Arsenal’s Sanchez always striving to be the best

Arsenal forward Alexis Sanchez has revealed that he will always remain professional as he strives to be amongst the world’s best players.

The Chilean superstar is in his peak at present, and given his new role within the Gunners set-up, his true creative presence is beginning to shine through.

Since joining Arsenal, he has always been a bright spark within the side who shows amazing ability, but since making the switch to centre-forward, it has highlighted his true brilliance all-round.

Sanchez has the movement to free up his fellow players, the ability to put the ball at the feet of running players, such as his ball to Theo Walcott against Manchester City at the weekend, as well as his exciting skills and shooting.

The star himself has now revealed what makes him tick, and his ambition is something you can rarely find in footballers nowadays.

Sanchez said: ‘I have always been like this. My career won’t last forever and I am aiming to be one of the best players in the world. I want to do my best and be professional until my career ends.

‘I enjoy football a lot, I always wanted to be one of the best players in the world and I’ve been saying that since I was a little boy. I will slow down after I retire, but for the time being I will carry on like this.

‘I just try to train well, sleep well and be professional at my job. There´s no much of a secret to it.’

This sport is clearly a way of life for Alexis and we are blessed to have such a great attitude within our playing squad.

How long can Alexis stay at the top of his game for? Is he amongst the top five players in the world? Where does he rank for you?
