According to the Daily Mail, Sanchez has failed to adapt to life at United and does not fit in with any social group at the club.

He is often spotted eating alone in the canteen and moping around their training complex at Carrington.

Some say he comes across as a player who is having second thoughts over his decision to join United.

He was the same at Arsenal, does not seem to be a likeable personality. Don't think it's a big deal, he just likes to stay alone it seems.

should come back to barca being messi's slave again. can be played when we won the league and need to rest players for CL.

having seen the social circles at United and Arsenal I don't blame him Laughing

seen those pics of half the Arsenal team on some chavvy teenage night out at a fair ffs

this is good though, hope his ostracism and loneliness will help us move him on to Serie A with a huge wage cut

by RealGunner Wed Mar 21, 2018 8:27 pm

Still believe he will come good next season.

But yea he was never one of those players to get all close with the rest of the team etc. I mean even his gf left him because of his personality.

by Uncanny Wed Mar 21, 2018 8:50 pm

it alright he has his two dogs and a 500K a week wage for the next four years Smile

by Tomwin Lannister Thu Mar 22, 2018 5:57 pm

Moping around lmao
Oh no the horror.

Doubt it's that hard to not be an outsider in a modern football club where people move every 2 years. Sounds like a dick, and the way he played for Arsenal after buying into his own hype backs that up.

by Myesyats Thu Mar 22, 2018 6:11 pm

ffs I knew something was wrong with him ever since he was laughing his ass off at Vilanova's funeral

A new wave of Football Leaks has revealed Alexis Sánchez could earn as much as £25m-a-year at Manchester United. (Source: Daily Mail)

Worst signing of the modern era IMO. Makes Morata's signing look like great business. Mou sees him as undroppable too. rofl

you need a chinese club to come in for him.

by Mr Nick09 Sat Sep 22, 2018 5:00 pm

He is finished isnt he?

he pulled out a wonderful con job. He did enough with Arsenal to earn the biggest contract ever in EPL at United, and now he just relaxes at home with his dogs, shows up for games, jogs, and then goes home.

by Unique Sat Sep 22, 2018 5:05 pm

£30mil and 600k per week. @frenzy rofl

yeah..like I said before, Mourinho seems forced to justify the signing, so plays him every game.

We basically play with 10 men from the start of every game. Sanchez offers absolutely NOTHING. He makes a decent lobbed/chipped pass every other game, other than that just jogs around the pitch.

Club needs to just be resigned that they *bleep* up and bench him asap, won't happen though until Mou is gone

by Doc Sat Sep 22, 2018 6:33 pm

Sanchez filling out the pampers he is wearing nicely.

5 years later and I still can't get over that Pedro-Sanchez-Messi forward line we once had *shudder*. Dark times.

by RealGunner Sat Sep 22, 2018 11:49 pm

I remember his goal against Madrid though.

Think that was one of the few memorable things he did.

by Unique Sun Sep 23, 2018 12:14 am

i bet pep and city are thinking it was a bullet dodged Very Happy

by Casciavit Sun Sep 23, 2018 10:42 am

Pep probably would have had Alexis just stick near the box and score tap-ins tbh. Sanchez tries too hard to be a protagonist and he was never really that talented to be one. It's no surprise that the moment he started to decline a bit physically that he's become incredibly frustrating.

Honestly, aside from money that very well could have been a reason he joined United. Even though he sees less of the ball at United, at City his creative and positional freedom would have been very restricted.

The move seems to have fired back so far though. TBH I didn't really understand why you'd want a ball hogging LW when you already have a ball hogging LCM, they'll just get in each other's way. Mourinho really needs to start coaching detailed attacking dynamics or hire an assistant coach who can.

by Hapless_Hans Fri Nov 30, 2018 7:17 pm

Let's remember that Man United are paying Alexis Sanchez something like 25m-30m € per year in wages.

He scored 4 goals IN ALL COMPETITIONS since joining last January.
He's now been injured in training and his year might be done.

Arguably the biggest flop in the history of football.

by Firenze Fri Nov 30, 2018 7:21 pm

Gotta be one of them. In hindsight, I acted like a complete numpty when we gazumped City to his signing, if I could do it all over again, I absolutely would. Fun couple of days.

Incredibly happy he's injured and out though as it means he won't be stinking up the pitch.

by Arquitecto Fri Nov 30, 2018 8:29 pm

Easily one of the most overrated talents of this generation.

Carried by Di Natale in Udinese and made to look better.

Terrible for Barcelona.

Shone only when the rest of the team bombed in Arsenal and briefly.

Nothing player for United.

Only notable for Chile versus South American scrubs.

Very limited player.

Disagree. He's always been a fraud. Doesn't give a shit about his team too. Awful player to have in your squad.

Probably the worst 'top' player in the world.

by Firenze Sun Feb 24, 2019 3:20 pm

Sanchez has to be in for a shout of worst signing of the PL era, up there with Torres, Morata and Carroll, granted we swapped him fro Mkhi, his wages are insane and he's well beyond the point of being finished. Doubt he could even perform in Serie A.
