Arsenal won’t sell Mesut Ozil or Alexis Sanchez, Arsene Wenger says
Alexis Sanchez
Sanchez treble keeps Arsenal in the hunt
West Ham 1-5 Arsenal
Alexis Sanchez got a 14-minute hat-trick as Arsenal eased past West Ham United at London Stadium.
The Gunners took the lead on 24 minutes, when Sanchez raced through to square to Mesut Ozil to score.
Sanchez double keeps Arsenal on track
Arsenal 3-1 AFC Bournemouth
Arsenal battled to a 3-1 home victory against AFC Bournemouth thanks to an Alexis Sanchez double.
Sanchez seized on a first-half error by Steve Cook on 12 minutes to round goalkeeper Adam Federici and slide the ball into the empty net.
Bellerin missing for a month
Arsenal right-back Hector Bellerin faces several weeks out of action due to an ankle injury, but the Gunners hope to have Alexis Sanchez available this weekend. Spanish defender Bellerin was injured late on in the 1-1 draw with Tottenham the weekend before last and is set to be missing for around a month due to ligament damage, meaning that he definitely sits out the Old Trafford clash with Manchester United on Saturday.
Giroud calm over Arsenal future
Striker Olivier Giroud has played down reports that he may be tempted to leave Arsenal if he does not become a regular starter once again. The 30-year-old France international has yet to start a Premier League game this season, having been troubled by a toe injury earlier on in the campaign, with Chile international Alexis Sanchez the current first-choice pick of Gunners head coach Arsene Wenger.
