Jadon Sancho

[Sunnysideupp]

I heard them with my own ears.

Is that reliable enough for you?

Afraid not..

If Sancho is the product of our academy who had to leave to get game time, image how good the next lad will be who breaks through.

Let's not kid ourselves that the academy is a business model that feeds the first team - Fair play to him for having the confidence in himself to get where he has so quickly but he didn't earn the right to walk into our first team squad, nor should he.

Wish him all the best and we continue as per plan.

He'll likely end up at utd anyways...

Our club and Pep’s objective is to win trophies, not to have a collection of good players. We’re not in a card-collecting game. We’re in the trophy winning game. There will be players that will always be missed, or youth players leaving and honestly we can’t have them all. Some you get, some you don’t, let’s just move on. As long as we’re winning trophies, that’s all that matters.

No buy back clause?

No buy back clause?

Option to match the highest bid if sold by Dortmund.

Not exactly sure of the ramifications of that though, do we need to see the 'enforceable' bid by Club X to prove there was such a bid?

On tonights evidence in the England game, Hudson Odoi looks a much better prospect than Sancho, far better decision making and good positional awareness.

I think the thing that didn't help us here is both the pursuit of Sanchez and the fact that Diaz was ahead of Sancho too.

There was oversight there from the club. Sancho couldn't just leapfrog Diaz in the pecking order, despite being the better player with more potential, as that'd be unfair on Diaz.

It's just a shame how it all worked out, because now those two aren't at the club anyway and we had to break the bank for Mahrez who is nothing more than an average squad player with no further potential for growth.

If he ends up at the scum I'll be absolutely gutted. Should've put some kind of buyback clause in there. He's exactly the kind of stand in up coming talent we need right now in and around the squad.

Just a really disappointing one really.

Agreed.

The problem here is agents, they have a decent player then tell them to demand xyz from the club, they know the player won't get it, so that opens the door to them getting the player a decent move and lining there own pockets, same thing happened with pogba at the scum, sancho was offered a great deal by city and could have stayed and learned his trade around some of the finest players in the world, fair fucks to him for going to Dortmund, but in that time has won fuck all, Foden chose to stay learn his trade and has a premiership medal, a league cup medal, not sure if he got a community shield one, but foden chose the slowly slowly approach and is doing ok

This was also the case a few years ago in the FA youth final.
He ripped City apart that night. Sancho was nowhere to be seen!
