The 29-year-old’s move to Old Trafford has had a huge impact, with fans, pundits and former professionals all weighing in with their opinion on the deal.
Alexis Sanchez arrives at United expected to be the man to bring the glory days back to the club, who have struggled to challenge for major silverware since the retirement of Sir Alex Ferguson five years ago.

The Premier League already looks out of reach at the moment, with United 12 points behind Manchester City at the summit.
And the Independent say Mourinho wanted three huge deals to help United hit top form in the future.
Sanchez, being a winger, capable of playing down the middle and a big name all in one, ticks all the boxes.
Meanwhile, Red Devils legend Ryan Giggs thinks the signing of the former Arsenal forward has already had a positive impact on his new team-mates.

"Alexis Sanchez is similar to Robin van Persie in the sense that they're getting a ready-made superstar and you're seeing the contribution already with Anthony Martial upping his performances," he wrote for Sky Sports.
"That can happen when top players come in, those around them lift their levels, and there will be some difficult selection decisions for Jose Mourinho.
"However, Sanchez can also play on the right, as he did at Barcelona, so if Martial is flying then he may have to play in a different position, but those sort of decisions are positive for a manager to have to make.
"It is an extra bonus that he can play in the Champions League. To have somebody like that, who won't be fazed by playing in the big games, makes the squad look really strong."
