Chilean admits he often argues with manager
Arsenal star Alexis Sanchez has admitted he often disagrees and argues with Arsene Wenger.
The Chilean has become a key player at the Emirates Stadium since arriving from FC Barcelona back in 2014, and despite struggling for form in recent weeks, he’s still been a regular in the first-team.
However, playing so often has put his fitness in jeopardy and although he insists he’s fine to play week-in, week-out, Wenger often disagrees.
According to Alexis, the duo frequently disagree and row about the winger’s game-time, with the Chilean keen on playing each and every game.
Alexis Reveals Rows
‘I do always want to play so that’s right,’ he said.
‘It’s because football is my passion, it’s my life.
‘Sometimes the manager says to me that I should have a rest but I say “I do not want to rest.”
‘I’d rather go home and use the gym in my house to exercise in order to maintain my form.
‘I’ve always wanted to be a football player. I was born to play football and, God willing, I will be able to continue doing that.
‘Since I was a child I have always been annoyed when we didn’t win. That feeling made me train more, so that the next day I could go out and win again.’
