Manchester United hero Paul Parker thinks it would be a mistake to let Paul Pogba and Alexis Sanchez stay at Old Trafford.

Parker believes the 'sulking' attitude of two of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's highest-paid players could be detrimental to the dressing room atmosphere.

The former United defender told Eurosport: "You have to let Pogba and Sanchez go.

"Pogba's a definite one. He wants to go that's been stated, but the only thing he's not done is go on strike. You don't know whether it's struck him to do that.

"When people are watching him week-in-week-out they see what I see. You see him sulking."

He added: "Sanchez was another massive mistake.

"It was a ridiculous signing and it was always going to go wrong. He wasn't needed.

"But how do you get rid of somebody when they're carrying so much money in their wage packet? You'd have to supplement them. You might have to give him over 50% of his wages. It's madness.

"Whatever club he goes to next, they're going to have the same issues as well."
