The Gunners are unbeaten since their opening day defeat to Liverpool and the major reason of that is the form of a certain Chilean. Alexis Sanchez has started the 2016-17 season brightly, scoring four goals on the way. He has also produced two assists in the six games that he has played as Arsenal sit in third place on the table with 16 points, just two behind Manchester City.

Sanchez has scored in away victories for Arsenal against Watford and Southampton while scoring a delightful goal against Chelsea at the Emirates. He has also been sensational in the Champions League till now after scoring a goal against Paris Saint-Germain and providing two assists in a 2-0 win over Basel. The Chilean needs to continue his Midas touch if this Arsenal squad wants to give a fitting gift to Arsene Wenger for his 20 years of service to the club.
