Like Sancho, they'll be stuck with the dud for a few years yet until the players themselves realise they'd rather play than sit on the massive salaries they're getting. On both cases, I'd bet neither will be starting next season for Manure Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Posted January 29, 2023 Share Posted January 29, 2023 I don’t fully understand why Sancho has been mega axed like he did a Greenwood but Ten Bags has hung his reputation on Antony so he’s going to a more than fair crack of the whip. Suspect like a few he’ll be a lot better next season once he’s adapted a bit and has a proper preseason under him albeit still wildly overpaid albeit for Man Utd it doesn’t matter at all hence why they can just freeze Sancho out.

(cheeky loan for Sancho in the summer?) I like Sancho but he was hugely inflated by the bundi tax. I’m just not sure he can’t cut it at this level, not a top four guy. Seems frightened now he has no space. Could be wrong but if see bust in his future Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This just isn't true. He got by Burn plenty in that game. Joelinton was having to double up to help him. we had the most success down that side. Antony's end product that day was dreadful.

(cheeky loan for Sancho in the summer?) Sancho was fat and depressed by the sounds of it. I'm a big fan of how ETH has handled it. Sancho looks really lean in training and I'm excited to have him back. He's badly needed as an option on the right side. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Top 4 class. It’s just, can he put it together consistently? He’s a bit languid and passive. And needs team mates on a certain wave length that was never going to happen under Ralph. Saying that. I always preferred Saka. Even when Sancho was regarded as the bigger talent. I loved Saka’s application and mindset. Always getting on the ball, attacking his man time and again.

Paullow Posted January 29, 2023 Share Posted January 29, 2023 (edited) Two pretty strong teams in the Brighton vs Liverpool match, which is good to see generally. The keeper situation is strange - Liverpool have gone for Alisson, whereas Brighton have opted for Steele. I can half understand teams giving their back up a go in the cups, especially when not in the latter stages, but it's not great when there is such a gulf between the #1 and #2, and you feel it may cost them here. Hoping for a draw. Edited January 29, 2023 by Paullow Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted January 29, 2023 Share Posted January 29, 2023 (edited) Didn’t realise Alexis Mac Allister was actually a Spanish speaker and really Argentinian.

Fair enough, he does have ability not disputing that, but he often makes bad decisions, could be a number of factors, but you can compare him to someone like Mitoma and the difference in effectiveness in game is stark. I hope he can turn it around as he did look very good in the Bundesliga. If he’s struggling with his weight then it might just be a mental malaise. I think he would benefit from playing elsewhere. Only 22 so he’s got plenty of time Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
