Inter Milan loan signing Alexis: Stats prove I'm no Man Utd flop

Inter Milan loan signing Alexis Sanchez insists his statistics at Manchester United prove he was no flop.

Alexis made the claim while with Chile's squad today.

“I would have liked to play more with [Romelu] Lukaku," Sanchez said. “I think in the little we played together we did well.

“And when I became a starter under [Jose] Mourinho in the second season - because I was always playing 60 minutes, did well and then the next game I didn't play- if you look at the statistics, I didn't lose a game as a starter.

“Even against Juventus I was a starter, what did we do? We beat Juve 2-1. I didn't lose a game and I left unbeaten, even if it was sometimes 60 or 70 minutes, I didn't lose a game [as a starter] if you look at the stats."
