Really don't want him back. He has some talent for sure but the attitude is just all kinds of wrong.

Sancho back!
70+ million for Branthwaite!
Southgate as manager!

Sounds the stuff of nightmares...not the new dawn we were all hoping for when INEOS took aver a quarter.

It would hardly be surprising from Sancho. Dortmund don't want him since he's not been good enough for them to break their budget. Unfortunately all his loan spell has done has proven that he isn't good enough to play in his own perfect little environment, let alone at a club that could pay him even half of what he's on.

As for the Wilcox thing, of course the club would want to keep all the options open, but realistically this is looking like a Martial situation, where the player comes back from a poor loan to spend two poor years running down their anything-but-poor contract. We can maybe hold out some hope that his mate Neymar lures him to Saudi Arabia.

I just think he's way more valuable as a means of setting a standard for behaviour than he is as a player. Which means he's finished at the club.
If it was just one player who'd fundametally change the quality of the team it would be fine. But theres been way too much of that crap in recent seasons, way too much undermining the manager, way too much disrespecting their team mates. He's a scapegoat for wider squad issues but we're overdue to address it.

The club needs to show the players that the time of player power is fecking over.

I suppose it depends on the nature of the bad behaviour. Some things might be deemed as acceptable or more forgiving than others. I was all for ETH cutting him out of the team but I don't think what he did is so bad that you can't allow him back. A bigger issue is his level of football since coming to United and he's not exactly set the world alight on loan either.

Yes exactly.

It's not even a matter of past feuds or a clean slate with a new manager. He just doesn't have the minerals to play for a big club in the Premier League. One good performance every five games won't cut it.

I really hope we get football people in charge that can see these things, so we don't waste more time on players like Sancho.

Weird, the special mummy team of Dortmund can't get a tune out of him, how else will anyone get him to perform?

In reality, they won't. He's clearly a waster.

He is a baller, I would give him chance.
I was training under one crazy man, Zlatan Saracevic, he won some medal for Yugoslavia in in olympics. And he was always right.
It was old school (soviet) of training, school, training, eat sleep. No time for anything other, it was just brutal. And if you are not good he would send you to train alone, same as Sancho. I would watch everybody hanging around and I would be alone on other side of field. I would cry at home, and that even wasnt lucrative sport. I just wanted to go on olympics games and to have some fun. Braking my arm was best thing what happened to me.
Some people are bad trainers and role models. EtH is just cold mf IMHO. Fergie was brutal, but at least he would fire you up and gave you a chance.

Edit, i would play him behind Rasmus.

He's been dogshit for nearly the entirety of his 3 years here, where has this baller been? None of the issues with training would have been really mentioned if he did anything notable on the pitch, it becomes less palatable for someone to be a waste of space in matches when they're not pulling their weight in training either. I have a horrible suspicion that Ten Hag will still be manager next year and we will be paying Sancho to underwhelm for another club on loan but I'd hope we get rid of both of them this summer.

And if he comes back and finds good form? (longshot I know)

To be honest, if they bring him back and it somehow works, I'll be all for it. I'm only a fickle and forgiving little fan after all. It just doesn't seem like that would be likely at all, and his time at Dortmund makes it look even more impossible.

He has to be done. Otherwise it continues the recent player power. Sends the message players are bigger than the manager. You just need to outlast the latest manager

Complete waste of space. Don't let him back in to turn on the next manager the second he's asked to run a bit.

Having a good game, actually. Created at least two very good chances, among them the 2:0. A bit wasteful on the ball, though.

Sabitzer and Sancho heading into a CL semi final is as depressing as it is funny.

If INEOS allow him back it does just as much damage as when Woodward backed Pogba vs Mourinho. Potentially even more.

Don’t give a shite how he’s playing for Dortmund. In fact I’d rather he was decent than we can get shut this summer.

Why was he actually frozen out again, for a Tweet that he deleted or refusing to apologise to Ten Hag for a Tweet that he deleted?

The Sabitzer thread is the one we need to be going into. He's playing great.

He had a few decent bits of link up play, like the nice pass to Sabitzer for the Brandt goal but he's not been all that good. He's tried getting past his man but failed to beat the full back more often than not. I don't think he was as bad as others have made out but he failed to make a significant mark on the game.

He has 6.4 on SofaScore, in a game where Dortmund are winning 4:2.

I'm assuming he was awful?
