Manchester United duo Alexis Sanchez and Victor Lindelof were among the high-profile footballers panned in Marca's 'The Worst' awards.
The pair received the dubious honour of being named Worst Attacker and Worst Defender respectively in the Spanish publication's parody awards ceremony of FIFA's The Best.
While FIFA's The Best aims to recognise all that is good about football over the course of a season, Marca (via Sport Witness) choose to highlight the under-performers in the game, with Sanchez and Lindelof featuring prominently.
The United pair were both also named in 'The Worst XI', alongside the likes of Arsenal's Mesut Ozil and Liverpool's on loan goalkeeper Loris Karius, who is currently plying his trade for Fenerbahce.
After his costly errors in the Champions League final in May, Karius scooped Worst Goalkeeper, while Nice's Wesley Sneidjer was Worst Midfielder.
Marca's version follows swiftly on from Monday Night's The Best ceremony, during which Real Madrid Luka Modric lifted the main award ahead of Cristiano Ronaldo and Mohamed Salah.
Midfielder Modric topped the public vote with 29.05%, while Ronaldo (19.08%) and (11.23%) came second and third.
Thibaut Courtois was named Best Goalkeeper, with Didier Deschamps scooping Best Coach after his World Cup win with France and Brazil international Marta lifting the Women's award.

Funny that. Who remembers Zlatan saying Lindleoff was the new coming of christ hahhahaa utd fans were having street parties and everything
he's the best Swedish talent rn(excluding ibra). He just moved to a bigger league it's just gonna take time for him to adapt and near the middle-end of last season he found very good form and was great against leister

Thought lindelof had a good world cup and can think of plenty worse. Sanchez... a bigger disaster than Sinclair's c5
Yeah I agree also near the middle to end of last season he started to find his form. alot of people don't realize how difficult I can be to settle into a new club

Hard to disagree. Lindelöf is the worst defender I've seen at United he cant do anything a defender should do. He's weak, cant win a header, cant pass, cant win a tackle and hes slow.
actually lindelof is quite a good CB. in games with him and bailey last season they were very good and in the Leister game they were extremely good. hes gonna be integral to United in the future imo, but everyone has there own opinion. cheers ✌

Man Utd's season so far: Alexis Sanchez forgets how to play football 8 points off the top of league after only 6 games Out of the Carabao Cup at the first hurdle Mourinho, Pogba & the board falling out The rest of the team forget how to play football.

Sanchez, the highest paid worst striker of the month. What an achievement. United should be glad they signed him, a new milestone for the club.

Bailly and Smalling have been United best CB's over the last year yet cannot remember ever seeing them play together..its a must Jose and will allow United the freedom to play with more attacking CM...As for Sanchez..Rashford Martial every day ..the Chiliean as an impact Sub if he's lucky...

The awards could not have gone to two more deserving players. Both have been absolutely woeful who looks as if wearing the red shirt of the club weighs far too heavily on their shoulders.

Sometimes you have to say to yourself 'things are good, life is good, I don't need more...' Sanchez was loved at Arsenal, he won trophies at Arsenal, he was offered a big contract at Arsenal, life was good. Now? Money's good, life? Not so good.

Can't argue with that. I'd put Sanchez as our worst signing in 10 years for his performances and the fact we didn't actually need him.....
