A compilation titled ‘Can Manchester United fans explain what they did to Jadon Sancho’ has gone viral after yet another tough season for the winger.
After impressing as a youngster at Manchester City’s youth teams, German Bundesliga side Borussia Dortmund sealed a reported £8 million deal to bring the then 17-year-old to the club in 2017.
Sancho produced a series of impressive displays whilst playing for Dortmund as he managed to score 50 goals in 137 appearances across all competitions.
As a result, United decided to fork out £73 million to lure Sancho to Old Trafford back in July of 2021.
At the time, it was believed that Sancho was the marquee signing of that summer but that was hampered by the sensational return of Cristiano Ronaldo.

During his first season as a Red Devil, Sancho struggled to find his best form and was hindered by injury problems.
Under Erik ten Hag in the 22/23 season, Sancho started well but then his form fell drastically.
Last season, he only managed seven goals in three assists in 41 appearances across all competitions.
Now, a compilation of Sancho’s best bits has gone viral, with a caption that read: “Can Manchester United fans explain what they did to Jadon Sancho.”
Fans were quick to react on social media.

One said: “Lol that's what happened to Sanchez when he left Arsenal..”
Another tweeted: “That’s Man Utd for you, they spoil your shine.”
A third fan added: “Look at the clips well and tell me he can beat players in this manner in Premier League, the league is too physical and fast for him to actually play in.”
Someone else wrote: “Transitioning to the Premier League can be challenging for some players from other leagues. Styles of play, competition, and cultural adaptation play a role. But with time, experience, and various factors at play, many players eventually adapt and thrive. Each journey is unique.”

Whilst a fifth commented: “Unfortunately played him on the left wing. Most of his good play is from the right, even in this video.”
Sancho will be hoping he can finally produce his best football as the 23/24 season edges ever closer.
