All this talk about “ceilings” really grind my gears. I feel like it’s the “Fifaziation” of real life football. As if there’s an invisible arbitrary number that looms of a player’s head to signify their future. Football, like life, can come at you at any time. All it takes is a mistimed tackle, a bad loan move, or tragedy to derail someone’s potential. That’s why I don’t give much weight to it because it’s impossible to accurately gage.
Sancho has shown nothing to be considered a better player than Martinelli. You can call him naturally more talented, but better? Nah. Not for me.
What Sancho has achieved so far in his career from Germany is nothing short of amazing. But this isn’t Germany. He starts from zero like every other new signing should. I mean Sancho has been worse than Pepe. You could even argue Sancho has been a worse signing than Maguire. At least Harry had some good performances under his belt. You can’t really say the same for Sancho.
