Leroy Sane - 2017/18 performances

He is an immense talent. Once he improves his one big weakness (decision making) he’ll be unstoppable. He has plenty of time to do that and that is usually something that comes with time, anyway.

He is going to be a superstar for me. His quality is incredible. Unlucky not to score two tonight and at the heart of everything.

He stands out a mile at the top level, it should be enough to highlight that he is extremely special... i was against Sanchez signing as I thought it would hold Leroy back, I personally think it's overkill and we should be looking at other areas!

I'm in favour of getting Sanchez. We saw again tonight that we can be wasteful in the final third so another option and more competition for the forwards still has merit for me. However, Leroy surely has the potential to be as good as Sanchez and Raz ain't chopped liver.
 
I see in Sane what I first saw in Ronaldo, in that desire and selfishness to be the best. This guy if he carry's on the way he's going is going to be the next superstar.
He cocked up tonight near the end when trying to score on his own when a square pass to Sterling instead would and should have resulted in a certain goal, Pep will no doubt have a wee word in his ear about that and he will learn from it.
Every youngster we've bought lately seems to be a phenomenon and getting better, show's we are now getting it right and the Rodwell days long gone.

Yes I love watching Leroy but I hope Pep gave him a right bollocking for being a greedy sod, he had Sterling and I think also Bernardo in front of an open goal.

He also cocked up in the 41st minute where he was too selfish again. His shot was close enough but laying it off to Gabriel would've been a dead certain goal.
He sometimes looks like he needs reminding that he's playing in a team.
I really don't like some of his decision making, nor his temper tantrums and selfishness, also his pressing/defensive workrate is still wanting but I'm sure he's working on it and Pep will sort him out in the end.
If he improves on those points he'll be a force to be reckoned with.
 
I'll take the occasional poor decisions and shots that could have been passes and give you a deadlock breaking goal against Watford, and crosses that strikers lick their lips at and a brilliant interchange with David last night that took three players out of the game and saw him driving into the box.

He will learn, with experience he will know when to give and when to go, his petulance is about a desire to win and he will learn how to control it - enjoy, appreciate, encourage and we will all keep the rewards.
 


Interesting tweet—I wonder if he read the replies (which generally praised him but said he needs to be less selfish at times)?

I’d drop the self-hashtag, though. Looks a bit precious.

Still love him, mind.
