#3 Alexis Sanchez

Alexis’ contract situation hasn’t slowed him down

Olivier Giroud’s injury means that Arsene Wenger in all probability will move the Chilean again to the number 9 position where he has been lethal. Sanchez, in fact, is currently tied for the top scorer's spot with Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Diego Costa with 14 goals.

However, a thing to note here is that the Chilean has also set up his teammates 8 times over the league campaign. This means that the player averages at least 1 goal involvement per match and this makes him too good to ignore. If you’re someone who has still not taken the player it would be wise to do it now.

Arsenal’s next game is against Burnley at home. The Gunners had quite a tough time breaking down their defence in the reverse fixture but a trip to the Emirates might prove to be a task too hard to handle for Burnley who have conceded 11 goals in their last 5 away games.

Next 3 fixtures: Burnley(H), Watford(H), Chelsea(A)
