AC Milan v Manchester United - International Champions Cup 2018

#1 Can Alexis Sanchez continue his top form?

Manchester United v Real Madrid - International Champions Cup 2018
Alexis Sanchez has carried United's attack through the preseason

With the absence of addition of any attacking players in the squad this summer till now, United fans had no option but turn to the Chilean, who joined them in January, for inspiration. And Sanchez has inspired in pre-season. He has already scored 2 goals in the 4 games he played, playing out of position as a central striker. He also assisted Herrera's goal in the Real Madrid game.

With Lukaku unlikely to start, Sanchez will be ready to be United's main striker again and United fans will hope that he can continue his rejuvenated preparation to the season, in the last preseason game.

Sanchez has looked lively in preseason so far, combining excellently with Juan Mata, but his understanding with his teammates as a whole has improved a lot. It seems all he needed was a little more time to settle down, and by the looks of things now, his time seems to have finally arrived. This season, Sanchez might well be the saviour United need and for the Chilean, Sunday will be a step towards establishing that fact.
