Arsenal wantaway Alexis Sanchez made his return to action after being subbed on to face Bournemouth at the Emirates this weekend.

The Chilean star had been angling for a move to Manchester City on deadline day but a deal failed to materialise in the final hours of the transfer window.

City keeper Claudio Bravo stated compatriot Sanchez went from 'happiness to bitterness' as the move broke down, and that was clear to see as stony-faced Sanchez returned to Arsenal duties.

The Gunners were 3-0 up at the time when Sanchez entered the field, making his glum mood even more peculiar as is team-mates relished in the victory.
