Carragher Critiques Sancho’s Performance: ‘I Don’t Know What His Thing Is’

There is confusion surrounding Jadon Sancho’s impressive reputation.

Sancho’s struggles at Manchester United are well-known. While some attribute his difficulties to coaching, Jamie Carragher believes there’s nothing about him that truly distinguishes him as a top-class player.

Details: The former Liverpool player pointed out that despite the criticism aimed at Marcus Rashford, he possesses unique qualities. In contrast, Sancho lacks such distinguishing features.

Quote: “It’s interesting with Sancho. When he was at Borussia Dortmund, Gary Neville and I were on a show where we had to select an England XI. We didn’t know much about him back then—he was performing well in the Champions League, but we didn’t include him. Everyone on social media was asking, ‘How can you not choose Sancho?’

I still can’t identify any standout ability in him. He’s okay, but I struggle to see what his main strength is. With Rashford, even with my criticisms, I can visualize his speed, shooting, and free-kicks. But with Sancho, I can’t picture what makes him special,” Carragher said on The Overlap Fan Debate.
