Imagine Reus and Sanchez alternating up top particulalry when Sanchez vacates space with Ozil behind running the show
Probably my biggest gripe with Sanchez being played as a CF is that we take our best wide player and move him centrally and lose that quality
out wide, essentially it’s just plugging one hole whilst simultaneously leaving another wide open.
Yep - I think this is one of the key reasons he didn’t get shifted up front earlier - not only was it a risk from a striker perspective, but it also opened a gaping hole out left, which we really don’t have an answer to still… having another dynamic attacker out left and letting Ozil, Sanchez, Reus-type, and one of Theo/Iwobi/Ox (or better yet, upgrade) interchange and move around would cause defenses all sorts of issues…
That’s how I feel, but if Wenger and the board feel that way its absolutely disgraceful. Wenger Should have faith in his own abilities to get more out of the squad if he spends the money.
This is classic. Instead of targeting Marco Reus so WE DON’T LOSE SANCHEZ, we’re already making our preparations for his departure and Reus won’t come here because there aren’t enough big players to play with.
