I know that, but he lacked the 5th gear he used to have. That's not tiredness. Arsenal and Barcelona have had his best years. I know he has other aspects to his game apart from his speed, and he's had another great season but like Aguero I think the trajectory of his game is downwards
That will be why he had such a shit season then, or is this downward trajectory all in the very few weeks since the end of the season?

He just scored 30 goals and got 20 assists in a season.

If that's him without 5th gear we don't need 5th gear.
 
He's carrying an ankle injury and was run into the ground by Arsenal, another reason to come to a club that can rest him.
Yup. He showed that picture of his ankle twice the size of his other, then bloody went and played 2 more matches on it.

Has that passion for the game, but also slightly worrying knack, like Kompany perhaps, where he sometimes doesn't know when to take a break for his own preservation.
 
It shows how far you have to derive to find something to flap about regarding Sanchez. You really try hard.
He's 29, and made his name as a player withe explosive power. That's going. I know he's got a lot of quality too, but I really doubt he could maintain his current goals and assists in a City team where he'd be told to play a specific role. He's a great player probably the best in the Premier league, and I know that I am being a bit one sided but quality does decline. We've seen it happen very quickly with our own players.
