He's shown to be much better than Rashford and Martial so far in their careers. People need to be less biased.

Why are we comparing a ST to a winger? If you compare Sane's best season is 10 goals 11 assists in the PL.
Rashford has 14 goals 7 assists this season.
Sane is a 100 mill player. Bayern got a bargain.
Sane at his best showed more than Martial (wide) and Rashford. You could probably put him just behind Mbappe if he's playing fully fit when it comes to assessing his level of talent
Martial yes - but Rashford at his best this season was at the same level as Sane.
Nah Sane is good but a little overrated. Martial and Rashford are on his level, in fact Rashford is better.
Never got the Sane hype, I feel like he's been average more than he's been good, but when he was good he was very good.
It feels like all this was happening around the time there was a City/Pep love in on here.

Think him being injured for a year has made people forget just how good he is. The boy is a star.
Think so as well, he'll be tearing it up at Bayern potentially playing on the same flank as Davies
If I remember things correctly, people often downplay these kind of tweets or pictures regarding a player missing. "Nothing in it", "it's just a photo", etc. But those players actually left the club more often than not. Based on that argument alone, I'd say this one is a done dealio. Waiting for confirmation any minute now.
I know it’s a different level, but I work at a League Two club in the media department and we would never use players who are going to leave in releases like this. Same with annual calendars, those you think may leave in the summer etc, always have them in months before May etc.
I always thought Sane had something of the young Giggs about him. How useful a left-footed player is on the left wing is an interesting discussion these days though. Coming back off a serious injury and didn't seem to be developing at City strangely. Perhaps due to extravagant individual talent rather than effectively following team orders.
The higher the level, the more careful a media department have to work. This is as good as Dortmund's official statement to me
On the contrary, things can also move fast.The higher the level, the more careful a media department have to work. This is as good as Dortmund's official statement to me
United had Ronaldo in the home kit before selling, Hazard modelled Chelsea's home kit before he went to Madrid etc..
Anyway this is a smaller of the much larger fires surrounding Sancho. I think it's clear to see they're not happy and he isn't either.
I hope you are right
Sounds like completely rubbish. Why would Pep give Bayern an evaluation of one of his players BEFORE he left the club? I slightly could understand it if Bayern asked him recently, although I very much doubt that they're on such bro terms that'd they'd share references to each other given that they're still rivals on an international stage.
But asking when he was still a City player? How would that look like: "Ey Pep, we're interested in taking one of your best young talents. Any reference on his character and abilities?" "Yeah sure, he's very hard to control, wouldn't take him" "Okay cheers then, we won't"
It was when the decision was made that Sancho was leaving and prospective buyers had started doing their due dilligence.
Brassel also said that Bayern weren't put off and still tried to sign him.
Thank feck business doesn’t work that way then. Obviously we have no way to see how it all actually works internally, but you can rest assured that they won’t be that petty.
It may be a strategic coup / bluff knowing that BVB will end the season with € 50m loss. 
Ed is there to save them.
Ed is there to save them.I agree Sane is a brilliant player and that Bayern got a bargain getting him for less than £50M but no chance he is a £100M player.
Not sure how much Sane would help their case but I'm glad it looks like we're getting closer to official negotiations starting up if club sources seem convinced Dortmund can be talked down from their current valuation
The same Yaya that called him racist?
rightIs this a typo?
Greenwood still has it all to prove. Sancho is great but he still has some ways to go to hit 17-18 Sane levels
The same Yaya who played under him at 2 different clubs so he'd have a lot better insight than myself or the tabloidsThe same Yaya that called him racist?
Yeah all top managers have butted heads with top players. I think it's a lazy correlation to assume Pep has a problem with "personality" (whatever the feck that means, as far as I know Bayern under him didn't necessarily play with 11 eunuchs)The same Yaya who played under him at 2 different clubs so he'd have a lot better insight than myself or the tabloids
Was thinking this too - maybe the suggestion that City would also want Sancho after losing Sane? Also I read the article and it literally gives nothing new in information.

After what Pep said about Sancho there is no way City will be in the running (at least why Pep is in charge. I think he really dislikes him.)
Guardiola said: "No, no, no. He decided to leave. Why should he decide to come back?
"We wanted him to stay like Eric Garcia and Phil (Foden) but he decided like Leroy now and myself, when I decided to move to other countries to be a manager, to move.
"When he decided to move to Dortmund it's not because he is going to decide to come back one year later. It would make no sense. He didn't want to be here, so that is why I think he doesn't want to come back here."
No chance. Are you inSane?
The numbers pre pandemic were outrageous and will be outrageous again in no time.
Hes the best left footed left winger in the game right now. Will be surprised if hes not being heralded half way through next season
With Sane going to Bayern for £45m with add-ons of £10m, I think £60m plus add-ons would be the right price for Sancho?
eh...the fact that he had only 1 year left on his contract significantly lowered the price, plus the fact that Sane is coming off a serious injury.
I still think to get sancho it'll cost 80M plus 20 in add ons or something like that.
that article is so poorly written. doesnt read very well at all.
I reckon we will get him for £90m upfront and £20m in add ons. Woody get it done and let's start our walk to our rightful place, its been a long time coming.
Rashford has never shown the level of Sane. Let's not kid ourselves just because Sane's been injured. And before anyone gets the goals stats out Sane has comparable numbers over last three seasons despite being in and out the team and Rashford has often played as a striker.
Not knocking Rashford who may go on to have a great career but you only have to watch them to see Sane is special while Rashford is good.
Your post is completely arse backwards.
You are forgetting Sane's level.
Well it's common knowledge that both, Rashford & Martial are on crazy wages which neither of them deserve as they've not shown consistency. As for the Sane debate, I think Sane edges out Rashford and Martial. A lot of people these days like to compare Rashford and CR7 and honestly, despite the stats being in Rashford's favor, CR7 was way ahead. I love Martial and all but I don't think he would have remained as long as he has done with Fergie in-charge. Although the flipside argument could be that maybe Fergie would have gotten the best out of Martial.
If Sane is so good, why is there no outrage on him being let go? Imagine us letting go Rashford in a similar way, who in fact people think is a lesser player
Exactly. I think Sane is a good player but I think Rashford is special.If Sane is so good, why is there no outrage on him being let go? Imagine us letting go Rashford in a similar way, who in fact people think is a lesser player
Can someone redirect me to the Sancho thread, guess I wandered into Sane thread
