#1 Alexis Sanchez should only play up front
Trending
Does anybody know the reason why Arsene Wenger felt the need to move an in-form striker back to the dreaded left wing? Ever since the switch back to the flanks, Alexis Sanchez has looked a shell of his former self. Throughout the game, the Chilean acted as more of a threat to his own team than to Tottenham.
The 28-year old gave the ball away 12 times in dangerous positions leading to several Tottenham counter-attacks. As a winger, the Chilean is too predictable as he’s forced to receive the ball to feet, meaning he has to risk dribbling or play a lobbed pass.
As a striker, Sanchez’s game relies on through balls allowing him to run in behind defences. The Chilean running onto balls on goal is where he’s at his most dangerous.
