5 reasons why Mourinho must drop Sanchez for the Manchester United vs Liverpool game

Alexis Sanchez has struggled since joining Man United

#1 Lack of cohesion with other attackers

Cohesion has been a problem of the Man United attack

Manchester United may not have scored many goals as compared to Manchester City and Liverpool this season, but the Red Devils boast a very star-studded attack – a forward line made even better by the addition of Sanchez.

However, Mourinho’s side has struggled to score enough goals because of an apparent lack of cohesion between the United attackers.

Often Lukaku looks to be on a different wavelength to the others and Sanchez’s kick-and-run game, in particular, does not suit most of the United players.

The cohesion is simply not there despite the worth of quality that the Chilean brings on board.

Due to this, it would be better to start Juan Mata, Marcus Rashford or Martial who know each other better.

Starting with Sanchez is never a bad idea, but the problem is that he has still not gotten accustomed to his team-mates and that might hinder team telepathy.

Against such a sharp Liverpool side, the last thing any opponent needs is a slow start or a lack of cohesion up front.
