Here comes the Sanchez

Arsenal 2-0 West Brom

Of all the things that need to happen this summer – clear-out, existential reappraisal, signings that exude ambition – nonsense about the futures of Alexis Sanchez and Mesut Ozil are not one of them.

Better late than never, but Sanchez is back to his dangerous best. A trademark bullet from outside the box and a finger-licking free-kick saw off the toothless Baggies in a game in which we should have been more ruthless but, somewhat typically, weren’t.

What would I do if I was Arsenal? I’d start the wooing now.

For our fidgety Chilean, I’d be fedexing round several cases of Winalot for his pooches.

If ‘Winalot’ doesn’t signal ambition, I don’t what will.

I should be in PR.

Arsenal since about 1979. Thick, thin and all that.

    “Then the coincidence of fixtures. Now we play Sunderland, and we could have played a Sunderland on holiday with nothing to go for, in March and April that has a big influence. I have seen games recently where teams didn’t turn up. That has changed a bit in the Premier League as well.”

    That’s Arsene talking about why we didn’t win the league. I presume he’s suggesting that all of poor, unlucky Arsenal’s opponents did turn up. Everton ? Watford ? Palace ? West Brom ? Laughable stuff.
    Since Christmas if you analyse it, the fixture list has actually been fantastic to us…

    Still it’s nice to have another excuse for the AKBs to cling to…
