Surprised he had so many appearances for Chelsea last season.

He is part of a squad that got into the Champions League and helped to win the World Cup for clubs. He has that on a CV. I hope it lifts up to that tag rather than proving to be a wanker. On the odd occasion I saw him play last year he looked quite quick. And a bit tricky. I hope he brings that to us.

Wasn’t he good with Dortmund last season

Sancho is obviously very talented, but he has failed to show it on a regular basis for a number of years now.  Glimpses, yes, but nothing more.

However, two things in my mind that I'm clinging to:

1. The last forward we loaned from Man Utd with a 'problematic' reputation did pretty well for us with a bit of Unai guidance.

2. It's a World Cup year, and he'll be 26 when it rolls around, smack bang in the prime years for a wide forward, so if he's not motivated to really turn it on this season, he never will be.

I'm a bit surprised we've gone in for him (like many), but as always, I trust Unai and his team if they think he can add something to the side that we weren't getting from Bailey.

Did Sancho and Maatsen ever coincide and link-up sexily on the left?

They both played in the side that got to the champions league semi in 2024, but on opposite sides.  Sancho played off the right for Dortmund.

The last time Sancho played with Maatsen was the European Cup final, with a certain Malen occupying the bench.

"Villa Park to be renamed 'Aston Priory' in recognition of the work done to rehabilitate fallen footballers (notably, those from the North-West)".

Sancho was excellent in the season before last on loan at Dortmund. Also played 40 odd games last season at Chelsea. Warming to him with Emery’s coaching

🚨 NEW: Marcus Rashford played a role in convincing Jadon Sancho to move to Aston Villa.

Keep your gob shut next time

That made me laugh. Only thing you can do with this.
