Some of the reports emerging that his team mates have not been happy with Sancho are the most telling to me. Seems, to me, ETH has tried everything, including his break last season to get fit. Looks like Erik has the full support of the dressing room, unlike Sancho. If he wants to revive his career he needs to publicly apologise and get his head down in training and demonstrate why he’s entitled to such a huge salary. Last chance saloon for him now. Fail to deliver and I’m sure the club’s legal department will be looking for ways to terminate his contract.
Erik ten Hag vs Sancho
- Thread starter Someone
- Start date
"You call that a proper coil, Ten Hag?! Booooo!"
Saudis & the MLS will expect that too, no coach worth his salt will accept laziness and tardiness especially from someone who is not doing the business on the pitch, I get that some players are given allowances on punctuality and effort if they perform on the pitch but Sancho is in shit form for 2 years
Cas and Varane were top earners at Madrid, Sanchez and DDG got their stupid contracts under Woodward but Sanchez was also a top earner ar Arsenal, and Bruno started on 180k and was given a raise due to his vital performances, Sancho arrived during Murtough who I expect wouldn't sanction 350k.
And most of the times, these players get basic plus bonuses, some of these bonuses are as simple as appearance bonus (Sanchez got something like 50k for every match he played, hence why his total wage was huge) and some of these bonuses are harder to achieve for example winning titles or winning an individual award (like best GK or top scorer) the 350k for Sancho could be true if he unlocked all of his bonuses that might include some difficult ones like winning CL or winning Balon D'or but I truly find it hard to believe Sancho is on the same bracket as Cas and Varane.
I mean the level will be that much lower that he can get by being a bit slower and probably have a good enough output to be worth it. He’s a very clever player and technically would be among the best in the league outside of some of the golden oldies Miami are wheeling out for their US tour.
Wonder if Nunes will criticise Pep in an angry tweet and get banished to the reserves before being sold in January?

Interesting take, maybe more behind the scenes than we know
Anyone defending Sancho in this is a clown.
We have lost 3 fantastic players. Not matter why we lost them, we are now much weaker than we were before. I know that two of them might come back, not for a while.
Of course it’s you who’s posting this. Aren’t you the same person who said Ten Hag was ranting against Sancho? Now you are using the wisdom of fecking O’hara of all people as if he has a point. Pathetic.
Mental health, mental health, mental health, mental health. Nonsense. Fecking sick to death of that being used in certain circumstances as some unbreakable shield to criticism and consequences.
Shows our standards, we knew what he was like and still brought him.
Joking apart, people in the scene talk. Ten Hag going public would have changed nothing.
I find it difficult to work out who is who between Sancho and Rashford when they’re both on the pitch as they’re both useless.
3 fantastic players? One never performed for us since he was signed from Dortmund. One never played for us in almost 2 years and the third one is one of our least effective players when he plays interms of output. We are weaker interms of quantity not quality. Antony is the only loss if you stretch that argument. We would be fine, don’t worry.
Imagine going on national radio and admiting you were a lazy f*cker too
Never once has Jamie O'Hara had an "interesting take"
You're embarrassing yourself mate.
Now that last interview, where probably someone like his mum or his gorlfriend aat down with him beforehand to help him sort his mind - that would be exactly the right interview to send to Sancho, and to send to Jamie O’Hara, 23, and to send to Jamie O’Hara 30-something, about to go on a TALKsport interview.
Jamie O'Hara is able to relate with Sancho, then we need to ship our Sancho even faster.
Honestly, I'm starting to wonder if ETH's decision to let Sancho go away last season was to keep him away from the squad full stop.

Who the feck is the press officer? Why were these eejits allowed to ask so many questions about Sancho?

Great fans
O’Hara’s a clown who’s best ignored. He’s never said anything that’s worth listening to ever.
I swear some people just want to be edgy
One thing i love is EtHs ability to make the press look like morons.
And to the person comparing Sancho to Rashford. Seriously?
My proposed wording is vastly better -- basically telling the media to feck off and ask another question -- than what ETH actually came up, which has ignited a firestorm. Unless, of course, ETH's objective was to create the very firestorm that he's now engulfed in, in which case his wording was pure perfection.
Yep as we haven’t had a decent striker in….. years have we. One that is here for the long term hopefully Hojlund.
Rashford is that guy who usually scores our goals...
And it’s nothing to do with being edgy, it’s about having a standard of how the club and players should be performing. And no disrepect to Rashford fan boys but he won’t be the main man in any title winning side.
Pep had a melt down with Cancelo in public and he ended up winning treble.
Not saying it always works but why do you think it won't work? Ole took 'good manager' approach and it didn't work. Time for these prima donna players to take accountability.
@mu4c_20le is an absolute troll, pay no attention to his posts is the best thing you can do
Ten Hags done everything he can for Sancho, clearly he has discipline issues which go back to his days at City. He's another one who could be one of the best, all the ability but doesn't have the right mentality...I could count on one hand the amount of decent games he's had, and he's been here two seasons. Doubt we'll see him play again, phased into the background and shipped out in Jan, just another sign that the club has failed miserably in recruitment, spending vast sums on mediocrities for the past decade.
That's exactly what he did do.
100% with the Manager on this one. Sancho has had his chance, last chance saloon.
Sancho and Antony are in no way or shape fantastic. It was our mistake to rely on them to start with.
I completely forgot they bought him. His first touch is better than a lot of our first teamers and Pep is still not satisfied. Talk about standards. Same high standards that ETH is trying to apply but people don't like it because he hurt little old Sancho's feelings.
That's the attutude that took him from the PL to non league in a few years.
You don't agree that it's made a bigger circus than we already had? Ok then.
I'm guessing Sancho and ETH had already discussed it behind closed doors so it should have been left at that. Going to the media doesn't mean you have more authority. It achieved nothing and just created more problems. And now he seemingly has a player that he has even less authority over after it all.
That's a lot posts for a newb......wonder why?
