Told you all he is rubbish long ago

Met with ..oh he is still young & learning...oh he has all the attributes.....etc etc

This clown cant even control or pass a ball to save his life and and enter into a state of acute convulsion whenever a opponent is near him

Add to having no clue as to where his man is and a penchant of giving away penaties

All in all a car crash of a player

If Hitchen is the one who advocate paying 42m on him....he should be relieve of all scouring duties immediately

Sanchez has superior defensive qualities than Dier he is imo a better pure defender than Toby...ie tackling blocks interception recovery speed (Toby reads the game much better and is generally positioned better but I do find it funny how Toby gets away with glaring mistakes whereas Sanchez doesn't)

I like Sanchez and feel there's a very good defender within him but I guess amongst our fan base his not improved and times up mainly because he cost a lot of money and has errors in his game that he hasn't ironed out.

Poor reader of the game, poor in the air, fails to clear the ball properly when our defence is under pressure, and doesn’t make his height and weight count. I’ll never understand what we saw in him to pay so much for him.

I genuinely think he is the worst central defender I have the misfortune of watching regularly. He has everything you don't want in a central defender: poor positioning, easily dragged out of position, unreliable in the air, not good with the ball on his feet, and worst of all mentally weak and nervous. Why we paid so much for him back in the day is still a mystery to me.

Not to mention for his size he's actually weak. Strong strikers like DCL bully him, pacey strikers like Vardy bamboozle him. He's terrible on the ball too.

He was a complete waste of money. Honestly our recruitment the last few years, the big money signings, have been downright terrible.

Really weird how he just never got any better and ultimately got worse. He was really solid his first 2 years. I remember specifically he was really solid in some of the Champions league games against Madrid, & Juve. There was also that Chelsea away where we won 3-1 where he was absolutely dominant.

Shame what ended up happening.

We have way too many players who showed a certain level and have completely fallen away to where it's so difficult to judge which players could possibly kick on with some proper coaching and which ones need shot of. I think there's a lot of players who have been here too long to where even if there's a possibility they might turn it around under the right coach, if we can get an offer we should take it.

I think he will have takers but we will be lucky to get half our money back. Take the hit though. It’s worth it.

Yeah, I agree. Just bummed about how it turned out. I was really excited when he signed and was disappointed with how little we actually got to see the Ajax 3 play together due to Toby's injuries.

thing with Davinson is, a bit like Kyle walker, relies on his pace to get him out of the shit he has made for himself, and ultimately comes unstuck. i did think under good defensive coaching under Jose he would improve, but he loses concentration far too much to be relied upon. Sadly a bit like Dier (without the pace)
