Maybe Sancho thinks Unai will get him back in the England squad like he did with Rashford.

Lazy waster who'll throw a strop when he inevitably gets hooked for being a lazy waster.

Welcome.

Everybody and his Uncle knows what he's trying to do is tread the same path Rashford did, that's to get his career back on track then try and bounce on to another club that he wants to play at, on the positive side providing we get a good season out of him, a few goals along the way,  that's the best we can look for.



If the result is that Barcelona sign him next summer that would suggest that he won't have had the disastrous season that is being predicted, no?

The point I was making was a spring board to other clubs, Sancho will never play for Barca and yes as mentioned if we get a good season out of him we've done well, point is, IF we do he'll be off.

I understand your point, I just don't really see your hypothetical as a criticism.

Let's say as an absolute worst-case scenario (attitude-wise, towards us) that right now his thoughts are "I'm too good for this bunch of shits, I'm going to own them, be their best player and resurrect my career next season somewhere better. But that will only happen if I go out and be their best player".

Then good luck to him, if he manages it, then great.

If it all goes well, he could even be our best ever player to have a surname starting with "Sanch".

Plus 'Sancho Villa' has a nice ring to it.

Haha, very good!

My son's German team is Dortmund (he was verboten by me from following Bayern) and when Sancho was there, he was his favourite player. Anyone who tries to rewrite his time there as "not that good" is being disingenuous, he was superb. Shame he went to the Old Trafford career graveyard.

One thing that puzzles me a bit though, is: Sancho prefers playing on the right. Elliott prefers playing on the right. Guessand prefers playing on the right. Malen prefers playing on the right. Not sure how this all fits together.

Sancho and OGS made clear at Man United that his favoured position was on the left. Which seemed odd given they had spent about 18 months tracking him to play on the right. Certainly he played on the left with Chelsea. He definitely isn't the classic PL winger that many expect, get to the byline and whip in crosses  Not particularly quick but he is technically very good. But no way he fits the midfield four setup and like you I don't see any system that accommodates those four.

I guess it could be worse, we could have gone for Delle Alli

Still only 29

The odd thing is that (a bit like Rashford) he should be ideal in Amorim's 3-4-3 on one side of the striker.

We’ve played 433 a fair few times under Emery, is this his thinking?

Should we be worried he didn’t want to sign permanently? Although it does appear that that meant we kept Emi which I’m sure will do wonders for their relationship?

How do we know he didn’t want to sign permanently?

I doubt we want/were able to do a permanent deal.
