Alexis Sanchez
The Chilean has been one of Arsenal’s stand-out performers of the season, having netted 24 goals in all competitions so far during his debut North London career.
The speed at which Alexis has settled into the league has been highly admirable. He’s been the best signing of the summer but we must be wary of the crucial ‘second season syndrome’.
Santi Cazorla had a similar outstanding debut season at Arsenal but it’s safe to say the Spaniard failed to carry the same form into his 2nd season.
There’s a possibility that Alexis will go through the same common struggles as his teammate, but beyond that there’s high expectations of the player.
