Jadon Sancho (loan)

[Brazilian Villain]

Trust his judgement but refuse to accept what he said as truth.

He subbed a sub
Pretend all you like but I’m not as gullible as you

He has subbed subs at least 4 times now I believe.

According to a Sky Sports journo on X, it's was the 10th time Emery has subbed a sub since he took charge. Didn't think it would be that high, but suggests it's not that unusual for Unai.

He's got a bit of the Dele Alli about him.  Undoubted skill.  Attitude not so much.

Emery might be deflecting I suppose, but the truth seems more plausible. He didn’t have a pre-season and lost a week or two with us so I can understand why Emery is managing his minutes.

There's little or no chance Emery had in his head that he would only give Sancho 40 mins when he brought him on. He's being kind there. What I would say is in the previous occasions, which in the cases of Bailey and Buendia were a lot harsher, it happened those players were given chances very quickly again afterwards. Sancho could be back in very quickly again.

it wont be at Anfield.

Why not? With Elliot missing there is more chance of Sancho then not.

Because he couldn’t trust him against Man city at home and after subbing him on he had to sub him off for his own good
So I very much doubt he’ll trust him away at Anfield

But it’s true you never know if you’re right and the plan all along was to give him minutes he’s got a good chance of playing next week
If I’m right and he got subbed off because he became a liability he won’t be anywhere near the Anfield pitch

Just have to wait and see I suppose

If we are chasing the game then he's definitely an option. Liverpool are struggling at right back. Sancho has all the skills but in the PL you have to be able to physically compete. He has always struggled with that. Elliot likely is falling short in training in this same area.

Guessand showed in his cameo why he has earned Emerys trust.
