Man Utd played strong XI for Sheffield Utd friendly

Manchester United fielded a strong line-up for yesterday's friendly against Sheffield United.

Alexis Sanchez, Juan Mata, Chris Smalling and Phil Jones all featured against the Blades.

Andreas Pereira, Mason Greenwood and Angel Gomes reportedly all scored in a 3-1 win for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side against a Blades outfit featuring the likes of Phil Jagielka, Ollie McBurnie and the former United midfielder Ravel Morrison, all of whom signed for the club this summer.

The selection of Sanchez in the game is sure to raise eyebrows, with the Chilean seemingly close to completing a switch to Inter Milan.

Marcos Rojo, who is said to be close to leaving the club, didn't feature, reports the Mirror.
