I think Donnarumma is vastly overrated. And when you look at Bayindirs mistake, that's exactly where Donnarumma struggles too. He's a fantastic shot stopper, but that's about it. Struggles to claim a cross, questionable with his feet, a brainfart here and there. Which is why I find it funny that Man City are apparently interested, he's the exact opposite of what Pep is usually looking for in a goalkeeper. If I'm United, I go for Senne Lammens from Royal Antwerp.

In other news, Jadon Sancho has rejected the AS Roma offer. I didn't think I could ever loathe a footballer that much, but here we are.
I do think there is more to the story than just that.

He turned down initial contract renewals during the season, and then around the champions league which caused tensions.

PSG seems to have this new focus on signing French nationals as a priority which added to it.

And yeah they want a goalie who can play better from the back but I honestly think the earlier stuff where he turned down the contract was the real issue.

In terms of his fit...I just see more of a fit with United than City IMO.
