Alexis Sanchez’s behaviour during Man Utd spell shows Ole Gunnar Solskjaer was right

And all of this shows that Solskjaer has made the right decision.

United, for too long, have signed players who don’t want to be there. Players who end up moving to Old Trafford merely while they wait for another offer to be put on their table.

Angel Di Maria touched down from Real Madrid in 2014 when he really wanted Paris Saint-Germain. A year later, he got the move to the Parc des Princes he desperately wanted.

There were suspicions that Bastian Schweinsteiger only moved to Old Trafford for one last payday when he touched down during Louis van Gaal’s spell in charge.

And United have been keen to sign players with the right character, rather than blockbuster names on blockbuster wages.

In May, Solskjaer opened up on what he looks for in a player by saying: “We’ve tried to educate our players and our kids to be proper people. In my view, the best players have always been the best people.

“You have to have that value system and a certain kind of attitude about you to make a Man Utd player.
