Leroy Sane is a bit alright, isn’t he?
The Man City winger has been in scintillating form in recent weeks, growing into a key figure in Pep Guardiola’s ridiculously talented squad.
He was simply awesome in the win over Arsenal during the week and finished off an absolutely beautiful team goal. And against Chelsea this afternoon, he was his usual nightmare-self for defenders.

Sane receives the ball out wide
He skips past Fabregas
Gets inside his marker and darts for the box
Chelsea double up on the winger
Crowded out, he gets his pass away
And moments later, he was the danger man again, this time reacting first to a City freekick that was fired into the box.
With Kevin De Bruyne floating in a lovely ball, Sane was able to pick it up near the far-post, control effortlessly and fire off a shot that had Chelsea goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois well beaten.
Luckily for the man in orange, Blues defender Ceser Azpilicueta was on the line to block the shot and produce one of the best pieces of goalkeeping you’ll see all weekend, guaranteed.
Sane lines up the shot
Fires home
Courtois is well beaten
Luckily Dave is there and the goalkeeper can pounce on the rebound
We think goal-line clearances are an underappreciated art, and as far as they go, this is definitely one of the best we’ve seen.
After all, they do say that Dave saves.
