EPL: ‘He’s a problem’ – Paul Scholes identifies Chelsea player Alonso should replace

Manchester United legend, Paul Scholes, has identified goalkeeper Robert Sanchez as the player incoming Chelsea manager Xabi Alonso should replace.

Scholes spoke while speaking with former Manchester United teammate Nicky Butt on The Good, The Bad & The Football podcast.

“I think the goalkeeper is a problem there at Chelsea; he’s a liability. He can’t play the way they will want to play,” Butt said.

Responding to Butt’s comments, Scholes said, “With the way Chelsea will play, I agree. He can’t do it. I’m pretty sure Xabi Alonso will want to play that way, to build out from the back, so he will need a new goalkeeper then.”

Alonso is preparing to take charge at Chelsea after being appointed as the Blues’ new manager on a four-year deal.
