Never heard once that he "wasn't settled" in Manchester in terms of the city and area, quite the opposite from what most people say.
Terry was a Utd fan as a boy still became Chelsea`s greatest ever captain his childhood associations mean little and you shouldn`t worry about Chelsea coming for him they are adding Havertz to an attack that already has Pulisic, Ziyech and Werner as the front 4 the move would make little sense for both the player(game time) and Chelsea(need to focus on their defence with 54 conceded PL goals and a new GK) we have a very free run
Its genuinely bizarre people are still trying to talk up the chance of him going to Chelsea. Just how mentally scarred are some of you muppets.
Haha well said.
So @Prodigal7 you fear Abramovich will spend 100m Euros and 80m Euros on 2 attackers in addition to already 100m or so Euros on 2 attackers, while they need a GK, LB and CB? Ok. I feel sorry for you that you are so scarred by previous muppet failures.
Sancho wont go Chelsea. They are stacked in the wide positions. The only team i could see rivalling us is Liverpool if they got a big offer for Salah or Mane . Utd need to get this over the line and soon . He is the number 7 we been crying out for since Ronaldo left
Mh, i think the difference between the top 4 leagues is negligible in terms of quality but can be significant in terms of playing style. The bundesliga is a league of transitions, while PL is much more chaotic but also not as open
Weeeeelllll
Aside from the obvious Mbappé?(who's been even better and translated his league performances to CL/International football immediately)
Ousmane Dembele
I'm sure it's difficult to maintain a love and affection for a club you support when you are playing with a pro clubs youth teams from 6 years old
Genuine question. Did Dembele have these kinds of G+A numbers?Mh, i think the difference between the top 4 leagues is negligible in terms of quality but can be significant in terms of playing style. The bundesliga is a league of transitions, while PL is much more chaotic but also not as open

When the seagulls follow the trawler, it is because they think Jadon Sancho will be thrown into the sea.
Getting closer.
I've not kept up with the news today and haven't read up on this transfer. How likely is it looking or do we not have a hope in hell?
I see that we're already on 355 pages. I was a lurker during the infamous Vidal thread...

I've been watching a lot of his Youtube videos lately and i think he's what we need to complete our front three with Mason rotating either one of Rashy, Martial & Sancho. Muppet dream
Was a tongue-in-cheek and off the top of my head but you made me check
Per 90 minutes(league+CL):
15/16 Dembele 0.6 G 0.2 A 5 dribbles
16/17 Dembele 0.3 G 0.5 A 3.5 dribbles
16/17 Dembele(CL) 0.2 G 0.7 A 4.5 dribbles
18/19 Sancho 0.4 G 0.5 A 4.1 dribbles
18/19 Sancho(CL) 0.2 G 0.2 A 2.3 dribbles
19/20 Sancho 0.7 G 0.6 A 3 dribbles
19/20 Sancho(CL) 0.3 G 0.3 A 3.3 dribbles
16/17 Mbappé 0.9 G 0.5 A 1.9 dribbles

17/18 Mbappé 0.6 G 0.3 A 3.4 dribbles
17/18 Mbappé(CL) 0.5 G 0.4 A 3.7 dribbles
Sancho closer to Mbappé than Dembele in the league, not so in CL. Mbappé with the best numbers across the board. Also similar numbers between league and CL, which goes to show how ridiculous he is
You know the thing that surprises me, many think he's a RW player. Just because he's right footed. This lad can also play on the LW he's that versatile. I've seem him a few times on the left flank and he can dribble with both feet.
You could even have him as a attacking midfielder such his qualities are for optional back up if needed. Can you image if we got a out and out CF like Kane? Think I need to wake up and smell the coffee, probably won't happen.
Your quite right though, with Sancho he's a CF paradise.
CL-final, 2021. Down 1-0. 70+ minutes.
«Can Manchester United score? They always score.»
What else would the discussions be about?
I'll take your word for that as I haven't seen any of the new Chelsea players.
Now the important question is: is he here yet?!?!
I'm out of patience. When is his helicopter landing in Carrington?
One of the reasons to get this concluded ASAP is for our players to have as long as possible in training to familiarise themselves with one another, and for Bissaka to learn and process the myriad of options and possibilities that will be presented to him off the back of Sancho's movement, passing and threat.
Bissaka is going to often find himself wide open and free and it will be great if he has the understanding and situational awareness to make himself as much of a problem to deal with in his own right instead of standing static or reactive rather than proactive and constantly productive. Our coaches have a hand to play in AWB's development (if we get Sancho), too, as they really need to get every bit of attacking impetus out of him as they can.
Sancho could even usher in the contest between Baird and AWB for the supporting role as we move from defending that flank primarily to attacking it, relentlessly, through a truly world class threat, which will hopefully become a duo.
There's no doubting that Sancho is a force with or without a flanking FB, but to really lock a flank down, you need the full-back to play his part and it really will be something if we go from having to praise Bissaka for last-ditch tackles on our end to oppressing the opposition and hemming them in their own half as great wing pairings are famed for.

Which one of you lads is that then?
Ffs
I love itprobably one of the regulars from the matchday threads.
I’m going to try and not get too invested in this because it’s going to drag on until October.
There are arguments his actual best position is the LWF position and he's also great at just switching wings mid-game and trying his luck on the other side of the pitch.
I really wouldn't be surprised if he ends up in the middle by his latish 20's, personally. He has the skilset, the intelligence and awareness, but for now, it'll be great for us that he can pick up any position across that final third behind the striker and be effective from it. Bruno and Pogba roam a lot as does Martial, so there could be some multi-positional exchanges going on the likes of which we've not seen since the times of Rooney, Ronaldo and Tevez.
It's all very exciting. I'll wholeheartedly admit I've been on the Sancho muppet train in this thread for years now
and haven't anticipated a signing as much since the times of Vidal and Thiago... let's hope this one has a better outcome!No chance. Neither teams will want that to happen. It simply won’t be dragged into next season.
If he comes, that front line is causing serious damage to any opponent. It's very exciting times, I'm confident Sancho will come. Time to bring this team to the next level.
Dont scare me like that!
100% will. Big money involved.
I agree. Dortmund are not a club that will want this to drag and will want this done and dusted quickly so they can plan for the new season.
No doubt I'm on the same page as you with my thoughts. With a very good CB too then I'll be one happy chap.There are arguments his actual best position is the LWF position and he's also great at just switching wings mid-game and trying his luck on the other side of the pitch.

Clueless! Martial will be a starter for the next 3 years.
Is that Jesse?
I bet you an imaginary 100m pounds it doesn’t!
We've been joking about him being young but feck me, he turned into a 6 years old. Didn't see it coming at all.- Status
