Alexis Sanchez

[CoolMan44]

He can play well as a AM behind two strikers. Problem is that this works only if opponent gets a red card.

I think best use of him is when the opponent is sitting deep and we need a goal. Despite him being at the end of his career, he's still the most creative player we have and if opponents given him time on the ball, he's able to find passes that most of our other players don't or time his passes well (the timing and weight of the pass for Pavard was excellent).

In these situations we need to put him on in addition to having two forwards as he's very rarely in the box.

I was hoping a last minute bid was given so he left

Hope he does better in the 2nd half of the season but.... he is proof of why you shouldn't go back to an eX

Good job today, and these types of performances is why in my book he will never be on the same level of uselessness as a player of arnautovic profile. Plus, I have so much respect for his grind, totally married to the game and extremely hungry after everything he accomplished.

His motivation quotes are cringe, but I still prefer that than to have my striker looking like someone shot his whole family every time he makes a mistake. In a strange way, it tells you a lot about the mentality between those two and what they accomplish in their career.

As the commentators said, as Zanetti walked over to do the same thing at the same time, he came on and changed the game!

Grande Sanchez!!

Greatly under appreciated!!

 

[RickyMaravilla'sRightFoot]

At least he helped offset the cost of his loan/wage with these 8mil

I would keep Sanchez and Arna till end of the season. There is no point of getting one in the Winter window, imo.

inzhagui: "we must applaud what Alexis Sánchez has done, the substitutes like the Chilean were involved with the goal"

and Zanetti told him in Italian "Niño, disfruta; abbiamo vinto con il tubo" what does it mean?

Why can't you little bitch be like this more often.

The goal had everything, Sanchez setting it up, nice run from Pavard and a low pass to Lautaro, who scores while falling down.

If we don't win the league it will be a failure that we went for Sanchez, but maybe he'll have a good run of games finally.

I enjoyed Alexis's performance against Napoli. Let's be fair; he hasn't had enough minutes to showcase his abilities. You can't expect much from a player who doesn't play consistently

 

[wera]

The problem is that he still goes to play the Chile games and comes back fucked up every time. That is why Inzaghi had to let go Sanchez the first time. If he isn't at least on the bench most of the time, he won't get to start at all. Everybody happy about Sanchez right now because he had two amazing passes against a 10 men Napoli - this isn't enough for me to forget how many times he lost the ball at the worst possible time. He won't have the space to play like how he had yesterday every game.

Not in all the games but what do you want to demand if I arrive free and at 0 cost. It is a replacement that can save you one or another game, but to contribute in all of them we should demand from the one who cost 8 million euros, Arnautovic.

The issue would be the purchase of Arnautovic not Sanchez. If Sanchez wasn't here, we'd have Correa and it's not as if Correa would be the difference in winning a title or not.

 

[YoramG]

I would literally only let him on the pitch as trequartista and when we’re desperate for a goal.

2 decent showings aren’t enough to make me forget the last 2 years of the Inter version of Alexis Sanchez.

 

[wera]

I was against both Sanchez and Arnautović coming here. Both for different reasons. Also both can still perform, just not on the level Inter really needs week in, week out.

 

[RickyMaravilla'sRightFoot]

Finally two good cameos in a row. Anyone know many Chile matches are slated for the rest of the season??

but still somehow behing Arnautoshit in the pecking order, even tho he has played with Lautaro for 3 seasons and knows the system much better.

you forget that Arnautović is a large presence in defence which I think he proved yesterday

If you want to put a striker in to head balls in defense, do it in the 77th minute when Sanchez came on, not in the 60th minute. Arna did not come in to defend the scoreboard, he came in to score goals and it is incredible that he continues to have priority given that Arnautovic has shown less than sanchez
