    All things considered, Sancho is my all-time disappointing United signing. We need to count our lucky stars if a Saudi club takes him off our hands.

    Watching him at Dortmund, he was electric. I thought he was going to be amazing for us.

    The truth is, he has a poor mentality and his dribbling doesn’t really count for much in the PL as he’s neither fast or strong. I can count on one hand how many good games he has had for us. He’s mostly anonymous.

    If the deal to Saudi falls through. They should just swap players. Maybe a new environment will help.

    How many players in recent memory have so spectacularly torpedoed their own career as Sancho? He was hyped to be one of the top players of his generation and instead, he puts in no effort, gets given plenty of time and space, then pubically insults his manager at the very lightest criticism and refuses to back down.

    Can’t see Richarlison leave tbh. It still looks like he has a lot to give to Spurs and is willing to fight. Plus he holds the CL in high regards and has a chance to qualify for it with us.

    I know Henderson only went this summer, but I’d be surprised if someone as outspokenly left wing as Richarlison went to Saudi Arabia

      If you asked Henderson if he was left wing or right wing he’d tell you with a straight face that he prefers the breast. Richarlison is actually politically conscious, not just when it suits him.

    Sancho to Saudi Arabia is a get out of jail free card for both club and player. United should do a bundle deal with Casemiro and Varane

      How is it a get out of jail card for Sancho.

      He is still talented and by going to Saudi hes retiring…

      How’s a Saudi move a jail-free card for him, besides it just being a massive pay cheque? He was touted as someone who would go on to be one of the best players of his generation. It’d be a massive shame if he just gives up and retires before even turning 25.

      I think its also way too early for Richarlison to consider it too - he’s only 26.

        Assuming it’s a short enough contract he could go out there and use the clean slate to prove commitment and (at least to that leagues level) skill. Still plenty of time for him to return to Europe.

        Such is the problem with golden handcuffs. There are probably a dozen clubs where Sancho would be a good fit and see him recapture his Dortmund form, none of them can afford the financial package it would take to find out.

          the problem for any of those clubs is that he’s only recapturing his form if they can get him to sort out his attitude and approach to his fitness, that’s a massive risk.

        We should be keeping Sancho until at least we know if Ten Hag is still managing us come August 2024. A January loan is all we should be targeting.
