I agree but I believe in second chances and especially since he is English I hope we get to a point in which we have at least 5 English players in the team.

Would he count as " homegrown" if he doesn't return to the PL for the next few years though?I agree but I believe in second chances and especially since he is English I hope we get to a point in which we have at least 5 English players in the team.
I think we've past the point of wondering. He clearly did. He was in the same level asDiaz and Foden 2 years ago. Now he is a 100 million Euro player who's a national team starter. Foden and Diaz are still potential. He isn't.Time will tell if Sancho made the right decision. He clearly is a prodigy and has had a great Bundesliga season. I wish him nothing but success and he does not owe us, we bought him ourselves. I am saying that I would not pay £80m for him because I don't believe he wishes to fight for his place against other top talents. It is that which makes our club so successful.
You couldn't have made righter decision. He bet on himself and won. Nothing but respect for that.
Under the standard rules he wouldn't. Plus there are no exemptions for English players as Eric Dier isn't a homegrown player for example.Would he count as " homegrown" if he doesn't return to the PL for the next few years though?

Until somebody buys him for 100m he is worth exactly what Dortmund paid for him.
And I agree, he made the right decision.

So Phil who has 2 PL medals is only a potentially good player, whilst Sancho who has won fuck all is a £100m player lol
Phil has been ahead of Sancho in every season at City when both were here. If he went to Germany he would be a £200m player, but he backs himself to make it with us instead of running away from the challenge!
maybe he has heard some encouragement from Benfica / felix camp
Is Duncan quoting someone else or have I suffered a head injury ?

Fair enough. :)Until somebody buys him for 100m he is worth exactly what Dortmund paid for him.
