    Not to dis Mase (who is not really a wing-forward) but to indicate why we should improve so much with Sancho.

    Good thread on what to expect from Sancho and what he'll bring to the team, provided he's used the right way.

    How deeply ironic that the moment his move to United is announced he finally finds himself in contention for a start for England. Even if the knock Saka picked up is the real reason behind it, still kind of funny since many believed it to be a thing (him not playing in the Prem).
    Could still be Southgate's (and England) secret weapon finally unleashed on the tournament...

    Rashford accidentally leaked that the transfer was done before it was made official by either club. With a tweet that said "Yes X." That was sent at night and then he woke up like 8hrs later, deleted the tweet and claimed he was hacked. Thing is, for the time he was 'hacked' he only tweeted that and something very on brand for him like maybe something about childhood hunger or something.

    Lol. Yeah. The OG title.

    How is that relative to Sancho, though?

    I posted a suggestion but I figured none of you lot listen to Sublime and didn’t get it so it’s cool. Haha.

    Just a play on the balance of our attack (or lack thereof) prior to getting Sancho. We offered little to nothing from the right, with everything going thru the left, which made us predictable (and easier to figure out/defend against)...

    Sancho wanting to move to Utd to improve his chances of playing for England has worked out pretty well…

    This is a good piece and part of I think a 6 part series that should be coming out in the next few weeks. Maram is a must follow for serious football fans and an absolute follow for United fans. One of the up and coming stars in viz/analytics.




    EDIT:

    I cannot really put into words how hyped I am for Jadon Sancho. I think since losing Keano, this is the longest we've gone without replacing a key player/position. In some respects, Sancho is a replacement for both Nani and Giggs (in his between the lines facilitator days).

    Paired with Bruno and Marucs/Pogba we'll finally have the supply line we should have. Very exciting times ahead.

    Couple of (leaked) Sancho pics in his new duds. Looking great! Definitely lots of rumors that the official announcement which coincides with the new sponsor/kit launch will be a big deal. Thursday, Friday perhaps?

    If that’s not Photoshop, they need to fire their photographer.

    Ole confirmed after today's game that there's just some paperwork left to complete between United and BVB and that Sancho will be announced soon.

    Edit: Beat me to it.

    Who Sancho? This is the best money we've spent since Vidic. Equivalent value in the transfer. He's a top 5 player itw by the time he hits his prime.
