Jadon Sancho’s Sizzling Start at Chelsea Leaves Manchester United Fans Deflated
Jadon Sancho’s departure from Manchester United was met with widespread disappointment, but the winger’s blistering form for Chelsea has left many fans of the Red Devils scratching their heads. In his first three games for the Blues, Sancho has already notched up three assists, a feat that has left his former team-mates in the Premier League wilderness.
Sancho’s incredible start to life at Stamford Bridge has sparked a lively debate among fans, with many wondering how he failed to deliver during his time at Old Trafford. His public feud with Erik ten Hag only added fuel to the fire, with many believing that the winger’s lack of application and poor attitude were the primary reasons for his downfall.
However, it’s clear that Sancho has rediscovered his mojo under Enzo Maresca’s guidance. His vision, pace, and creativity have been on full display, and he’s quickly become a fan favorite at Chelsea. His assist in Chelsea’s 4-2 win over Brighton was his third in as many games, a statistic that’s left Manchester United players struggling to keep up.
According to Squawka, Sancho has already provided more Premier League assists this season (3) than Manchester United players Bruno Fernandes, Alejandro Garnacho, Marcus Rashford, Mason Mount, Christian Eriksen, Joshua Zirkzee, and Kobbie Mainoo COMBINED (2). The numbers are stark, and it’s clear that Sancho has found a new lease of life under Maresca.
Chelsea’s addition of Sancho has undoubtedly bolstered their attacking options, and they’re reaping the rewards. After their opening day defeat to Manchester City, the Blues have recorded 13 points from five games, a run that’s left them looking like one of the top contenders for the Premier League title.
Sancho’s success is a damning indictment of Manchester United’s transfer dealings. The winger’s sale was met with widespread criticism, and it’s clear that the club got it wrong. However, for Sancho, it’s all about rediscovering his best form, and it seems he’s finally found it under Maresca.
