Honesty, Inzaghi doesn't use him much like Conte. I think because he was behind Correa and Dzeko.
Last season we had Pinamonti, which is now Sanchez position.
Actually in my point of view, he is just not ready to accept 4th striker position, he want 3rd striker position, which is will never he get as long Correa and Dzeko there.

In my opinion, Sanchez was the best subs player last season. Inzaghi doesn't rate him high like Conte.

The only problem with Inzaghi's approach is that Sanchez even now is better than Correa will ever be. Sanchez's energy and quality changes games in the last 30 minutes. I understand why he doesn't start, his fitness isn't what it used to be, but its really stupid to not use him as a super sub. Specially coz the way our games are going, we could really use a player like him.

Sanchez will never start ahead Correa cause Correa is Inzaghi boy. Just like Spalletti with Nainggolan, or Conte with Lukaku.

3 full 90minutes in one week, 3 assists, well seems he has minutes in his legs after all.

Still shouldn't have posted that instastory though.

I suspect Inzaghi benching Sanchez so far had something to to do either making FIFA pay his wages or making Sanchez want to leave (to get rid of his wages) or Inzaghi trying to prove that he didn't make Inter waste 35m on Correa. Or perhaps a combination of some of these factors.

Coz from a pure sporting perspective, Sanchez is still quality at creating goals, as he showed last season and for Chile last week.

I think that Alexis is just not so important now with our new gung ho attacking style. I mean, he was useful under Conte, when we had to break tight defenses but now his ball hugging is not so efficient because we are anyway creating enough chances. The problem is finishing and that we don't have a pacy forward. Sanchez is neither one of them.

Alexis Sanchez is a realistic option for Newcastle, high profile player and affordable for the start of there building, fans will cream, we will cream.

Just a thought of mine, nothing in it.

Alexis down to 4th striker from 3rd striker. Lautaro 1st, Dzeko 2nd, Correa 3rd, Alexis 4th, and Satriano 5th.
Lautaro is the main man, i am sure all of you know how important Lautaro this season.
Dzeko already bang some goals, and had different charactheristic with Lautaro.
Correa is Inzaghi favourite.
Alexis never get chance unless two of them injured. This is huge problem, i don't know why Inzaghi doesn't want rotate them even our schedule is busy.

Wages aside, Alexis is better player than Correa imo. They both are not scorers but Alexis is better in terms of passing, dribbling and he's wiser than Correa. Tuco is better in terms of speed, but that's it.

I dont like players/coaches who complain in public, but i understand Alexis. He deserves more playing time, especially if its him Vs Correa.

I actually think the playing time for Chile was a good thing for us this time. We needed him to get in form and it’s better he does that when we don’t have to suffer through it.

He got depressed in Manchester, you think he'll manage it in Tyneside?

Not even close. Inzaghi'd rather play Perisic as SS there. Or change the formation completely to 3-5-1-1 and put whoever midfielder there like Hakan, Sensi instead of using Satriano.

We are wasting his talent by not loaning him out.

Would you like to see Satriano play today in this game?

I think he's driven by money
Who's not? But if he was solely driven by money he wouldn't take a cut in his contract with Man Utd. It's obvious he still has some dogs in him that he wants to play but unfortunately fitness and (Inzaghi?)got in a way.
