This is my football manager tactics.
Sancho as a false 9 with Rashford on LW and Anthony on the RW.
Yes the chances of Sancho working well as a false nine are quite high. I only see 1 problem is that a false nine like Sancho won't work very well against a compact midfield and defence which will deny him space. A CF or a out and out striker is still the best option against such tactics since a CF can stay on the last line of defence to receive final balls from the midfield or the wings.
never praised Rashford general play. actually sancho miscontrolled at a rate of 2.2 per match compared to rashford 2 per match.
Rashford actually has assists and more frequent key passes although lower pass percentages.
Your summary is about right. Think they should all rotate over the course of the season (Rashford/Sancho/Antony) but by no means can I see the other 2 outright replacing Rashford. Good to have different options/styles e.g. for counter attack football etc.
I don't know, maybe Southgate could have used a player last night who can play quick one-twos with a no.9 to unlock an Italian defense, instead of low-socks Grealish who likes to dwell on the ball knowing the cameras are on him.
Has too many quiet performances for United even when he scores.
funny how the same thing can give totally different opinions, I think Sanchos close control and ability in tight spaces would work well against compact and tight defences
Not good enough for Sir Gareth.
He hasn’t shown a lot for southgate recently, has he?
If Rashford and Martial are out, do you think we might see him as a False 9? obviously a big game to try it from the start. Id rather see him tried there than watch Ronaldo lose the ball at every opportunity.

He scores today.
Think he might too.
I’ve been very close for a while to making a ‘Jadon Sancho’s record against the ‘Big Six’ thread to go with the one for Rashford and the one for Vardy in the FF. Small sample size but he’s already scored at the Etihad, Stamford Bridge and home to Liverpool for us. Important goals too.
Man City 6:3 Man Utd
Pointless player who is decent in the box. Shite defensively too.
He will really need to improve a lot if we want to compete with good teams.

He wasn't the only one but again another dismal performance. Might aswell have not played, no one would have noticed.
This guy pretty much destroyed almost all of our chances going forwards along with Rashford.
Can't pass, control or hold the ball. And it is like that for almost every game.

Absolutely abysmal.
Besides the odd side-footed finish he's been one of the most underwhelming signings I can remember and for us that's really saying something.

I kind of always knew that when Pep let go of Sancho that he really didn’t care and was speaking highly of Sancho just to be polite.
A very average player on 350k a week.

Embarrassing. Some people slaughtered me for saying Saka was better than him. He doesn't offer anything and is gassed by 60 minutes.
No excuses left for him. He isnt up to it.
Sigh.
Extremely disappointed. We might actually been mugged again by BVB
Worryingly poor
Was pretty awful today, not really taking off is he?
Everyone was dreadful but it's just another game where he had no impact. He's never going to frighten teams with his pace so when he gets the ball there has to be quality and there was none today, I'm not sure how he's ever going to be a player who isn't just on the periphery of things for us.
I think the biggest issue, beyond lack of pace and penetration, is he lacks heart and fight. No aggression or urgency in his game, good player when everything is going well but almost guaranteed to vanish when its gets tough. Luxury player.
He's a nothing player. Just nothing.
Defended him each time he's had pelters on here prior to this game, there's no defending that performance today.
Probably put in a stormer Thursday night then hide again vs Everton.

I had massive doubts about this guy, and he is just proving them right.
Horrible performance. 0/10. He’s so weak, lacks stamina and lacks explosiveness. He needs to hire a new personal trainer.
Zero aggression in his game. No heart or fight.
The worst is how he fakes his defensive runs. Terrible, yet again. People moaning over Grealish in the England setup and not Sancho needs to shut it
There have been enough games to finally conclude he is just shit for me. A lot of money flushed down the drain. I don't care if he isn't fast but the lack of intensity and interest in any physical duel is abysmal
Finding it hard as a PL winger. Might need to be adapted to a number 10 to get the best out of his skillset.
Too low intensity.
Maybe he should be coming off the bench rather than play the 60 minutes he normally does. He needs a spark.
Horrible today from him. Got bullied. So did everyone else, but he needs to step up.
Unfair to signal him out on a day like today , he was far from the only one who was very poor.
But worryingly game in game out he offers very little bar the odd moment here and there.
He is here long enough now to be settled in and making an impression , but he just has little to no impact in far too many games.
So far like so many others it has not been a successful signing.

The most worrying thing is that he's had close to a month off with no internationals. Why isn't he more fired up.
Antony on the other wing epitomises that when the team is playing bad, you can still influence the game by sheer will and ball ability.

When he’s bad he’s a complete ghost.
I think I've seen enough of him in a United shirt now to decide he's really pretty average. Substandard athleticism, good close control and technique in tight areas and average passing/crossing. Fair assessment? Overall a bit of a disappointment to be sure.
When he's bad, he's really bad. The problem is he has no outstanding physical attributes or a killer final ball either, even if he beats a man he's unable to really get into space to make something happen. Elanga or Pellestri even might have shown more heart than he did today.
