Crystal Palace saw a two goal lead slip away at Selhurst Park as Manchester United fought back from two goals down to claim a 3-2 win.

Goals from Andros Townsend and Patrick van Aanholt seemed to have set Roy Hodgson’s side on course for a first top flight win against United in 19 games dating back to 1991 but the visitors battled back as Chris Smalling, Romelu Lukaku and Nemanja Matic secured a win.

Paul Pogba and Alexis Sanchez were both criticised for their performances during Manchester United's Premier League fixture against Crystal Palace.

Pogba and Sanchez were part of the United side that was 1-0 down at half time after Andros Townsend's opener at Selhurst Park on Monday night.

United's £89million record signing Pogba was the first to come under scrutiny.

The France international misplaced a number of passes, which Sky Sports pundit Gary Neville highlighted at half time.

He said: ‘His great strength is that he plays with freedom and like he's playing on the park with his mates and it's like everyone he does is like a YouTube or an Instagram video. It's like it's not serious it's like a joke to him in terms of the way in which he goes about things. 

Jamie Carragher, who was also appearing as a pundit on Sky Sports, decided to focus on Sanchez before also turning on Pogba.

He highlighted how Sanchez had been United's most wasteful player in the first half. 

He said: ‘You mentioned Pogba... look at how sloppy Manchester United and how poor they've been in possession You've mentioned Pogba but I think Sanchez has been worse. 

"Sanchez has lost the ball 19 times in that first half and that's unbelievable. We're talking about a supposed world class player. But I don't know where he's playing.'

Carragher finished his critique of the pair by saying both of them appeared too arrogant.

He added: It's like him [Sanchez] and Pogba are like two kids in the schoolyard "we're the best players we'll go wherever we want".’  

One Twitter user said: "Alexis Sanchez has been average since joining Manchester United."

While another commented: "Sanchez has been terrible since he joined Man United, reminds me of
