Sancho: a good move or not
Sancho has finally be unvieiled by the biggest club in the world π.
I'm particularly happy for the lad it's a dream move for him, I mean who wouldn't want to come to united.
What he brings to united
Defenders will surely have lots of headaches dealing him. An highly technical, creative player, he is known for his trickery, pace and use of feints in one-on-one situations. Praying for united versus barcelona so he can teach alba some lessons and my regular customer chelsea π
*On the right*
United have been lacking a natural right-sided winger for years, which is why Solskjaer has always been so keen on signing Sancho, who has racked up 50 goals and 57 assists in 137 appearances in all competitions for Dortmund.
In the past, the Norwegian has been forced to play the two-footed and incredibly versatile Mason Greenwood out wide, leaving Anthony Martial and Edinson Cavani to battle for the centre-forward role.
However, Greenwood prefers to play through the middle, so the acquisition of Sancho will mean his fellow England international will now be free to stake a claim for a starting spot in his best position.
Left side
One of Sancho's most attractive attributes is his versatility. Indeed, it is worth noting that he regularly played on the left flank last season in Dortmund's 3-4-3 formation, striking up a formidable partnership with Portugal wing-back Raphael Guerreiro.
However, it seems likely that Sancho will only be used on the left wing if United are short on numbers.
Finally No 9 role for greenwood
There has been talks about transitioning him into a centre-forward at some point. I hope he grabs the opportunity when it present itself this.
The increase in competition for places will also ensure that Solskjaer will always have a couple of potential game-changers on the bench.
No 10
The least likely but most intriguing option now available to Solskjaer is deploying Sancho as a No.10.
While his skills are best utilised in a wide role, as it allows him to cut inside and torment defenders with his "incredible dribbling skills", the former Manchester City youth-team star is capable of playing behind a striker, meaning he could stand in for Bruno Fernandes whenever required
Sancho's imminent arrival means that giving Fernandes a break is now a far more attractive option, given the England man could also shine as an attacking midfielder

With the kind of squad manchester united possess now it will be criminal for Solskjaer not to a win trophy for united this season
I don't think it's a good signing. They should have sign Cr7 instead of Sancho because Man Utd lacks a good finisher.
