I want RLC to play more than anyone, but RLC is not a regista.

Anyone care to explain this to me?

If he wants more playing time why would he want to go to Bayern?

Bayern is willing to give young players a chance because of their league being less competitive top-to-bottom.

They also have an aging squad.

He's watching Sancho and thinking he can do it. He's pretty much on par with Sancho before he left TBH. He just needs minutes and the right setup.

Bayern despite always spending big still has a history of playing young players

its a great situation. They are loading up on young talent right now.

Maybe i’m making shite up, but I don’t believe this is factual.

It could be that he was a City player, so I may have heard some over the top stuff but isn’t/wasn’t Sancho considered a generational talent?

Have always heard CHO is a hot prospect, but never seen him compared to Sancho in terms of potential....even Foden for that matter.

No idea what most people's perception on the two is. I watched a decent bit of youth matches, and CHO just made it look easy. He was almost always better than everybody else. I don't normally get super excited about our young players. I like RLC and Abraham and Mount, but I've thought CHO and Ampadu are actually incredible for a while now.

Also, I feel like people are using hindsight to act like they thought Sancho would do this well. We all thought he was good and City would regret the move. We didn't think we'd see this much end product already if we're being honest.

You’re right, i’m sure.

Likely just the City news. I know this whole generation of English talent is crazy good.

Bayern are overhauling their squad. Robben and Ribery are done after this year, that leaves only Gnabry, Coman, and the Davies kid to compete for minutes and Gnabry and Coman are injury prone. I think it'd be a great move for CHO especially given the opportunity to develop in the Bundi.

Sancho was highly regarded best youth player in his age group.

Foden is playing plenty. His role will only increase.

They do. I think all of those clubs reorganized their academies around the same time. Arsenal did it in 2014 by bring in Andries Jonker, and we are seeing the benefits now.

England would be so much better served if they had a unique national style, but the one they would revert to, the classic 4-4-2 with traditional wingers and little-man/big-man striker combos, is very hit-or-miss. The England teams of the 80's, before Heysel, could play an expansive sort of passing game, but that fell out of vogue for a long time, and only briefly came back, with the 'Pool team of 2013-14 the best example.

I think they'll try to jam all these players in rather than make hard decisions about who to leave out. Trying to make a Gerrard-Lampard midfield work when the better options would have been to include Carrick or Scholes should be used as a lesson on what not to do, in my view.
