Revealed : mathaus reveals mistakes made by Jordan Sancho before his Manchester United moves and what makes him a flop today .
Jadon Sancho has been told he made
a 'mistake' joining Manchester United in
the summer on the day he was dropped from
Gareth Southgate's England squad over
a lack of game-time.

Sancho, 21, looked set to be the next
Old Trafford superstar when he swapped
Borussia Dortmund for United in a £75m deal
in July, but that move was soon eclipsed by
Cristiano Ronaldo's return and the winger
has found it hard to break his way into Ole
Gunnar Solskjaer's team, even as they
have struggled for form.
Sancho suffered another setback on Thursday
as he was overlooked for England manager
Gareth Southgate's squad, and Germany
legend Lothar Matthaus believes the youngster
will be regretting his summer switch now.
Speaking to Sky Sports, Matthaus said: 'You
see the players who are playing in Man
United. You have Rashford, you have Ronaldo
... this means you have two from three and
then you have another four players who can
play in the third position and one of these
three or four players is Sancho.
'I don't know how he is training at Man
United, he has to work very hard to make
this step in the first 11 and now he's far away
from the first 11.'
Asked if Sancho might be thinking that
moving to United from Dortmund was a
mistakes, Matthaus responded emphatically:
'When I see how many minutes he was
playing this season or which games he was
playing then I think it was a mistake. Maybe
he has more money but he has less games.'

Sancho spent four years at Dortmund after
arriving from United's rivals Manchester
City. He scored 50 goals in 137 games in
Germany, twice being named in the Bundesliga
team of the year and becoming a regular
in England squads.
He made three appearances at Euro 2020,
including starting the quarter-final win over
Ukraine, but missed a penalty in the shootout
defeat by Italy in the final. The south Londoner
has started just five times in 11 appearances
for United and is yet to score for the club.
Matthaus, 60, is a former Ballon d'Or winner
who won the World Cup and European
Championship with Germany and West
Germany, for whom he amassed a combined
total of 150 caps. He won seven Bundesliga
titles across two spells with Bayern Munich,
while also won Serie A with Inter Milan.
