Spammers ball boys recognise Genius!! Nice touch with the shirt gloves and selfie Alexis. What a player!!

[Topside Northbank]

Sanchez different class

They were extremely lucky to get away with a 5-1 hiding.....their keeper kept it from being at least 7 or 8.

Alexis - a league apart

West Ham next season - a league apart

Where would we be without Alexis Sanchez !?????

The guy has the best engine I have seen from an Arsenal player since the Invincible team, he is intelligent, he NEVER gives up and he scores some sublime goals!

[Redarmy]

Thing about Sanchez is he takes some terrible tackles....but seems indestructible ....just gets up and runs off...is he made of steel or what????

Slight but necessary amendment there!

Just play Xhaka and Coquelin together holding the middle for the rest of the season ToolFace. They are the only 2 natural holders in the team and broke up just about everything today. Fuck Elneny - yeah yeah he runs all day etc, but lets be honest, he's more average than Joe Average from Averageshire

Uncanny!!!!!

Kos was really good again. Mustafi solid (never lost a game where he's started).
Gabriel had a pretty solid game, no mistakes at all.
Monreal may have his downsides but I think we can see that he's a million miles ahead of Gibbs.
Xhaka and Coq need to be the starting central midfielders without question going forward, until Cazorla comes back into the mix (if ever).
Ozil solid.
Ox was bad the first 20 mins but i thought he played his best game for us in ages.
Walcott anonymous and Ramsey was worse when he came on. (Ramsey started 3 games this season, loss to Liverpool, the draw that should have been a loss to Man U, and the loss the Southampton. No surprise here).

Sanchez was brilliant. Love his game and his attitude. Pay him and and Ozil whatever they are asking for, it's worth it.

Left out Feo as well his miss kick when through on goal second half was actually thinking what you posted Bard but a 5-1 win away happy days.

Sanchez you beaut
Break the bank to ensure he signs a new contract, he is almost priceless in the current market

What a performance from Sanchez. The only depressing part of today, is that I don't see him staying beyond the summer. Even if the club offer him a huge pay rise, I doubt he wants to sign up for another few years of battling for the VT.

Agree with all of that. Ox will be a great player for someone other than us one day, because the Coach of the Decade has criminally wasted his talent whilst he's been with us. Imagine being a 2nd choice right midfielder to Ramsey?

Ramsey should be sold for the good of himself and the club - he's an absolute laughing stock of a player now....so bad, he's hit Eboue status

Thankfully Planky didn't get much of a test today, and the crossbar spared him from the latest "shock horror, goal from outside the area" story - what a leaden footed waste of space he really is - my least popular keeper since Flapper
