Sanchez laid on two goals as Jose Mourinho's side eased to a 4-0 FA Cup win at Yeovil Town, including a reverse pass for Herrera to thrash in United's second.

Alexis Sanchez completed his transfer from Arsenal to Manchester United in a straight swap deal, where Henrikh Mkhitaryan moved the other way.

Sanchez is in line to make his Premier League debut for United when they travel to face Tottenham at Wembley next Wednesday.

"He was cheap, wasn't he?"

Mourinho was pleased that the matter was dealt with professionally by Arsenal and revealed that such was Sanchez's schedule on the day of his transfer that no one had any clear idea of his location at any given time. "For that price it's fantastic".

"I think Arsenal were very honest in the way they approached the situation", said Mourinho, of Sanchez's missed drugs test, as quoted by Sky Sports. "I love my players and it is a pleasure to know that we are going to be together for at least the next three years".

And United chief Mourinho could not resist a dig at Gunners boss Wenger as he crowed: "Alexis was cheap wasn't he?"

The home side still had a fight in them with 15 minutes left to play and the match was still open as United were looking to end the tie as a contest.

"But I think everybody understands that nobody knew where he was going to be, where he was going to train, where he was going to sleep, was just a period of transfer".

'In big clubs you have big players, you have competition, you have responsibilities, you have to perform always, you have to try to go to every competition in a serious way. The intention of Alexis was certainly not to hide - nor was our intention to hide anything.
