I'd be laughing too if our rival club had the highest paid player in the Premier League history that actively makes their team worse on the pitch and stunts growth of the youth players.
I guess we've got nothing to lose if we try playing Sanchez through the middle, it's not like Lukaku is doing himself any favours at the moment and that was before the Juventus match when again he was rotten - "In the eight games since the 2-1 win at Watford on September 15, the United forward has neither scored nor created a goal for anyone else. And Lukaku can hardly put it down to poor finishing, on his behalf or that of his team-mates. The 25-year-old has managed just four shots in four Premier League games, none of which have been on target. Harry Kane has attempted four times that number and Sergio Aguero even more, but it’s not just the elite level strikers that have been a greater threat to the opposition goal – 95 players have attempted more shots than Lukaku since his last goal. "
I think it completely disrupts the team too. Like you mentioned, it takes time away from your incredibly talented young players. Now with him earning as much money as he is, you're going to see players like Pogba, Martial, Lukaku, all your big players ask for similar money because of the ridiculous money that he's on. I've truly grown to hate Sanchez, even when he plays for Chile, it's just disgraceful that he chose the money over winning titles and playing in a system that would be absolutely perfect for him.
