In his last full season in the Premier League at Arsenal, Alexis Sanchez was so potent that he was ranked among the best players in England. But in his first few months at Old Trafford, he scored only three goals in 18 games.

This coming season though, could be a crucial season for the forward as there have been several encouraging signs which have suggested he could deliver for Manchester United after some impressive showings during United’s pre-season tour.

During his 2016-17 Premier League season for Arsenal, Alexis Sanchez produced 24 goals and 11 assists, which is a brilliant record. He ranked top for chances created for Manchester United during the last five months of the league. These prove that Sanchez could be a vital player for United this season.

And he will be desperate to hit the ground running with a strong start to the season. Moreover, he can have no excuses with a full pre-season behind him and no issues with fatigue after not being involved in the World Cup this year.

Sanchez’s importance will only increase this season and it seems clear that the experienced forward needs to take responsibility and influence games for Manchester United. But there is no doubt that he will deliver for the 20-time Premier League champions.

He has the winning mentality and the experience to become an important player as United look to start the season strongly, and ultimately win the Premier League title after five years. He will surely want to win his first Premier League Golden Boot and place his name among one of Premier League greats, which he is quite capable of.
