both

It's surprising it happened twice given how awesomely amazingly super England are and what a small football nation Chile are.

[1989]

Chile are better than England so no, wouldn't call it surprising.

fuckin' hell, you're hard work

I was only making a bleedin observation that Salas did a Sanchez a few years earlier at the same stadium and same scoreline. He was also their star man back then - bloody great finisher. Went to Lazio and turned fat... lets hope the Salas/Sanchez comparison stops at Wembley

1/20 with sky bet now for Sanchez to come to The Arsenal Hes coming

Sanchez is the striker!

So you expect Sanchez to be the hold up man all season in a rigid formation that won't benefit him?

I'm certain we'll change our system to suit his qualities.

Alternatively he could be the front man in a more flexible system (more 4-3-3 than 4-5-1) which utilises pace and movement rather than brawn and hold-up play to benefit the team. He could also play on either side of that formation (including in a 4-5-1) and alongside Giroud if switching to a 4-4-2.

I won't get too excited until it is actually confirmed but if we pull this off I think it will be a cracking signing.
