Leroy Sané

[Pollocksheader]

To say he can’t cut it is a bit daft when he clearly did cut it with us. Don’t think we’d have chosen him to leave but Bayern, his home country was too tempting for him.

 

[Thaksinssoldier]

Severe amount of posters commenting “sane is shit” who I’ve never seen posting on the forums beforehand. Weird.

Then we have the “looked like a sulk” brigade. Also weird.

Here’s another view. Sane came here and tore the absolute arse out of the league as a kid. Destroyed Liverpool whose fans still speak his name in hushed tones and was our best player in champs league that season.

He won the YPOTY and the Germans were absolutely apoplectic that a golden boy was showing up their league.

This is when the collusion started, I’m absolutely convinced of it.

Loew left him out of the German national squad as a message. That must have really hurt the lad.

Bayern then moved to tap up his family and cause a fuckton of personal issues, resulting in him moving their to appease his family even though his missus didn’t want him to leave England.

Promised the sun, moon and stars and once he got their they treated him like shit.

Here’s what’s likely next. He’ll come back to England and return to form.

Pray for Newcastle to move for him, but I live in fear of Klopp doing it.

A lot of people seem to have treated him badly, maybe in that case he should have a good look at himself.

He had the world at his feet with us and he walked away to go home and to become seriously wealthy, going home I have no issue with but the money and loss of desire has taken it's toll.

Sane in his prime was at times devastating. No one can argue against that. However……
Sane playing for Bayern against City the other night was practically invisible. This is the present….
Sane re signing for City is not going to happen. Lack of commitment was evident against us. We don’t need him. But if City did sign him who would we drop to fit him into the team?
The ship has sailed guys! I suggest we all enjoy what we have now. Personally I am very excited going into this season. The signings we have made, will galvanise this squad even more.
Enjoy the ride guys and stop hankering after the past.
This is the future!

 

[Revolver]

Don’t think it would happen but if Sané was willing to work hard and Pep would take him back I would be well chuffed.

Like all wingers he could blow hot and cold but he added some different to our team. I would hate to see him at another premiership club ( ala Zinchenko)

Going to a one team dreary league where he could play at 50% and the team still win may not have helped him at his stage of career. But I could be wrong on this.

When Sane left he went to the wrong team and that team were blind to the real Sane. Both made mistakes. Sane did a lot of things right but two things he didn't do were press and chase back. How many times did we see Sane lose the ball and not press to get it back? His preferred options were to shrug his shoulders or have a tantrum. His approach to selectively chasing back made our left backs look poor too often. Going to a team like Bayern that expected players to work hard was a mistake by both parties. Demonstrated by how often he didn't start after the honeymoon period in Munich. It's very unlikely we would have him back.

From my point of view, as one of the posters who suggested Sane is now shit, is that he’s lost all focus and determination.

If you’ve seen anything of him in the past couple of years, you’ll see a player going through the motions and looking disinterested.

Add that to the season he spent on the bench here following his injury and that’s 3 years of not caring anymore.

He had the world at his feet. He doesn’t anymore, but can go home every night and know that he’ll never need to work again after football.

I think this thread should be in the General forum not Transfer forum ,because there isn't any link to the player.

I don't he wouldn't get in their team regular, doesn't have the work ethic. Same as when he was with us

 

[vmsuhail]

People still banging on about this flop ffs

At Manchester City
2017/18 - 14 goals, 19 assists
2018/19 - 14 goals, 18 assists

Last 2 seasons at Bayern Munich
2020/21 - 10 goals, 12 assists
2021/22 - 14 goals, 15 assists

His City stats are marginally better than Phil Foden's and as for Grealish, he has to improve a lot to produce this output.

The Bundesliga being a one team league must also be taken into account...

 

[Brewster's millions]

Loads of back and forth on here about his drop off in form, but we should remember that he had a major injury that effectively put him out for a year.

Knee surgery has obviously moved on leaps and bounds over the past decade and you rarely hear of players having to retire now. But the injury could have robbed him of that final few percentages which can make the difference for a player like him.

At his peak I thought he was an exceptional player for us, but clearly he’s failed to hit that level again.

 

[OrigamiNinja]

Have no idea what has been doing performance wise at Bayern (not a lot apparently). Will also accept that he had some appalling performances in a City shirt where nothing would go right for him. Also agree that the other night he was anonymous, like the majority of the rest of the Bayern side in a game that City pretty much controlled.

However, the narrative that seems to be getting peddled on here, that he was largely hit or miss in a City shirt is absolute nonsense. In 17/18 he was absolutely incredible and the 1st player we ever had that looked like a genuine future Ballon D'or candidate. He was a kid that had a lot to learn, unfortunately he chose to do his learning elsewhere and it hasn't worked out, but it doesn't diminish what he did here.

It is unlikely he comes back and only Pep knows whether its even remotely a goer. If Pep did want him, I have a feeling attitudes would change pretty quickly on here.

Absolutely that should be taken into account.

It‘s another question mark for any potential buying club though.

Towards the end he couldn't get a start, same at the moment for Bayern, think because of his attitude. I don't care much for stats,I go to the games

 

[manimanc]

I'd have Leroy back in a heartbeat but he's lost his mojo for the game. He fell out of love with football long before we sold him and he hasn't exactly been ripping up trees in Germany.
We've just sold a moody winger, don't think pep would have another one in.

This is ultimately his issue.

He’s frustrated and needs an arm around his shoulder.

Bayern bought him and tried convert him to wingback ffs. Even now look at him in their system, everything is built for the wing to cut inside and feed Lewandowski who has now departed. It’s horrible football even if effective and wingers look dreadful in it.

If he went to Liverpool we’d be horrified I reckon. Klopp is the type of manager he needs and their system is made for him.

He’ll leave Bayern and I can only hope he ends up somewhere other than those shitbags.

We wouldn't have him back for all those reasons you mentioned. He struggled to get a start last time he was here, can't get a game now and has a whopping wage. Why would we possibly consider bringing him back

 

[Thenumber1blue]

Yaya would have more chance of coming back

To this day, I'm baffled by him being left out of the Germany squad. Makes sense that it was a power play - 'come back to Germany playing for Bayern and we'll get you back in'.

Pricks.
