"We didn't need Sanchez at all. We just panicked ourselves into buying him because City were interested."

Some Manchester United supporters on social media are voicing their regret about the club's decision to sign Alexis Sanchez. The Chilean joined United from Arsenal in January, as part of a swap deal which saw Henrikh Mkhitaryan move to the Emirates. United fans were very excited when Sanchez arrived, and rightly so. The former Barcelona forward is a world-class player at the peak of his powers, and he appeared to be an ideal fit for his new club. But so far it hasn't gone to plan. Sanchez has scored once in six games and he failed to make an impact away to Sevilla in the goalless draw on Wednesday night. This could be down to Jose Mourinho's limited tactics, as Sanchez is just the latest creative attacking player to underwhelm under the United manager. But it seems some fans of the club have already had enough of him. https://twitter.com/Chukky15/status/966432921832820737 https://twitter.com/hesham786/status/966365961715634183 https://twitter.com/Aliyu_MG/status/966413480847986688 https://twitter.com/CopyOfOne/status/965634109983875072 https://twitter.com/ogollah_dennis/status/966496351034003456 https://twitter.com/kwabena_afari/status/966426883452751877 https://twitter.com/Mark_Champ20ns/status/966411187243159552 https://twitter.com/veezy_son/status/966561323600445441 https://twitter.com/MartiaIArt/status/966383733547905024 https://twitter.com/ezenwa_george/status/966385778657021953 https://twitter.com/the_mubarak/status/966425449021739014 https://twitter.com/redwomble13/status/966567532579745793
