The annoying part of all this Sancho stuff is that you really want us to be more proactive with transfers, and we just don't seem to be. You see Chelsea agree deals for Ziyech in January to join in the summer, Werner very quickly, Pulisic last year before the season. United has rumors all year for a player and then spends months chasing or negotiating or whatever else, but takes way too long to complete whatever signing we want to do (that should've been sorted long ago). You look at City. They go and get Ferran Torres and Ake for cheap very quickly, as they were likely negotiating for a while and had things set. United could spend a while negotiating for Sancho, and then pull out with options like Ferran Torres, Thiago, etc all gone, when if we were more proactive, we would have it sorted out before. Instead, it feels like we scramble every window and don't do what we need to do in the end.
