    Very sensible comments/strategy from Sir Jim, he's trying to follow the Sir Alex blueprint of success, mainly nurture and develop young players and turn them into superstars, and only spend big when truly exceptional talent is spotted and needed...
  • It's good that he's doing better now, makes it easier to sell him in the summer and recoup some fees. Some players are just better in other environments/clubs, never suitable for United, and Sancho is definitely one of them.
