Erik ten Hag vs Sancho
- Thread starter Someone
- Start date
Yep agree with this. I'd rather throw them in than Sancho play another minute for this club.
I would put Brighton on the same list with Dortmund...players just look different after a move from those 2 clubs.
Best to just stay well clear.
Says it all. Can't get picked for club or country and this is what he thinks is an appropriate response. On top of that idiotic Twitter post. Unbelievable, Sancho. Really smart stuff from a top earner who isn't producing anything whatsoever. Hopefully he is sent to the reserves or benched till he is sold/loaned. Can't stand him.
It is more a United issue than a Dortmund one. There are several ex-Dortmund players who did well. Ask City about Gündogan, Akanji, Haaland...
How can you guys claim Haaland when everyone knew he was something special, and he made it clear BVB was a stepping stone for him.I am not claiming anyone. What do you even mean? I just listed players that were at Dortmund and that also were a success elsewhere.
There were some red flags with Sancho and United's transfers over the last 10 years show, that they are not particularly great at identifying players that fit their club.
He is still very young at the age of 18.
It isn't the first time I've seen him used as an example of BVB or Bundesliga exports being successful, but imo he is an obvious exception.
We were the only ones in the running for him.
There were lots of people claiming that he will burst in the PL since he only did it at Dortmund.
And speaking of "obvious"... It is also obvious, that United has a bad track record of signing players:

Both things can be true. We're bad at our big expensive signings, and bundesliga being a weak league that makes attackers look good.
You look at the list of high profile Borussia sales recently and I think plenty of players are doing fine. Some busts but a lot of very big names now too. The oddity is really that all United recruits from there flopped hard (with Kagawa being more very underwhelming than a Titanic bomb ?).
The other problem with this is, he didnt have to stop and take this picture! He could have got away with this trip without all the media stuff around it.
To a rich person like him, New York is relatively close and can easily be done as a one nighter from the UK. For example; He can leave his house at 4pm, be on the private jet by 5 and land in NYC by 7pm local time. Go have dinner, party and be back on the jet by 3/4 am flying back to the UK and land in the afternoon next day.
Why? He was one of several extremely talented young players who moved to Dortmund for their development and for whom it was clear that it would be a stepping stone. The other players in that category were Sancho and Bellingham.
I feel that they would have been successful also if they went to serie A, or eredivisie. Gundogan was a perfect example because he grew up in the system. I'm sure there are better examples than Haaland to show that bundesliga talents can thrive elsewhere.
Shy boy jets to New York to party with celebs?
Uh oh, just read what GS said about Foden.
PF PR to the rescue! Any second now..
National media outrage. Any second now..
Oh, that was written 7 hours ago?
Darn. Anyway...

No, that is the other him, the extrovert.
The Shy guy him is at home reading poetry.
I take your point, but I would never use City to prove it...they are so well run at the moment they could carry my nan upfront and she's dead.
What a let down.what a talent to waste.
Guess this guy doesn't want to fight , just a warrior on twitter. Will be interesting to see how EtH manages the right wing,,goes with youth or plays it safe with Mount/Fernandes. I hope he opts for the youth option.

It's looking like his days are numbered now and I can see him being moved on in January, he hasn't helped himself at times, the days leading up to the arsenal games he' was late for training more than once
Jadon's virtues or sins are really not contingent on posting a vacation photo on his IG.
There's plenty enough to latch on with his attitude to criticism from the coach & his pitch form.

He's deleted the pinned tweet finally
I actually had a big soft spot for Jadon and thought this could be salvaged but if you're moronic enough to show the world that the celeb lifestyle is more your thing than working while many of your teammates are off playing in the internationals then you need to check yourself. Especially when the club has given you so much time and support to deal with your mental health.
He's in a small group of some of the highest paid athletes in the world. Wish we could take that approach to our work and still roll in the cash.

Yes the penny dropped for him eventually.
He needs to tweet an apology and pin that
Well done Jadon...apparently it had been viewed 62 million times haha
Still hope he isn't in the squad this weekend but fair enough, he took it down, small steps.
This football thing isn't for him. Needs an influencer account.
I'm late to the party, what did he take down? The original post that called his manager a liar or something else?
Hopefully the issue is resolved or is being resolved. Honestly though, if he does play again and his performances remain at the same level I can't see the OT crowd being as supportive as they have been to him. Thin ice!
It shouldn't be seen as a hint to anything. The number of clubs who could have afforded him at the time was very small so there were never going to be many options. Also, maybe he had his heart set on us.
No small steps, no reprieve. The lad is lazy and toxic for this squad. He's paid 350k a week to barely even be a bench level player. I hope ETH doesn't forgive and he is done here. No more accepting this shit.
Does that mean ETH will be forced to take him back.
People are so weird. Lad uses his time off to have time off and people rage.
So what's the latest? Did they have a clear the air meeting? Given the leaks from the club, I feared the worst.
He is slow at literally everything (well apart from defending himself on social media against his manager when the latter had not even attacked him).
He's JLingz 2.0
"I think that’s the challenge for him now. It’s been the best part of a couple of years since we worked with him, it’s difficult to say exactly the position that he finds himself and where he is with it all. But for every player that’s not with us, there is always an opportunity if they can seize the form and have the level of performances."
