Purely based on SG as a player, I reckon he will relish working with any midfielder he thinks has something about them and can improve. Stevie G said that Sanson will be a big player for us. That to me proves he'll put a bit of time into him and be patient with him. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeyp102 Posted November 26, 2021 Share Posted November 26, 2021 I think Smith was banking on him coming back firing all cylinders and thus why we didn’t sign a midfielder in the summer. could become a top player for us Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WallisFrizz Posted November 27, 2021 Share Posted November 27, 2021 SG has apparently said that he’s not quite there in terms of fitness but been trying hard in training and that the decision to involve him in the match day squads was for his morale as he has been feeling so frustrated. I like that both in terms of man management and that SG seems willing to tell us more about it where players are in terms of player fitness (gave also detail on Trez and Dougie) than Smith. Smith used to be so cagey and often misleading for no real benefit to anyone. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vive_La_Villa Posted November 27, 2021 Share Posted November 27, 2021 Probably over thinking things but In training videos I’ve noticed he is always working out alone while others are chatting away. Maybe he has struggled to settle in England? That combined with constant injuries, it could be a really hard time for the bloke. Really harsh to write him off.

Sounds like Sanson is having a hard time of things but is definitely in Gerrards plans. We’ll have to continue to be patient. I’m confident he will still be a very good player for us.

No one wants to make a big move and just never play due to niggly injuries. new country, new team. Be tough. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KevinRichardsonsMoustache Posted December 1, 2021 Share Posted December 1, 2021 He'll be part of the squad tonight. SG has clearly seen enough sin him to have him around the place, even though he isn't fit. I actually think the rise of Ramsey -- perhaps quicker than expected by the backroom team -- has both isolated Sanson and perhaps given him a bit of a reprieve (not sticking him in at the deep end). Hoping, for all of our sakes, that he has simply been unlucky with injuries and there isn't a bigger issue there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villalad21 Posted December 1, 2021 Share Posted December 1, 2021 I just can't see him replacing Ramsey or McGinn. It's also very interesting because Gerrard deployed Luiz as a number 8 in the last game. If Gerrard look on Nakamba as his primary DM where does that leave Sanson? 4th choice box to box midfielder? Or is he ahead of Luiz? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villabromsgrove Posted December 1, 2021 Share Posted December 1, 2021 I get really nervous when I think Sansom may play, because I desperately want him to do as well as I believe he can. If he can get back to his Marseille form we'll have another really good player to rotate in an exciting and energetic midfield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said, I hope he begins showing us something soon, that will put him into serious contention for a first team place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
