Expectations For Sanchez's Second Season

Page 1 of 2

Amazing first season

Just want him to keep it simple at times. Spends too much time on the ball at times and can be greedy.

Even Szcz mention it once in his interview

Looking forward to seeing him and walcott in the team

Probably similar to Antonio Valencia.

In fact Valencia performed better in his first season for United than Sanchez did for Arsenal but has been diabolical ever since, great chance Sanchez will go the same way

If others can step up from the off I think we will see a different Alexis.
First half of his first season and he was carrying us. Second half I think he tired, and didn't really fit into the team as well as maybe he did first half.

Also not sure Mr Wenger has found the best role for him yet.

Would like him to make some more off the ball runs rather than always running with the ball from deep. Otherwise, just a brilliant player

I didn't answer the question

I expect him to step up and be even better this season, with a stronger team around him and a freshness in him.

Think he'll do fine next season. Seems to talented and hard working to flop.

I get that people think he can be greedy, and he can. But for me I think that's part of him, and contributes to his greatness. He's not afraid to take players on, and often he will beat them. If we tell him to stop being greedy and take less risks, you could danger taking away a big part of his game. Sometimes it's good to have a greedy player. Especially at arsenal, where half the team refuse to even shoot! He's probably our only greedy player. So I don't think it's a big problem.

There are limits obviously, but most of the time I don't mind him keeping the ball and taking on players, even if he loses it. Because a lot of the time he succeeds. Plus when he dies lose it, he puts in a good shift to get it back again.

First half of the season when our overall team play was shambolic & disjointed he carried us as he is a one man wrecking ball. He is a match winner of the highest order but I won't lie, I was a bit disappointed with his overall team game.

Not the greatest of passers, can choose the wrong option in the final third (something most if not all arsenal players are guilty of) and he messes up so many counter attacks.

I sincerely hope Wenger can make him improve in terms of his overall team game, passing & awareness of teammates. If he can improve that by even 50% he will comfortably be the best player in the league.

Either way even if he doesn't improve in that aspect he is still a magnificent match winner and at his age I expect a lot more magical seasons.

I'm looking forward to what the Ox will do. He is key. If he catches fire and matches the goals & assists Walcott normally gets when he plays a full season then we will be untouchable.

With Sanchez you kinda know what you will get.

Sanchez has played the more games then any other PL players this season. He needs to be brought on slowly or risk having burnt him out.
I am sure Wenger will approach Sanchez situation with care and if he does intended to bring him into the team gradually. I predict he will have best performance second half of the season where he will be smashing tired teams left and right.

So glad that Sanchez won the Copa.

Chile were the hosts & this was a golden generation. Their tournament, their time. If they'd lost - especially in the Final on pens - it would have been a huge psychological blow.

But as it is, Alexis should be buzzing having made history. Bit like Ozil with a World Cup title, Cazorla with a Euro title & Cech with numerous PLs & a CL win.

They're playing with 'house money' if you will.

A shortening of Wat agwan - whats going on. I hate when silly English kiddies use Caribbean dialect to be cool and get it wrong.

You're a fool.

Number4

Will be shocked if he is anywhere near as good this season as he was last.

Honestly think Sanchez can be the player of the year next season can see him being like Suarez was for us in his final yesr, had everything you want in a footballer.

He's the kind of players who wins you titles

If he's on the left wing I might be tearing my hair out after a few games. I can only watch somebody cut in and lose the ball so much.

Dubbed good to see you jumping on the Alexis is overrated train. We need to get more people on board, he's easily our most overrated player.

posted on 12/7/15

Will be even better than last year, which is a scary prospect

Overall I can't wait till next season, the most optimism I've had for over ten years. I honestly think we will utterly destroy teams next year

100 goals with ozil getting 100 assists

Giroud will be our wiltord

Hope we sell him and sign Reus. Reus can do everything Alexis can and doesn't give the ball away. Alexis is the reincarnation of Gervinho. Get rid ASAP
