as day and boring with it jfo

 

[Colin Bells Boots]

He's gone, we got a transfer fee, end of story surely ?

He didn't help his cause due to his behaviour whilst at the club in my opinion , but he was 17 and convinced he could do better by moving .

Good luck to him, but I doubt he would be getting all this hype in the media if he hadn't " turned us down ".

 

[dannyboy29]

Clearly Pep rated Diaz higher. Judging by his past results with young players im happy to give him the benefit of the doubt on this occasion.

 

[Thaksinssoldier]

We were also told Pep and Txiki considered Laporte as "persona non grata" yet they spent £57m on him eleven months ago.

You weren't told that by either person. Pep, however has publicly made his comments about Sancho "he does not want to be here. Maybe when the next manager is here".

Clear as day.

Now that Sterling's signed up for another 5 years, Sane's close to extended, Mahrez has only just signed and Bernardo's more than capable of playing out wide, we're well stocked on the wings for the foreseeable future. Subject to one of them leaving, I cannot see us going for anyone else for at least the next 2-3 years (but obviously football can change quickly).

I think that our best hope is that someone comes in with a monumental offer and we benefit from our sell on clause we have with Dortmund. I would not be remotely surprised if that's United in a year or two. Chelsea are also a strong contender if Hazard were to leave.

We dropped the ball with Sancho, he's going to be an incredible player and we just have to live with it. Hopefully it will give the club the kick up the arse it needed when it comes to our star academy players.

Sancho reminded me a little of Sturridge last night, lots of showy feet but no end product.

 

[hcblue95]

We made a mistake with him. Some people can't criticise or take any criticism of the club, but the pathway from youth team to first team leaves a lot to be desired.

Don't think we dropped the ball, you as good as say it yourself there was no obvious route into the first team any time soon all the players in front of him are here for the long haul.

Some you win some you lose, got a fee for him that is all that counts, it is what the academy was set up for. How many sold and loaned out this year 50 +. We cant keep them all, we cant even keep the good ones we will however try to keep the exceptional ones. I trust City know what they are doing

I don't think we made a mistake. Sancho did what he thought was best for him, we pocketed £8m and will get a potentially very sizeable lump sum as our share of future profit.

I like Jadon Sancho and hope he will become a great player wherever he ends up. At the end of the day, it's a gamble for all parties, but I enjoyed watching him play in a City shirt and wish him all the best.

We didn't 'drop the ball' we wanted him to stay and it was his desire to go because he wanted more game time which we weren't prepared to guarantee him.

Watching a 're run of the game this morning, I was left with more questions than answers.

What a shame pep isn't coaching him.

 

[DTeacher]

We made a mistake with him. Some people can't criticise or take any criticism of the club, but the pathway from youth team to first team leaves a lot to be desired.

He was 17 and wanted assurances pf game time. He went on strike - a fully fledged prima donna. We are debatably the BEST TEAM in Europe and have some of the world's best young talent already.

Not our mistake and people who only accept the blatant media biased BS need to get real. All major companies lose good employees every so often, as the decision rests with the individual. Sancho made his choice (at 17) and FODEN has made his.

It would be tough for any 17 yr old to progress to a premier league team who had lost 2 of 50 odd games in the league.

Rubbish,although you might have a point if we were Everton.

 

[BigOscar]

Do you reckon Barca get this "they made a mistake and let him go" bollocks every time someone poaches one of their young players? Young players jump ship all the time, there is little you can do to stop it.

 

[Proy]

So when a 17 year old puts a load of unrealistic demands on the table we should just down tools and take it?

Come off it man. He’s a kid who was part of arguably the best team in Europe and he thinks he can just walk into that team?

Absolute nonsense

barca make that mistake all the time, they just just wheel out the trophies and Messi, so when the BBC and others sing his praises we just wheel out our trophies and ask when is he going to be as good as Sane,
I also do not believe he left for game time i believe he was advised that there are 2 ways to the top 1 is hard work the other is the media and he has chosen the city hating media I do not think it was accidental that he chose to thank Dortmunds coaches last week, can the media make a silk purse out of a cows ear like Rashford? of course they can, and we can wheel out our trophies and better players I would wish him well but he and the media are ramming it down my throat at the moment

Did this at the wrong club. Wonder how he will react when he loses a bit of form and ends up on the Dortmund bench. Wonder what the English gutter-zeitungen would have to say on a bunch o' Johnny Foreigners keeping young English talent bench-warming. Would Southgate give him a second glance?

 

[cjn]

I don't know if folks missed it, but Pep has already said Sancho is not coming back, referencing him 'not wanting to be here', so he's not coming back whilst Pep is here.

I watched that press conference and I don't think it was that black and white at all. I took it as Pep saying, "listen he we wanted him here last time and he didn't want to stay so who knows?". As in, yeah maybe he could but even if we wanted him he needs to want us as well, rather than there being no chance because he snubbed us or whatever.
