Man Utd legend Schmeichel: Sancho has disappointed me

Manchester United legend Peter Schmeichel supports Jadon Sancho's omission from England's World Cup squad.

Sancho featured for England at last year's Euros, and joined Manchester United for £73m shortly after the tournament.

However, he has struggled to live up to expectations, only showing glimpses of his potential, and this has cost him a place in Qatar.

"I don't think he's done enough," Schmeichel said on Sky Sports.

"I'm a little bit disappointed with the talent that he has, and yes it's difficult to come to Old Trafford with that price-tag, I understand that. But he's shown that he can do whatever he did at Borussia Dortmund, he just hasn't done it enough."
