Paul Ince Slams Alexis Sanchez

By Joshua Walters

Paul Ince has aimed a dig at Manchester United player Alexis Sanchez as he describes the Chilean's performance at the club as 'disgrace'.

The former Arsenal starman has failed to live up to expectaion after crossing carpet to Old Trafford in January 2018 as a free agent in a deal that saw Henrik Mhikytayan also going the other way.

Alexis Sanchez's is on a reported weekly wage of £315, 000, and Paul Ince feels the player's performance is a joke if compared to his earnings and statistics.

“The way Alexis Sanchez is playing at the moment is nothing short of a disgrace," Paul Ince tells Paddy Power in an interview.

“His performances are a joke for the wage he gets. I wouldn’t begrudge his high wage, either, if I thought that he was truly putting his all in and playing well, but when you give someone that kind of money you expect a lot more.”

“The fans deserve better, Ole deserves better, and so do the rest of his team.”

“Maybe he has the hump because he’s not in the starting XI, but that’s hardly a surprise.”

“He’s been hopeless, completely all over the place. There has to be a decision made about his future at Old Trafford because it’s not working. But this is the dilemma when you keep sacking managers; players the previous boss bought in on high wages are impossible to get rid of – so you have to try to make them work in your team.”

“He’s a million miles away from being at his best, he looks like a completely different player.”
