Aye, nobody gives a shit about Chelsea. Utd sells. Bad Utd news sells even nore because so many people love revelling in the turbulence surrounding the club.It’s not odd at all, they will always hate everything we do and want to paint us as the bad guys and see us fail.
They also want Ten Hag out because he’s the best Manchester we’ve had in ten years and arguably one of the best in world football.
It’s the same reason no one seems to give a shit how badly Chelsea are doing after spending a billion pounds in two seasons.
They're not ideal but the point is still better than Sancho there.Non of the mentioned players are wide options (prehaps Mount could do it). And it has already happened since we started the season with potential 5 wide players and now we have two and non of those absences happend due to injury
They've apparently had a meeting, but are on polar opposites here - i.e. deadlocked. EtH feels he is owed an apology, Sancho clearly doesn't believe he's a bad trainer plus he's already undermined the manager in public (after fairly innocuous comments from a boss who has previously supported you)....I agree that the manager should stamp his authority on this but that's why I think an immediate meeting would be best. Hag can find out exactly what Sancho's problem is, Sancho gets a chance to explain himself and then the boss decides what to do.
Can’t stand that Abramovitch/Boehly project but it’s not like there’s no stories at all:Aye, nobody gives a shit about Chelsea. Utd sells. Bad Utd news sells even nore because so many people love revelling in the turbulence surrounding the club.
I think they see him taking the hardline, for some reason see it as being unfair on the English players. It's Brexit journalism, can't have Johnny Foreigner insulting our lads, it's not on. Like when poor old Harry got an earful off Onana. If it were Dyche and Pickford doing these things they'd be lauded for being hard asses.
But you can almost guarantee these same journalists will have slated other players for downing tools and blame them for managers getting the sack. There's multiple levels to their hypocrisy.
This can only end with Sancho leaving, no doubt he'll end up being somewhat of a journeyman and we'll get the hard luck tell all interview in about 10 years.
Im not sure i understand your point?The relentless focus on FFP has been very detrimental to our squad-building and morale, wouldn't you say? Surely the financiers on top realise this by now and take a different approach.
There's a couple, but nobody really cares about Chelsea.Can’t stand that Abramovitch/Boehly project but it’s not like there’s no stories at all:

I was never comfortable to discuss a player's mental issues on the CAF. The reasons to that areGiven current issues I think it’s safe to assume that his mental issues last year were most likely not associated with depression as everyone had convinced themselves but rather attitude related. Not certain by any stretch of imagination but I think we’d be handling this differently now if he had indeed been suffering from deep depression a mere year ago.
Still find it curious that I was ridiculed endlessly for suggesting he should have been loaned out after 6-12 months to build back some confidence and also realize that he can’t take his position at the club for granted, and it basically turned out that this would have probably saved his career or at least given him a chance to fix a few issues.
Repeat a lie a thousand times and it becomes the truth. Jose publicly moans to see a reaction from the player. His whole man management is confrontational. Does not work on current generation of players.Jose just complains about his players to make himself look better.
Any stories in the media supporting Sancho? Ive not seen any.Aye, nobody gives a shit about Chelsea. Utd sells. Bad Utd news sells even nore because so many people love revelling in the turbulence surrounding the club.

Perhaps. But there is a wider discussion to be had here.Not sure if you’re trying to just be funny but it’s a bit of a woefully ignorant thing to say.
He might apologise at some point but his career here is over regardless.I think this ends with Sancho apologizing and him working his way back into the team. I hope that the reality of the situation has now sunk in with Sancho and Ten Hag's stance has taught him that he cant feck about with him.
Wouldnt surprise meThen he must be an idiot to listen to someone whose career was over before turning 30.
No, I was specifically speaking in relation to video game addiction and oversleeping.We only think there is a "mental health" issue because ETH, who's not a native English speaker said, "Sometimes there are circumstances with fitness and mood. We got a drop of level and sometimes you don't know why or what is causing it. That is what we're doing now to try to get him back there. It's a combination of physical but also mentally."
My sense is that he wasn't talking about Sancho's "mental health" in the medical sense, he was talking about his attitude, mentality, motivation, focus etc. The sorts of thing sports psychologists deal with.
That is some heavy metal surrealist punk poetry that bolded part is.Perhaps. But there is a wider discussion to be had here.
For some folk mental health has turned into a weapon to be wielded in order to validate dogshit behaviour. I can’t help but think Sancho falls into that category. Not that he himself has mentioned mental health, of course. But plenty of others have.
Maybe it is over. But both Ten Hag and the club have reason to get him back into the fold.He might apologise at some point but his career here is over regardless.
It was over even before any of this.
I don't think so.Any stories in the media supporting Sancho? Ive not seen any.

Like it or not, his salary is a massive hit on our FFP balance sheet. It is not practical to just cut him or leave him in the reserves indefinitely.
I think this is one of the most reasoned posts of the thread.I was never comfortable to discuss a player's mental issues on the CAF. The reasons to that are
a- its not my line of expertise
b- I have no direct contact with the guy
c- I am very aware that the club and players hire PR teams that can spin everything to oblivion. While there are genuine cases of mental issues out there I am also aware that are any things that can be buried under that tree including any player's attitude problems, the club trying to weasel itself out of a mess (ex spending silly money on the wrong type of player) etc.
The scope of my original argument was that this situation was unsustainable. A 250k-350k player is expected to perform. Failure to do that would lead to repercussions on every level from admin (who'll flag this as waste of money), right to management (a manager will have to rely on such player) right to the squad as a whole. As we learnt from the Sanchez mess no one likes to do double and triple the work for less pay.
Ultimately there are players who simply aren't suited to play for big clubs. The pressure to perform week in week out is simply not for them. Having said I think that ETH had tackled this brilliantly. He tried the disciplinarian approach, the arm on the shoulder approach and then the nudge in public approach. Its a shame that Sancho seem to refuse to respond to anything
Hamstringchester United - Samaritanchester City 3-1 a.e.t.This is like saying you are sick of all these muscular injuries because we are not Hamstringchester United.
What does "done here" look like?I don't think so.
I think he's done here.
It's what he deserves.
Maybe is a fan of George Remus from Boardwalk Empire. Or the Rock.Zebs wants to know why Daniel Harris is referring to himself in the third person

Feels like a made up story.
He's not & the Daniel Harris understands thing is some weird shit he always does for some reason but yeah he's not joking about the reason, whether it's true or not feck knowsI think he's joking.
Turn things around? He should be ruthlessly sold as soon as possible.I hope he can turns things around.
I'm glad ETH has done this, put the emphasis on Sancho to sort himself out once and for all or his career is going to nose dive quickly.
I am afraid that we're past that. Sancho doesn't trust anything that the manager throws at him and the manager won't risk his reputation at his former club to help out a player who is disrespectful towards his superiors and can't be arsed to train properly.Ten Hag should be picking up the phone to his Ajax pals. Loaning him to Ajax may be a way for him to find some form again.
The way Ajax are going, they could use the help.
At this point, its about showing that Sancho can still play football, in the hope that there is a club out there daft enough to take on his wages. Forget getting a big transfer fee for him. He will be harder to shift that Maguire and McTominay combined.
It should also cross peoples minds that mental health is a serious thing. But being an arrogant brat who is unwilling to take responsibility is also a thing. A more common thing when you think about it.Crossed my mind too...
