Chill. You really think United are going to play a 5-3-2 for even 60% of the rest of the season?
If anything a wing back system could be just as suited for him as back four systems. He’d be well suited to a 3-4-2-1/3-4-3 system.
It will take a manager with an attacking ethos to get the best out of Sancho, Greenwood, VDB etc. Ole is too green to get the best out of these players while he's still finding his feet in trying to understand the identity of this team.
Ah you could possibly Victor Moses him.
Solskjaers a chancer. He literally hasn't got a clue what he's actually working towards. He stumbles on something and runs with it until it stops working.
Monumental waste of talent though
Playing in bundesliga is much different
No pressing, no pressure, slow tempo
Not surprised

Erm...
Should rotate with Bruno at CAM
Better than not playing him. Ah wingbacks in a good attacking 3-5-2 see a lot of the ball in advanced positions.
It won't be a permanent formation change. This is just to steady the shitfest.
We’re absolutely not playing 3-5-2 indefinitely. We had to steady the ship today. Young jadon will settle in before too long and will get plenty of game time
There's no reason we can't play the variant of that formation Chelsea play a lot, with two 10s instead of two CFs.

It happens everywhere. Look at other young attacking players who have been bought for similar money and very few hit the ground running, improving on what they did previously. This is one thing that money cannot ever really address: you can buy the best talent, but integrating them and getting an immediate return is no easier. So often they just look like kids again.
Let’s give it some time. If United are playing well and winning, someone will have to be on the bench looking in.
This.
Difference is Moses was a natural winger who always worked hard defensively anyway. Same with Young and Valencia here. With Sancho, he's not a natural winger who likes to hug the touchline, beat his man and whip in a cross, and, from a defensive pov, is a bit of a liability.
To scout him for as long as we did and end up in this position of not having a clue what to do with him is so silly, but also typical United.
Wont see him much. Rashford and Greenwood are clearly preferred. Good luck to him.
Personally I'd be more comfortable if that was a 28 year old running down his contract than a kid we chased and spunked a load of cash on.
And it's integrating I'm concerned with. I wouldn't worry about poor form as much as being so peripheral.
Tis silly, and he's young yet. So all may be rosy after Christmas.
He will be fine. Its a long season and we are in a bit of crisis.
He hasn't the work ethic or strength of Moses so not a chance
Yep
Hence plenty of time!
He could easily play in Bruno's position.
No, he's not identical to Moses, but wouldn't have to be if the set up was tweaked, with three CB and 2 DF I think your wing backs could be of a more adventurous variety.
Bruno was playing in a right attacking midfield role today, which Sancho will do well in.
We do need a Hakimi-esque wing back though.

There's no chance he gets in ahead of Greenwood or Rashford. He's not even ahead of Lingard currently.
Cavani, CR7, Rashford and Greenwood are our strikers.
He'll have to Duke it out with Lingard to be Bruno's backup and I don't think he'll accept being back up at all.
This post reads like a parody but its actually true
He has been taken aback by the pace of the Premier League, but we saw this with Donny last season. He eventually dropped out and never fit into tactics/formation we were trying to play.
I still hope, our board are proactive for a change and appoint a new manager in the International break.
Hopefully! Christmas is the time for miracles, after all!
Has he played centrally for Dortmund?
Whilst this is arguably possible we could almost certainly get a better right wing back with the money we could sell Sancho for.
Relax. Martial and Lingard will probably go so that means there will be games for him.
Between him and VDB, the amount of money wasted potentially is frightening
And Lingard seems to be ahead of him in the pecking order now which is a terrible sign.
Let's face it its over for him at United.
He has slipped into Ole's abyss same as Van De Beek Amad and there's no way back from there

He was regularly dropping in to a flat 3 in midfield as well. Sancho would not do well at that.
Yeah, I just like him. And I don't like 3-5-2 so I have no idea how I ended up here.
throw in £30 million for Amad too
He ain't for displacing Bruno so he's competing with Lingard for the backup spot. That's not what he came here for so it won't be long till the toys are out of the pram.
