‘It looks like Man United signed Sanchez’s twin’ – Shearer

Matt Stead

Alan Shearer has laid into Manchester United forward Alexis Sanchez.

Sanchez has struggled since moving to Old Trafford from Arsenal in January.

He has scored just one goal in ten appearances, and was left on the bench in the 2-0 FA Cup victory over Brighton on Saturday.

Man United have failed to get the best out of the Chilean in the two months he has spent at the club, and Shearer has certainly noticed.

“They signed Alexis Sanchez and it looks like they have got his twin brother,” he told Coral.

“He looks like the little boy lost. It is the coach’s job to get the best out of the players.

“I understand the criticism, but Mourinho will come back and say they are second in the league and they are improving because they only finished sixth last year.”
