Leroy Sane - 2018/2019 performances

[Oleole123]

People also forget if sane plays, usually 3 defenders are on him Giving free space for Sterling aguero

 

[The blue phantom]

It’s up to Sane to make himself a guaranteed starter by performing in training. We have no idea what goes on behind closed doors. I doubt he’s just being left out for shits and giggles.

True, I'll be giving Pep the benefit of doubt.

Saying Mahrez is better than Sané is almost as bad as saying Sané is better than Sterling.

I am not a fan boy ! You should have gone to watch the semi fi

You are a fan boy, is he Messi or Ronaldo so I can not consider Mahrez better than him ? You have been continously slagging him off the even when he does not play ! I breathe football and get many of my predictions spot on! If you think I am ignorant, so is Pep who played him ahead of your worshiped player and praised him after the game. The day Sane wins POTY award and wins the league while being surrounded by average players you will be entiltled to prove me wrong.

Mahrez has shown nothing here to prove to us that he's better than Sane. What Mahrez did in a totally different set up 3 years ago means f*ck all right now.

 

[Sir Joe Aguero]

Needs signing onto a long term contract and playing more regularly. He’d be first choice anywhere else and we’re at risk of losing him.

 

[Exeter Blue I am here]

He does not even come close to Mahrez. Sane could not even make it in a dreadfull german team for the world cup. As we all know, he is a prospect, he has not prved much yet ! Playing in a team full of world class players does not make him a world beater. As much as I like the pace and technicality of Sane, he gives the ball away more often than Mahrez, his first touch is most of the time shocking and he does not defend well. Had Sane played yesterday, we would have had a very reminiscent score of against Liverpool last season.
Treating a city player who has done his atmost to join city and has not spared himself in pursuit for improvement since he joined the team a clown is just disgraceful.

Comedy gold.

Mate, I'm guessing you're Algerian or of Algerian heritage, cos there's no other explanation for such embarrassing codswallop. You're like the Redbeard Rum of Blue Moon. All the other posters say City would be better off with Sane, but you say we wouldn't, therefore opinion on the subject is divided.
Bottom line, Leroy's been pretty good since he's been here, and at times scintillating. Mahrez has been anything but. One of the most spineless individuals to wear a City shirt in a good long while. And before you start, I'm no hater. I'm desperate for him to do well. He just hasn't got the cojones on the evidence to date

When it comes to teams who press and/or counter well Pep does seem to go with a player who can hold the ball well on the wing. Last year when he played Gundogan on the right against Liverpool comes to mind. This is one of Sane's flaws. He does lose the ball the ball at times which could lead to counter attacks more easily. I really think Pep was more concerned about keeping the score tight and not pushing for a goal and making it an open game. However Sane does track back well and has the pace to defend and really should have just played him because Mahrez offered nothing. There are 2 more games against Spurs so we'll see.

Very strange Pep decided to adopt this strategy for an away game. If it had been open game and we lost 3-2 it would have been better than the 1-0 loss.

If you want to say it's one of Pep's flaws then maybe it is. But away from home he wants to control everything, even the crowd. If we have the ball for long periods it becomes boring for the crowd and takes the atmosphere away. If Aguero had scored his pen then it would have been a good strategy. Now we have to go for it at home so if Leroy doesn't play then something is wrong.

He is best suited to City, Pep did not recruit him out of sentimentality. His stats are more than decent, his contribution is obvious, his first touch is world class, his crosses are deadly, his vision is extraordinary.

I am so mature that I will not get into childish discussions ! All your questions are irrelevant. My age and number of times I have watched City this season are none of your business with all due respect.

Mahrez is shit for us, mate.
