Sane is German so he's definitely a better player than the Korean bloke.

I think the boys in Seoul would have something to say about that!
Fake news
Leave Sane alone poor boy
Only issue with this is that Sane's assists aren't like that. Pretty much all of them are him beating players on the wing and putting balls across the box. He's also usually an excellent finisher when chances come his way plus he's a fair bit younger. I love Sonny all the same but sane has probably been the best player in, up until yesterday, by far the most dominant team in the league this season. If both were available to us it would be hard to choose but I'm more than happy with the one we have.
Again, not doubting Sane's ability but the stat thing on assists though is a nonsense and irrelevant way to judge a players ability to play football, often relying on the ability of another player to score, others come from set pieces (Tripps has at least 2 from throw-ins) and others that require sheer luck (Loftus-Cheek's miss-hit shot that hit Kane's heel at the World Cup).
It's far more appropriate to use the number of goals he was involved in, the same goes for Son too, as both players are the type that creates chaos in oppo defence. The ability to run at and thru or behind the oppo creates all manner of opportunities and space for your teammates, even if their cross/pass doesn't at first find their intended target, as the damage is already done. The defence is out of shape, hurried and under pressure to clear their lines, often passing it straight back to a Spurs or City player, for the attack to start again and whilst it's still disorganised.
Not sure what age has to do with anything.
Son is far more diverse player, does what Sane dose running at the oppo but can also score from outside of the box, in addition, he is two-footed so is as devastating on the left as he is on the right. Sane is left wing only.
I'm trying to think of the last crap goal that Sonny scored. Nothing coming. His youtube compilation must be spectacular. If Levy looks at that will be thinking he must be worth £200m
I think everyone on the team has missed at least a few 1v1. It's just for some reason, people seem to lose their collective minds when Sonny misses them then forgets about all the times that he does round the keeper well or beat the keeper 1v1.
Was surprised he didnt score that 1v1, as soon as he went through i was so confident that it was already a goal.
Was also decent goalkeeping by Cillessen, but yeah, he should've scored that one.
Yep was a great save, just so used to seeing him put that away. Same with Harry's chance that he skied after getting pushed.
