…..Chelsea paying Man Utd £5m NOT to sign Sancho.

I remember having a discussion with maybe @Billy Dean some years ago about this fella being overhyped. Very lucky boy to be playing football in this day and age.

Well, technically its the loan fee

I saw this even under Favre at Dortmund, lazy player - perhaps ego got in the way, not the first case and certainly not the last

He showed glimpses to resurrect his level at Chelsea tbf but there is no light switch to become a hard worker

Proper hatchet job on this lad from the media recently, have they learned nothing about mental health? He very clearly mentioned he had something going on and the BBC put out a massive list of his failures front and centre on the sports site yesterday. It's not his fault he wasn't fancied at UTD, he helped Dortmund get to the final in the CL, he helped Chelsea win the trophy last week, he will fit in somewhere and be a success, its his salary i believe, nearly 300k a week?

….i’ve always thought he was overhyped as a footballer, goes missing in games, flatters to deceive. No idea about his off-field issues, although he has a history of ill discipline in respect of turning up late for meetings and training.

Looked like a player enjoying his footy at Dortmund. I think that's a hard thing to get back once it has been lost.
 
Has he been any good?
Or does he just join the ether of Premier League footballers who cost £30-£40m who aren't much better than an £8m footballer
Haven’t watched him since he played for Barça, a similar profile to Araujo - less discipline/focus but better on the ball
