Manchester United coach Erik ten Hag has defended out of form star Jadon Sancho.
The winger struggled for consistency last season, while he was even given time off around the World Cup.
Sancho improved slightly towards the end of last term, but has still not shown the form he displayed at Borussia Dortmund.
Ten Hag told The Mail: “He has the skills, so also for him it’s the same. He has to show consistently that he can make a huge contribution. When you are a front player, that end product is the key.
“So make sure you are making the key actions, the final pass and get your goals in, because that’s why he is here.”
He added: “In this moment he is in a very good vibe. He decides how he is, how his mood and vibe is. I hope and expect. He has a lot of energy, we have all seen that from the moment he came back. He wants to enjoy football and be successful.”
He finished on Sancho rediscovering his top level: “It’s the development. The Bundesliga is perfect preparation for the Premier League which is tougher. I think your vision is a little bit grey.
“I saw many games at Dortmund and Jadon is not such a different player in Dortmund as he is here. But also for him, he has to get more consistency in his performance but he has to do it at a higher level.”
