He won us the game.
He was my motm today. Hopefully this is his coming of age for united game
Finally showed what 900k/week gives you.
Beautiful assist to Pogba. We need more runs like that, because that's what he can produce.
£1.25m a week for two assists?
@Damien
Assist vs Yeovil
Goal vs huddersfield
Assist vs Huddersfield (cup)
Goal+assist vs Swansea
2 assists vs City
Thanks. I'll see if I can change it later.
Never understand why posters get shirty with wages! Without him today we would have lost the game. Next season he (IMHO) will be a superstar for us.
£1.5 million per week well spent if this is the standard to come.
It was kind of perfect that Sanchez and Pogba were the ones to put City to the sword today.
That chip pass to Pogba was definitely worth the £2m weekly wage.
His best moments came when he drifted to the right.
Agreed, £3.5m/week seems like a snip now.
I think that £5m per 'chip pass' incentive in his contract is really paying off.
Yet both of his assists came from the leftHis best moments came when he drifted to the right.
Yeah but one was a set piece. He started the move for the first goal from the right wing.Yet both of his assists came from the left
His first assist was from the left though. He also won the freekick for the winning assist from that flank.
Exactly this, the assists today were marvellous. He's really starting to find form for us now, I still don't think we'll see the best of him until next season though.
Much better today from Sanchez and built on a good performance against Swansea. I have to say though that I'm not a fan of playing him on the left. He was much better 2nd half when he was moved in field. I prefer Rashford/Martial to play on the left and in today's system, Pogba excelled after the switch - I think Sanchez often drops too deep and occupies the same spaces that Pogba wants to be in which can be a problem.
I really hope this isn't too early to say this but I'm genuinely excited about what Sanchez could do for us both this season and next now, it seems like it's clicked
Im happy he is finally showing us what £4.2 million a week can do!
Haha, good man!His best moments came when he drifted to the right.
Best game for United.
Welcome to Alexis, Manchester!
Where's the Pogba interview?
Finally we saw some of his magic today, can't wait for the next season with him havign a proper preseason with the first team
Involved in all the goals today. Nearly 3 assists (2 and 1 pass-cross before the assist). Pogba grabbed the headlines but Alexis was the unsung hero in the game imo. With no world cup this summer for him, hopefully he will be fully unleashed and ready at the start of the next season. More of that please.
He made it last night. The set up he created for our first goal is brilliant not to mention two late assists. This is Sanchez everyone wants to see

Hes gradually been getting better. Had brilliant moments and a good all round match but theres more to come imo. Gave him motm because for all intents and purposes he created all 3 goals (nice knockdown by Hererra too tbf).
His and pogbas second Half performances fill me with optimism. Two top level players paying at their best level and it was fantastic
You got mixed up. Created the first off the right and the next one off the left. The final off the left with a free-kick. All 3 delicious deliveries.
Don't know how 77% of you voted for Pogba for MOTM.
This is the man.
This is the man.
He was world class today. He’s one of our players who can consistently put in performances like these over the course of a season.
While standing over the free-kick for the winning goal, he was telling the players exactly what he wanted them to do, the City defense must have seen that, he put that ball exactly where everyone expected him to put it and it was right on the money. He created that goal in his mind and executed it too. That’s what you get when you combine creativity with talent.

Sensational second half, I think he'll kick on next season. Nice and settled, and a rising force in our attacking lineup.
Uh. Alexis played deeper in second half and for the good cause, which allowed Pogba to make runs forwards. That doesn't fit what you said here. Mourinho also confirmed in his post match press conference, that he asked both Lingard and Alexis to try to connect more with the midfield in the second half, which Alexis really did. First half, Alexis was more forward than a creator. Noticed at one point in first half Lukaku was stationed on left wing while Sanchez was in no 9 position. Another instance where Pogba drew a foul from Danilo as if Pogba was left sided attacker with Alexis drifted centrally up the pitch waiting for service.
Best performance from him for us and the higher profile game this season as a whole from what I had seen him for Arsenal. Feck Wenger. Take some doing to suck all kind of form from a player like Alexis who shows great desire.
What a performance!
What a player!
My favourite part was when he wanted to take the free kick that led to the goal. I absolutely loved the way he was nudging the rest of the team to go forward and attack the ball he was going to cross. He showed passion and confidence in himself and the team. It was like, "What are you guys waiting for? Move forward! Attack this cross. I am going to whip it in!"
I was delighted the ball went in.
I know it is way too early and unlikely but I will like to have Alexis as captain. My second choice will be Nemanja Matic. Even when they play poorly you can see that United spirit in them. They give their all. They fight. Lukaku is another example.

What a buzz this guy is giving us in this game. The way he picked up Pogba for the second goal is a beauty. More please of this kind of performance.
He’ll be better after a pre-season with us
