Sancho may be a complete twat, or he may not. I don't know him personally. But it's a shame to see a talent going to waste. Hope he pulls himself together.

In the real world, I would agree...waste your talent and you end up on the dole or in a cardboard box, and that is a crying shame.

An overpaid, overhyped, millionaire entitled footballer, on £350k per week? Nah, couldn't give a flying fuck. Go waste your talent....in Dubai, Marbella, the leafy burbs of Cheshire....it must be so difficult to cope.

My heart bleeds.

Many could see this coming and it isn't a surprise. Has ten hag thrown him under the bus by telling the world?
File with wan bissaka, Maguire, Ronaldo, van de beek, martial, pogba as overpriced panic buys, how much money wasted!!

As an interested and objective football fan I don't see it as wasted money, more of the same please. Who are we to tell the great unwashed it's a waste of money.

Let's be honest we have been lucky with our signings


Also keep paying the Glazer family their deserved dividend.

His mistake was going to the scum. When was the last time a young player or even an experienced player improved at the rags ?

I dont see the appeal for young players to go to the rags it wont improve their careers. Will improve their bank balance. But you are throwing your career away over money.

So it is Amazon now. Amazon is a tax dodging Tory loving organization that doesn't pay it's employees enough to live and tries to crush unions. They are a match made in heaven. Two utterly despicable organizations. I'll be cancelling Prime if this happens as should every blue.

Can you imagine the name of the Swamp. It would be the Theatre of Tat. Old Next Day Deliveryford. The new ground will house 80k OOT's on match day and be turned into a distribution centre on Saturdays as they never play then.

This sale is like one of their transfer pursuits. Probably all talk and rumor to keep the 650 million loyal match going (my dad is from Salford) fans happy and a very disappointing outcome.

Sorry mate, if you think that about Amazon you might try to not contribute funds for them to dodge tax, underpay workers and crush unions in the first place. Just stop buying Prime now.

Edit: Read more, it is an attitude and fitness issue according to Ten Hag himself...

Ten Hag: "He’s [Sancho] not fit enough to be here [Spain training camp] — he wasn't in the right status, in the right fitness state, so now he's on an individual programme and we want him to finish that programme and hopefully, we see him back soon."

Ten Hag: "There's huge competition with England. Even at the World Cup, every game is difficult to know who to start because there's so much talent in the offensive line. When you don't show it week by week you can fall out of the squad, which is what happened [with Sancho]."

Ten Hag: "I have had several talks with Jadon [Sancho]. He's on a physical programme and our aim is to get him back as quickly as possible, but I can't give a prognosis of when that will be."

A lack of fitness is almost unforgivable and completely incomprehensible to me. As a strictly amateur and talentless never was athlete I still managed to train and compete in several marathons and cycling events until well into my early 50s.

At the same time I brought up a young family, worked up to 50 hours a week, renovated my shitty terraced house and cycled instead of drove to work to save money.

Fuck him the soft, lazy bastard.

I cant keep up with the random corporate names who are purported to be interested in buying the rags


the only source that is generating this is themselves.
the Best they can hope for is naming rights of the swamp from these companies
football is not their business.

Our signings have been the result of two or three inch dossiers which have focused as much on the personality of the player as much as his footballing talent. I think we have not got one 'twat' on board.
