So sad how happy I’ll be to be rid of him, when I was so excited for us to sign him. Total disaster of a signing.
Jadon Sancho (Out) | Chelsea reach deal to sign on loan with obligation to buy

Ornstein saying loan + obligation
Great result if that's the case
Me neither, at least, I don't think he'll be in a top league.
Where does he rank in the list of all time worst transfers for Utd?
He's got to be right at the top for me, at worst he's top 3. He's been an utter disaster on every level. The one positive might be we found someone stupid enough to take him off our hands early.

So many fans can't wait to see the back of him. If this goes through it'll be celebrated like a new signing. 
Good enough
The thing is, it frees us up from PSR constrictions so it actually allows new signings, so it's the same as a new signing.So many fans can't wait to see the back of him. If this goes through it'll be celebrated like a new signing.
Very close to worst. The effort, attitude, overall price, and pure fuss he’s been has been horrendous. Achieved nothing in what 3 years he’s been here?
Absolutely superb. Very interesting now to find out how much we’ve obligated them to.
Loan + option to Chelsea = terrible for us
Loan + obligation to Chelsea = could be good for us unless he decides to be world class for them

Doesn't matter, wash our hands of him
Good stuff, would prefer a permanent now but time running out and this is the next best thing.
It's basically the same...
Bloody hell, that's positively gushing coming from you.
I think so too, and that's if he even ever plays for them.
If he signs for Chelsea I have a strong feeling he's just trading our bench for theirs, another few years getting paid high wages to do feck all.
I think it's a bad move for him and for Chelsea, great for us though so hope it happens
If he does then good for him and Chelsea for taking a massive gamble. As long as he's not around OT stinking up the place or playing Fifa online while we're getting battered.
if a team like chelsea are after him, we should offer him an improved contract to protect his value.
Loan + option is not washing our hands at all
1. If he is great for them, we made our direct rival stronger and may cost us top four league position
2. If he is bad for them, they end up not buying him and next Summer we will have to try to sell him again except in much weaker position and with less clubs wanting him
Lose-lose situation
It's an obligation.
Ran my eyes over Chelsea's Shed End message board and they don't seem particularly enthused about signing him eitherSo many fans can't wait to see the back of him. If this goes through it'll be celebrated like a new signing.
£40m with addons rising to £55m I think is a fair fee.
Premier league rival, he's young and has a high potential. They spent more on Mudyrk.
Also it would mean next year we end up with a nice sum to start the window with. And his wages off the books.

Yeah 3 seasons.
When you think we were chasing him for years, huge transfer fee, monster wages. And look what we got.
I don't think in his entire time here he had one good 90 minute performance. There were very very occasional moments where he did something good, but most of the time he was an unfit non-entity.
I think his stinking attitude makes him the number 1 worst signing. There's a lot of competition for that spot but I think he wins. It's very telling that I don't think i've seen a single Utd fan argue we should keep him. Normally with even the worst players you get the odd 1 or 2 defending them, but nothing with Sancho.
The obligation could be conditional, no?
They aren’t paying £55m for him.
His book value is £25m, we're not getting anywhere near £40m.
That's fantasy land territory.
He's going to be Di Maria levels of fondness in no time. Watch this space for shit that is going to be leaked about him. Awful professional, hence the last day for a loan.
It's fitting his last act in a Utd shirt was to saunter up to take a shite penalty and cost us the game.
Vibes FC
True!
Man are they going to be fecking gutted when they have to stump up that fee next summer after watching him for 12 months.
What we hoping for at best? 35m?
An absolute clown of a player joining a circus of a club, good riddance. I’m glad to see the back of him, he doesn’t have the brains to play for a serious football club.
Yeah, it's much more positive if it is an obligation
Was that confirmed?
Wonder what Chelsea fans think about this.
Why on Earth would Chelsea want him? They've so many wingers already, and better/cheaper ones than Sancho at that. Only thing I can think of is Boehly went to confession and had to atone for ripping us off with Mount.
If it's a permanent transfer or loan + obligation we just have to thank our lucky stars. His wages alone are £27M total (for the next two years) saved, plus any fee we can get for him. Would be an amazing sale.
