Many underestimate what the well-feeling-factor can mean with an offensive player. Sancho's xA and even xG at first did not even drop that much - but he was heavily overperforming at BVB as he felt well there - and underperforming at United.

Completely agree. Top post. I'm getting this tattooed on my arse.
Pep tried to stop him leaving but couldn't.
Also tried to take the pen off Fullkrug 
, you've been there 5 minutes mate and you're only on loan.
, you've been there 5 minutes mate and you're only on loan.Ah yes the Glazers and the club structure are to blame for him being too weak, slow and lazy for the Premier League.
Same way the club structure is to blame for Ten Hag being tactically shite
You haven’t seen him play much with us have you ?
Sky sports label the Dortmund highlight vid "Sancho shines again"
Plays shit against a shit side except for diving to win a penalty. Cretins.

Some of you You’d think he was Martin Keown ffs!

. He can score 3 goals against Bayern and still will be bashed here.Good, let’s have the media hype him up to unbelievable levels again, I remember one journo slating Southgate for not playing him at the EC in 2021 as he was likely to show himself as the best player in the Premier League within a few months.
Hype him up and get that price as high as possible.
He brought it all in himself with his shite attitude and work ethic. He couldn't hack it in the premier league, simple as that, wouldn't matter who we had as manager. A blind man could see this.You're right we made great use of him
Pep also wanted to buy Alexis and Maguire. Everyone makes mistakes.
I'm not sure that Pep ever wanted to buy either one !! I think he wanted to create interest in them so that another club would buy them.
Almost like the BL is a slower, less competitive league where he'll get more space. Who'd have thought it.
Keep it going Jadon. Keep upping that value so hopefully it helps with a sale.
How did he do today?
I’m not following him but I read (above) that he won a penalty (which was either a bit of a magic or extremely soft/fortunate depending on who you believe
) and then not much after!Sounds like conspiracy theory guff in fairness.
Just sounds like excuses that we were unable to make use of a skillset like his, happens often with us.
This isn’t true. You can rate a youth player, yet feel it’s too soon for them. Said player can then run down their contract and choose to go elsewhere due to a perceived lack of opportunity. We don’t even need to go too far to find an example regarding this.
For clarification, I’m not saying that Sancho is XYZ. I’m simply arguing against the notion that “X club or manager wouldn’t let Y player leave in the first place if they rated them”
I genuinely don’t care if we didn’t tbf, anyone who would happily waste a season of their prime years over a minor grudge whilst on 200k a week is exactly kind of player whose contributed to our perpetual banter era and one who’ll never deserve to be a top level talent IMO. If David Beckham at the height of his fame could be frozen out and dutifully work his way back, then Jadon fecking Sancho who couldnt even get a place in Gareth Southgate’s lovey dovey England squad at his best can suck it up for a couple of months before angling for a move. I genuinely don’t care who the manager is, he fecking sucks and we’re well rid.
Mental that anyone thinks we should’ve indulged him. He’s the absolute epitome of a downed tool.

Yes, we maybe could have done better but his attitude (through other clubs too) is awful and the epitome of overpaid, overindulged modern celebs. The two things can coexist?
But even if we change our manager, coaching, tactics… I still don’t want him anywhere near us.
I’ve a feeling someone like Newcastle or PSG will go for him for a really decent fee if he keeps this up till the end of the season
What skill set? You can count on one finger the number of good senior performances he's had away from Dortmund for club and country, maybe a league where he's offered a ton of space and where defending is a step below is perfect for him.
I'm still not sure what is actually supposed to be his "skillet" other than decent one-two play here and there.
Maybe you should watch a match withoht United involvement every once in a while
He's good in tight spaces, with good link up play, good short passing with some dribbling.
He showcased none of that here or for England.
Watched him multiple times for Dortmund and England before joining united and never stood out as anything more than decent.
Nah, he's looked average outside of the BL. He's not quick enough or strong enough for the PL and he's not good enough with the ball at his feet to make up for these other deficiencies. Looks like he's better when he's got more space, can play his little give and goes etc but he won't have the same chances here.
This. Happy for him. Happier for United.

He's already playing the big man, entitled shite.
Füllkrug himself said after the match that Sancho asked to take the pen. Füllkrug said he was going to take it, Sancho accepted and continued to support him.
Swanning into the side and demanding a pen straight away though? Strikes me as pretty entitled as the new kid.
He wants to score, nobody took issue with it as far as I can tell. You can dislike the behaviour though, I get that.
The striker that refused to give it up took issue, no?
His key England moment is making a 40 year old part timer pull his hamstring.
Or missing a pen in the Euro final.
Stand by what I said when he went there, it's an absolute steal for Dortmund if they can get him firing again. He clearly suits German football. This is good for us, we should be able to get a good fee in the summer. He's finished at United.
