Alexis Sanchez hasn’t been that successful since his arrival at the club, but the 30-year-old has the ability to produce some stellar performances through his individual brilliance. Sanchez was a vital cog of Arsenal’s forward line and the Chilean will be expected to live up to his reputation.

The striker can outrun the best defences on his day with his accelerating pace and aggressive runs. His counter-attacks can floor the best defences combined with his one-touch passes. Sanchez has got this unique ability to make inroads in the opposition’s territory with his speed and clever moves.

His partnership with Romelu Lukaku in the forward line will be crucial. Sanchez is a kind of player who can infuse a lot of energy in any side he is playing for and it is his fighting spirit that might inspire his teammates to produce some positive results. The former Arsenal player netted 9 goals in 31 games in the last Premier League season with 6 assists to his name and Jose Mourinho will surely be banking on his ability to deliver during crunch situations.
