It's unfortunate his position is the congested left side. He should go out on loan
His best position is through the middle though he can conveniently play on either flank

“Alexis Sanchez is a fantastic addition, everyone is happy that he comes. Good players want good players. The question is always which one is going to be left out, it is not about that for us.

“We have a fantastic group of attacking players and he is another one with more maturity and experience. His choice for the second goal is a choice that a player like Marcus Rashford is too nervous to make that kind of decision. He brings maturity and class.”

- JOSE MOURINHO
in order words, Rashford should start constructing his bench grin grin

Sanchez is a good player.....he made it look as if he has been at united for over a season with the way he was linking up with his brand new team mates with no problem while even trying to make them raise their game.....that was a good debut forget say na ss1 boys we jam.....the performance mattered
At one of the viewing centres here, rivals plenty pass fans self... A very good performance i mustsay.

"I am very happy. I think it’s no surprise for anyone after three years in the Premier League, playing every week, so everyone knows what Alexis is. He is the kind of player you buy and you don’t think about adaptation in relation to English football, so [it's] no surprise for us.

"He is a fantastic player and he showed that for three years and for the past three days when he was training for us, so he's an amazing addition for us. Everyone is happy that he has come. Good players want good players and Alexis is a fantastic player for us.

"The question is always which one is going to be out? Where is he going to play? It’s not about that for us. For us, it is the fact that we have a fantastic group of attacking players and he is another one with a bit more maturity, and a bit of experience. He will bring us extra maturity and class. I am really pleased with him."

"I think he [Alexis] needed to play. He didn’t play for Arsenal the last two or three games and his training was not good because half of his body was in the Emirates and half in Manchester, so you don’t train well.

"He needed to train well like he did that and he needed to play. I was not sure about 90 minutes, I wanted to play him for 60, 70 or 75 and that was good because people start to understand his game better and he can understand his team-mates too."

Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Oasis007(m): 7:08am On Jan 27, 2018
"I was impressed with his [Alexis's] attitude and I think I did my job well in the fact that I told the players that they should be ready [for a tough game] and never react. At times in these type of games, the top players lose their heads, that balance and they are punished.

"I understand the referee's decision not to show the red card [for Nathan Smith's challenge on Alexis] because this is a special day and 10 against 11 in that moment of the game, it is probably game over so I understand his decision. But we love the FA Cup, we love to come to these stadiums, but the players do need a little bit of protection.

"The good thing with Alexis is, he is a tough guy, he has a good mentality and I am happy with everything he did. He was keen to play. I knew that was going to be difficult, it wasn’t going to be an easy one for him. But I am happy with his performance today."

"It's fantastic to have Michael Carrick back. It's really sad when you think, in May, his career is going to end as a player. But it's a fantastic assistant-coach I am going to have, I believe.

"I want to help him be better and better but it's a pity to lose a player that does everything well on the pitch."

"He [Gomez] wanted to score the goal! But it's normal. It's nice and good for him. So, so young.

"Last year, he had his debut and he's been training with us now and again. He had this feeling of being in the first team and immediately had confidence and quality. I'm happy for the kid."

Yeah they are right footed, and majority of right footed attackers thrive better on the left side due to the occasional cutting in they have to do and so on.

Dybala for the RW next season!

mehn using dybala as a rw is a waste of his talents..he's not really a winger,he's best at d no 8 or 10 role..he needs that hole behind d striker to operate..

Hmmmn. U're right. Make we dey look forward to Spurs. I hope to see something like this on Wednesday...

-------------Lukaku--------------

Martial-----Sanchez-----Lingard

--------Pogba-----Matic----------

Make Mata and Rashford dey far from our starting 11!!

LOL. You're vexing for dem? No starting berths for them until they improve their respective games as subs. And the good thing is Lingard can interchange fluidly with Alexis in that position. Heck, both of them can play anywhere behind the striker. Martial can also play through the middle for brief moments.

They are still gelling though wink

“I saw so many similarities in their games, and I always believed that Jesse was the English Andres Iniesta.

I agree with Mourinho on this one. Rashford in that position probably would have made the wrong decision. He might decide to go for goal by himself and the chance will be gone.

Can't wait for Sanchez to play with the big boys. Dude creates an awful lot of chances.

"He [Alexis] is not bad, is he? Not bad for a little man. He is going to be a terrific player, he is a proper Man United player, and it's great to have him here. 

"He is so exciting and so dynamic. He's always looking to create opportunities, to play forward and the fans are going to enjoy watching him, hopefully we will enjoy playing with him.”

that's why I don't get overtly annoyed with Rashford. he is just 20, he will mature with time.

"I think, all of sudden, it is funny how the season goes, but, at the moment, pretty much most of the squad is fit. Hopefully that stays the same because this is the time where things really kick into gear.

"You need as many options as fit as you can as the games will be coming thick and fast. It is a good sign as this is the business end of the season, when you want to be in with a shout. We are looking good at the moment."

Alexis gonna be terrific playing behind the Striker. He's very sharp in turning, he's strong and pacy, and has good Feet to bang Goals outside the Box.

I think JM experimentally tried out Lingard on the RW, and he didn't miss the Opportunity. He scored his Goal from the right Side by taking the Shot superbly.

It will be a big Menace for any Team's Defence to stop the quartet of Martial (LW) Alexis (SS/AM), Lingard(RW) and Lukaku (ST), cos they all have one thing in Common...... PACE.

I'm expecting the quartet to start the Spurs Game, and hopefully do a fantastic Job for this giant Club.

Lukaku and Pogba will enjoy Sanchez most. Lukaku in the sense that the Sanchez will create lot of chances for him, Pogba in the aspect of the workload.

As in, I think Sanchez will thrive as an AM, he was quite isolated on the left flank last night, he created lots of chances when he drifted to the middle, Now imagine Pogba just behind him, Martial who is very intelligent and can exchange quick passes on his left, Lingard who is very quick and has great movement on and off the ball on his right and Lukaku who is a total beast in front of goal in front of him


Sanchez will enjoy his game playing with these guys not That flash wanna be
