Leroy Sane - 2016/2017 performances

[City_Sean]

Could you imagine how dangerous our left side would have been if we had a proper fullback alongside him? Clichy offers him no support.

 

[Saddleworth2]

Made dangerous runs all night long. De Bruyne and Kun still choosing to ignore him. He needs better support from the team, only David and Raheem give him what he needs.

 

[Mike N]

Only positive thing from last night.

 

[Thaksinssoldier]

He was great again.

Still raw, but we can't expect Sane or Sterling to be the finished articles yet.

Both will learn from last night.

will be unplayable if there is an intelligent fullback to support pass and move.

Same applies to Sterling but you'd never think so reading his thread.

Sane did some good things last night but also made mistakes, shooting wildly when the keeper rushed out - more composure could have opened up a scoring chance - blasting a pass at Aguero (the one that he skyed) when he could just have rolled it into his path. He'll improve with experience but he's not beyond criticism.

Great talent but wasteful in front of goal.
Needs to be coached properly to improve this area of his game.

I think that will come. His decision making is raw but with every game he is learning what works and what doesn't in certain situations. Hopefully he has the aptitude to learn from them and apply them. No reason to doubt he won't and when he does....oh boy. I mean he's already scoring at a good rate since Arsenal and his assists are good too, imagine even just a slight improvement?

Much like Zabba and Sterling. We look dynamite down the right with these two. Zabba picks up the space Sterling leaves. Clichy is braindead.

I think Clichy is doing what Pep is telling him.

Pep prefers constant passing through the middle instead of crossing, and thats why fullbacks are not supporting the wingers.

Why can't we give him and Sterling the ball first time in behind as they are starting their Sprint instead of them having to check their runs 3 or 4 times and giving the defence a chance to get cover behind.
