Sancho made his first start for Chelsea in their 3-0 win over West Ham.

Fans are all saying the same thing after watching Jadon Sancho during Chelsea’s 3-0 win over West Ham.

Sancho was given his first start by manager Enzo Maresca at the London Stadium.

And the Manchester United loanee took immediate advantage, registering an assist for Nicolas Jackson’s fourth-minute opening goal.

He was then applauded off the pitch by the away end as he was substituted on 57 minutes.

Sancho is at Chelsea on a loan basis for the rest of the season, but the Blues have an obligation to sign him permanently from Manchester United in the summer.

On the back of displays like the one at the London Stadium, Chelsea will have no qualms about doing exactly that.

And fans have drawn parallels between Sancho and former Blues star Mason Mount, who signed for United for £55 million last summer.

During an injury-hit 2023/24 season, Mount made just 14 Premier League appearances for United, scoring once in a 1-1 draw at Brentford.

But Sancho’s two assists means he has registered more goal contributions for Chelsea than Mount has for United in the Premier League.

One fan wrote: “Sancho for Mount is daylight robbery.”

Another said: “It took Jadon Sancho two games to match the same amount of G/A Mount has for United. Sancho has been at Chelsea for a month, while Mount has been at United for over a year.”

A third added: “We paid £35 million more for Mount than Chelsea paid us for Sancho.”

And a fourth stated: “Sancho left Manchester United and walked straight into Chelsea’s starting XI.”

The deal for Sancho between United and Chelsea is believed to be between £20 and £25 million.

The Athletic claim that he took a major pay cut from his United contract in order to make the move, with his soon-to-be former club set to make a significant loss from his sale.
