That’s how I interpreted it too, I’ve literally just been watching that keeping sequence on loop, definitely a celebratory war cry rather than a bollocking.

Even if he's playing in the U23 he can still be on the bench for first team I would have thought? Especially as he's a keeper and therefore not likely to be tired.

I was basing that on the fact he isn't included in the U23 squad on the club's website and didn't feature in the last couple of PL2 games.
Looks like he has played a couple of PL2 games after a bit more digging
Covid-19 means the club are trying not to mix the U23 and first team squads which probably explains why Sanchez has not been the first team bench keeper if he has been playing for the U23s.
It possibly also means he needed a 2 week break from U23 involvement before joining the first team.

Blimey.
That was an excellent reaction save, followed by very quickly getting on the second ball. I'd be amazed if Dunk's reaction was anything other than an old fashioned Duncan Duffy on Stockdale type reaction.
Sanchez has had two solid games out of two now. It's his shirt to lose. good luck to him.
Also, I love the fact he can ping the ball accurately 70 yards. With the pace of Wellbeck, Lamptey and Connolly that'll force teams to not press so high against us.

You have a good point. According to Wiki, Sanchez is 13cm taller, which means his reach is about 20cm greater. This is quite significant if you're trying to curl one over him.

Apparently his nickname is Dirty.
But he is still 2cm shorter than Vestergaard ans a full 4cm shorter than Burn. I’d describe him as medium height rather than tall (with Matty Ryan obviously being short).

Not sure where to get the most accurate stats. Wiki has Burn at 198 and Dirty at 197.
I am really impressed by Sanchez so far, very calm and a presence. If he keeps progressing he could be a massive bonus as we won't have to invest in a new keeper.
The big test will come when he does make his first mistakes, which he will, and how he reacts to them. Like strikers, being a good goalkeeper is so much about mentality.

Only 1cm. shorter than BDB - and 'medium height' is a very peculiar definition of 6 foot 5 1/2 inches, bearing in mind that the average height of men in Britain is 5 foot 9 inches!
Even if you just look at statistics for young men (under 25) still only 30% are over 6 foot.

This all day long, he pulls off a reaction save and then loses where the ball went, once he turns round quickly he dives on it with loads of boots just about to kick it. That took bravery and that is what I think Dunk was congratulating Sanchez on.
He is a unit, hopefully he'll lose his nerves and get better and better. Ryan could take some time getting the shirt back.
First thing I thought. Is he's certainly got a kick on him distance wise. That video confirms this.
I thought he did well. There will be tougher tests ahead, but really hopeful he'll progress.
I like Maty and still think he's great and hasn't done much wrong at all. Not to be pilloried at least. I do wonder if the rumor about home (Aus) is true though.
