He could terrify Bayern… but is Alexis too GOOD for Arsenal?

Arsenal are “flying” and Alexis Sanchez is “scoring for fun”, but Watford can still cause an upset in their Barclays Premier League clash on Saturday, according to striker Odion Ighalo.

Arsene Wenger insists he has not made a decision on his future, despite suggestions this may be his last contract at Arsenal.

And he hinted to shareholders at the club’s annual meeting that should he achieve that then he might step down, having been in charge since 1996. “In the first 20 minutes we were maybe not completely in the game, then slowly we understood we have to commit more”.

Indeed, the former Liverpool and Chelsea boss Rafael Benitez is the 18th different manager at Real Madrid since Wenger took over at Arsenal.

The Gunners have won four of their last five games but after the global break Arsene Wenger feels his side need to re-connect quickly when they walk out on the pitch this Saturday.

Watford brought in experience in the off season with Capoue and Behrami coming in to bring their Premier League experience to the midfield. The confidence is there and once we were 1-0 up or 2-0 up we continued to play and attack.

Wenger, speaking at his pre-match briefing on Thursday said that he did not know if he would be fit to face Watford, whose training ground is next to their own in rural Hertfordshire, just outside London.

In an Eric Cantonaesque seagulls-style, Wenger chipped in adding that it is important to protect that – at all costs – because it can make the difference between winning and losing come the end of the season.

“They are in the mix for me”, Henry told Sky Sports.

I am sure that no one will be more relieved than the Wales worldwide either, because it was blatantly clear earlier in the game that Ramsey´s confident touch on front of goal was still eluding him. Honestly, I said many times I want to do well.

“Alexis is a guy that always wants to play so I knew that was always going to be a tricky situation”. Sanchez is on fire at the moment and he is the one to watch at the moment, although I believe we need to be careful not just against him, but all the players.
