He's decent but if we can't find another decent player somewhere at a more modest wage, you have to wonder what our scouts are doing.

Didn't Chelsea have a obligation to buy clause? They paid Manchester United several millions to get out of it.

First goal v Fenerbahce, first assist v Bournemouth, couple of reasonable performances in between. Maybe going to show us all some of his quality v Brighton.

Sancho is a wastrel, a charlatan stealing a living off a reputation earned of the back of a couple of good seasons from years ago in an inferior league.

Add to this excellent summation i am so pissed off with the half arsed attempts he makes in challenges - i appreciate he is not a bruiser to go diving into blood and thunder tackles but he bottles even 60/40 in his favour clashes as he is so lightweight.

I really hope come the summer we can look at a better return for our money - and certainly not anywhere near his current ridiculous wages.

Maybe we can get a glimpse of the lesser spotted Allyson  ::)

Honestly thought he was excellent first half, easily his best performance for us by some margin. The link up play with Rogers for the goal is representative of how good he can be, hopefully a sign of things to come. He's been much better these past 5 or so games, showing little bits here and their and we'll need that in the run in.

Having said that, even if he maintains that for the next 3/4 months, I don't think we should be the ones to offer him a contract in the summer. Even with a wage cut to 170-200k, half a season here and there of good play over the past few years just isn't good enough.

He is looking better than previously but we've been here before, someone plays great, we give them a contract and they then play shite - Come June we should say thanks and bye bye

Some clubs seem to be able to find players who can hypnotise defenders by thought process into just standing still and ghosting past them.
I wish we could find one of those.
