I would've liked to see more of him. He simply needs the gametime. I don't believe he is completely finished.

He's better than Lukaku and looked lively when he came on. Want to see him at one of the two up top with the diamond behind him. He clearly doesn't work on the left, dropping into the same space as Pogba.
I like his mentality. Came on and put in a shift.
He always gives everything, which is the bare minimum. It’s what keeps the hope alive.
He looked up for it, would love to see him and Rashford start together.
Needs to start as a striker instead of Lukaku, give him a run of games up top ffs.
Decent shift after he came on. I still believe he can have a future here.
Worked really hard but its clear to see his legs have gone but i think he could do a good job playing through the middle.
I share the feelings on here, I really liked his attitude coming from the bench. Next time I would give him a chance instead of Lukaku after what we saw today.
Maybe, just maybe Usain Bolt could have come clean through on goal for that one, requiring a perfect touch, of course. Sanchez could have gone for it and would maybe have gotten past the last defender, but unless it was spastic at the back, the defender would just have followed him down towards the line making it impossible to get a shot on target. Sanchez NEVER had that speed - why do people actually think he did? Watch Youtube videos of him at Barca with "speed" in the title, not even there does he show any great speed to talk about. He's barely four feet tall, what do you expect?
He doesn't have the legs for the counter now but he pressed and harried well when he came on, better at that aspect than Lukaku.
He just had that burst and power to work with, but he wasnt quick in a straight line over a long distance. Really like him tonight, great to see Herrera praise him for his output. Really positive.
I'd start him over Lukaku.
Would like to see a similar set up, with Sanchez partnering Rashford, should Jesse and Tony be out of the liverpool game.

He shouldn't play at the wings anymore, if Lingard and Martial are still injured, he should start with Rashford ahead of Lukaku ,at least he has the ability on the ball and brilliant off-the-ball movement than Lukaku.
His best spells at United were in the middle (in preseason ).

Would prefer him to Lukaku tbh. Lukaku looked so slow tonight. Such poor speed of the mark. Once he gets going he is alright, but terrible acceleration.
Looked very good when he came on. For once he seemed like he was playing with something to prove and hopefully he carries that on for the next game, he could play a big role.
Nothing bad about his effort and work rate, top performance in those two.
The quality in his attacking though...
Expecting more from him.

It's time we expect more than he gives is all.
He's paid 300k per week. Any fans out there would have run their socks off for united.
Because he actually did had it before.
Top speed yes he don't, but he definitely have the explosive burst (not top speed, but more like quick acceleration + aggression) and the superb agility + balance to move past players.
I think the poster you've replied to is talking more about that than just the normal (top) speed.
The more he plays the better her will get. He needs game time now.
I hate this guy on the wings, play him through the middle or never play him.
He looked much quicker and much more focused last night, he went full throttle, I like that.
Mate, my point was it’s far from enough. So we are in agreement.
He was much better last night but i still don't see it working out for him. He looks like an older player starting to slow down. Ordinarily those players earn the right to one last big payday for what they've done in the past, but in his case that wasn't at this club so it's not justifiable for us to pay it.
If you search for 'best of Sanchez' compilations on YouTube you see exactly the same skills as we all jerk off to when we hit up potential new attacking signings.
Most of them are from 2017. That's 2 years, 24 months ago. He doesn't feel the support from the fans (jup that's us) aswell as he is doubting himself. It has nothing to do with his physics/skills/technics. It's all in his head.
I truly believe in Sanchez, and I think and hope Ole will not give up an him. Give him a few more chances under a sane manager (Ole) and holy hell he will show what he is good for!

I still have faith in him. Give him game time and judge him again.
If Sanchez scores the winner on Sunday, I will give him player of the season.
This. I just can’t write him off because of his attitude. He looks finished at times but I’m starting to think if we could build the team around him when he plays he will lflourish. Playing the 2 man striker seems to suit him because he is further up the pitch and can do his thing without any restraint.
I’ve said it multiple times I would rather get rid of lukaku than him because he is a natural and can still do the basics.
This!! Every time he pulls on the shirt I'm convinced (albeit slightly less each occasion) he's going to be the match winner! Sunday could very easily be his 'Forlan' moment, come on Alexis make yourself a hero
Exactly this. Please.This!! Every time he pulls on the shirt I'm convinced (albeit slightly less each occasion) he's going to be the match winner! Sunday could very easily be his 'Forlan' moment, come on Alexis make yourself a hero
I agree, with regards to Lukaku, but I couldn’t disagree more about even entertaining the notion of building a team around him. He’s been a dud so far. I just have a small hope we could get something out of him.
This thread reminds me of Rooney thread the year before he got sold 
Unfortunately it isn't "form" with Sanchez, he just isn't fast enough anymore to be effective in a wide position. He needs to play in the middle where he can twist and turn to make space.
He won't do that as Pogba is better than him now.

Why not. It’s liverpool! Haha!
I still believe he has goals in him. He cannot play as a winger. He needs to play behind the striker or as a striker. We better start utilising him properly or we are just wasting his talent.
Man Utd 0:0 Liverpool
I really don't get the point of him anymore. Very disappointed. Efforts are here but quality has gone out of the window.
Did a great defensive work today.
Hit and miss in that department today. Sold himself easily quite a lot. Going forward hit and miss as well.
He tries hard. That's about it. I respect him for it, but feck me he's a brutal player now, offers nothing going forward. Reminds me of Rooney's last days here, but even Rooney could pop up with some nice finishes to be fair. Sanchez has shown nothing.
Worked hard but he’s rubbish, have to get rid in the summer.
