Sky Sports pundit Stephen Warnock has placed a huge compliment on Leroy Sane by comparing the German attacker with Premier League and Manchester United legend Ryan Giggs. The Germany international endured a tough start to the top-flight season with Manchester City but he has sorted himself over the past few months where he has contributed six goals and six assists from just seven league starts.
Sane has been more of a regular for the Citizens in recent months and this has witnessed Pep Guardiola swap his options on the opposite end with Riyad Mahrez and Raheem Sterling among those featuring on the right side of the attack. Nonetheless, the German cannot take things for granted with Guardiola’s shrewd selection policy and one poor performance could witness him return to the substitutes’ bench.
Manchester City secured a hard-fought 2-1 triumph over Watford during the recent Premier League outing but they should have won by a bigger margin with Sane and Gabriel Jesus being guilty of missing one-on-one chances with goalkeeper Ben Foster. The Mancunian giants are presently holding a two-point advantage at the top of the table and are scheduled to face Chelsea on the road this weekend.
