Who is Manchester United’s quickest player? Sprint tests reveal Alexis Sanchez is SLOWER than Juan Mata
Alexis Sanchez was beaten by Juan Mata during a routine speed drill in Manchester United training, according to reports.The Chile forward will not play again in 2018 after sustaining a hamstring injuryz, but surely can not wait for the year to end.3

Manchester United boss Mourinho looks at Sanchez during training

In the space of 12 months, Sanchez has gone from one of the most feared forwards in the Premier League at Arsenal to a player United have signed, then tried to sell in the space of nine months.According to The Independent, the 29-year-old is burnt out, he was beaten during the club’s sprint tests by Mata – a player hardly renowned for his pace.Arsene Wenger revered the diminutive forward when he managed him at the Emirates, but even he was surprised Manchester United came after him in the January transfer window.Always keen to use science and stats to get the best out of his players, the former Gunners boss regularly talked about the ‘red zone’ Sanchez pushed himself into to get the best out of himself.3

Sanchez showed signs of burning out towards the end of his stint at Arsenal

In his homeland, Sanchez was playing 38 games in a season as early as 2005 having made his debut as a 15-year-old for Cobreloa. He has since amassed 124 caps for his country, making him the most-capped player of all time.Nicknamed ‘ElNio Maravilla”(The Wonder Child), the forward is quite simply burnt out at a stage in his career where he should be at his peak, much like Wayne Rooney.The former Red Devils skipper is now plying his trade in MLS with DC United after 15 years in the Premier Leaguewithout any major injuries.Sanchez is now some way off the quickest player at Manchester United, Romelu Lukaku astounded critics by hitting top speeds of34.84km per hour against Chelsea last season.3

The forward has been a fully-fledged international since 2006

Perhaps unsurprisingly, there are no United players in the top 15 quickest players in the league this season, with Jose Mourinho’s dour approach somewhat limiting the rapid, attacking football United fans crave.This season has seen them make their worst start to a season in 28 years, with the visit of in-form Arsenal hardly likely to provide any respite.
