I'd imagine getting racially abused as a 20 year old for missing a pen probably puts a sour taste in the mouth when thinking about the national team.
Weird that people are saying Dortmund are his level etc when Haaland and Bellingham both left Dortmund and kicked on fine. Same with Gundogan and various others.
Haaland went to a city machine that’s well oiled and winning things.
Bellingham has gone to Real Madrid, again winning things in general and not in a bad moment.
United is absolutely a different assignment which will take a certain type of mentality to do well here. In the last 10 years name the signings that have truely worked with no questions asked? He is not alone in not doing well here, however, he is probably one of the least successful signings we’ve made, he looks way off the level we needed to turn it around. I’m going to say it’s mentality more than ability though.
so while it’s not unique to sancho, he’s not the level of beast required to make it here, with how things are at present. Nowhere near it. Would he do well at another premier league club? Probably not and that’s not down to his ability.
