Arsene Wenger insists Arsenal ace Sanchez is going nowhere
That is the damning verdict of former Leeds star-turned-pundit Danny Mills.
Arsenal have made a poor start to their Premier League, and they were on the wrong end of a 4-0 thrashing away to Liverpool.
Summer signings Alexandre Lacazette and Sead Kolasinac were left out of Arsene Wenger’s starting line-up and the Gunners’ back three were torn apart by the pace and power of Mohamed Salah, Roberto Firmino and Sadio Mane.
Sanchez, meanwhile, has been tipped to leave the Gunners this summer as he is into the final year of his contract.

Mills believes the north London outfit would be a completely different prospect without the Chilean.
And he is in no doubt about the state the Gunners find themselves in.
“Arsene [Wenger] brought in and developed Robert Pires and Thierry Henry and they got better and better," Mills told Sky Sports.
“I’m not sure whether Wenger has gone too stale or become a little bit complacent or too stubborn.

Meanwhile, the Gunners are set to wave goodbye to Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain.
