Because I witnessed Sancho in Bundesliga and was absolutely stoked when we signed, I still stubbornly cling to the hope that somehow there can be a way.
He has got so much quality, at the beginning of the season I was convinced that it was integral to our success to start to consistently use him, and I did not like that ETH picked Garnacho to start over him.
It has gotten much more unlikely, since obviously some kind of mental or performance problem persists, and he then made a massive blunder with this social media post. It is hard to come back from this.
But with the Antony affair, I am again certain that we need to continue trying. We need Sancho, and Ten Hag needs to get the best out of him. It is a major task of his management in my opinion, to find a way to utilize Sancho's quality.
It is a problem that there was no transparency or clarity given to the supporters about what was and is going on with Sancho, when he was out for months. As a result, speculation is rampant and fans have made up their own minds.
Quite obviously that ominous speculation and damning fan judgements have affected Sancho even more negatively.
I hope Ten Hag finds a way, maybe the international break can help to mend things. Hope dies last.
