Is the bottled challenge on the BBC highlights?  It looks like he's dummying - allowing the ball to cross his body - hoping the defender over commits. 
A calculated risk, rather than bottling it.  It didn't come off but not sure he should be completely written off if that is the evidence.

Which one? It wasn't a day or pitch for dummying anything. Sancho does all he can to avoid physical contact, utterly unacceptable on a day like yesterday.

I'm struggling to remember the last player we had like that. Nzogbia and Ireland were cowardly enough at their worst.

It’s only a matter of time before someone slips in a “doesn’t like to get his shots dirty” comment and we’ll be back to the 1980s. He was fine when he came on, did some good stuff offensively, carried the ball well when he needed to and despite a couple of times when he lost the ball too easily I thought he was ok, nothing spectacular but it didn’t need to be, we were winning the game and just needed to see it out. He covered Maatsen very well for the most part defensively and they linked very well offensively. From some of the comments on here you’d think he’d scored two own goals and cost us the game.

At least he hasn't got a big nose.

he just doesn't influence anything in games - he looks lost.

He will excel with a consistent run of gametime.

Malen was a slow starter also.

Give The Sanch time.

Sancho is skillful, likes to combine with others but is ultimately very easy to defend against because his play is predictable, he’s largely one paced and has no body strength to hold off physical challenges.

I thought he was half decent first half , but then returned to his previous form second half.

In the ground I thought he had a good game, and is just lacking bit of confidence to take on a final shot. He certainly isn’t as bad as some of the comments are making out.

He's also useless at kicking the ball with either foot.
