Erik ten Hag questioned the level of Jadon Sancho's Man Utd training performances, but earned an incredible response in the form of a social media statement from the winger.
As Jason Sancho's finger hovered over the send button, you wonder whether a second thought was given to what he was about to do and the potential ramifications that now lie ahead.
That isn't likely to be the case with Sancho just yet. His social media comments were clearly more impulsive and heartfelt than Ronaldo's cascade of half-truths, which were designed to free him from a club where the manager had rightly decided he no longer fit.In Sancho's case, this should be the peak of his career. He is 23 years old, a £73m star back in the Premier League after taking the bold and brave step to move to Borussia Dortmund as a teenager.
"The Bundesliga is perfect preparation for the Premier League," said Ten Hag. "[The Premier League is] tougher. He was given time away from the squad last season to overcome "physical and mental" issues and didn't play between October 22 and February 1, but when he did return there was a brief upturn in form and confidence. Ten Hag was widely praised for his handling of the player and his comments from early February on that decision are worth revisiting.
In light of his honest appraisal on Sunday, "I back every player where I can" now looks an interesting comment. Clearly, Ten Hag feels he can no longer back Sancho. It is time for the player to take stock as well, however. He clearly feels wronged by Ten Hag's public comments, but there were concerns over Sancho's training level at times with England. He is a long, long way back from the international set-up at the moment.
