I like Sancho, I think he’s quality, but the time for trying to just add quality players with little thought of how they will fit in has surely passed for us.
If Sancho was coming to fill a LW void, or even play as a 10, I’d be all for it. As a RW, give me the two lefties in Greenwood and Amad. I don’t think Sancho is better than Greenwood anyway, and I have doubts as to whether he’s better than a Diallo who gets to play 100 games in a row for Dortmund either. I’m not anti-signings by any stretch. I’d pay the £150m for Haaland right now. I’d pay £100m for Frenkie De Jong. But Sancho solves little other than depth for me. And with limited resources, the players we bring in, especially for big money, need to be the ones that make a big difference to what we currently have.
