Where will Alexis Sanchez play for Manchester United?

#1 Free roam

With the freedom to roam around, Sanchez is a constant threat

While Mourinho has always preferred specialists in all the positions on the field, Sanchez could instead have a free role at Old Trafford. With the kind of work rate on offer from Sanchez, there is no doubt about the Chilean’s stamina levels.

Enabling the rapid attacker to roam freely in the attacking third is bound to create chances for the team especially against stubborn defences. Sanchez has the ability to drag players out of their position with his close control while making sure he does not get dispossessed.

This versatile nature of the Chilean will also help United a lot in a counter-attacking setup with his pace still one of the biggest attributes of his game. Mourinho will surely enjoy the flexibility he will have by deploying Sanchez in any of the roles in the attacking third.
