Why Solskjaer dropped Alexis Sanchez for Man Utd’s 1-0 win over Tottenham
Alexis Sanchez was left
out of Manchester United’s squad to face Tottenham, because of an ongoing
hamstring problem, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has revealed.
The Chilean made his
first start under the Norwegian during a 2-0 FA Cup win against Reading, but
was forced off after an hour after feeling his hamstring.
The problem kept the
30-year-old out of action for all of December, but Sanchez was able to train throughout
United’s trip to Dubai this week.
However, on return to
Manchester, Sanchez felt the problem again and Solskjaer is hopeful he will
return for next week’s match Brighton.
“He (Alexis) is not
ready yet. Hopefully, or I think so, he will be training when we get back.
Maybe on Wednesday he will be in full training.
“He is just having a
hard time getting rid of it. Maybe next week he could be involved,” Solskjaer
said according to UK Metro.
