Alexis Sanchez and Joel Campbell

Campbell was not all that impressive against Sheffield United and that was a bit upsetting. He has had so few opportunities but the ones he has had have not turned out incredibly well. And yet Arsene Wenger is insistent that the Costa Rican still has a lot to give to Arsenal.

Now would be a good time to start, with the right side of the pitch a gaping hole. Aaron Ramsey will be back in a couple weeks so Campbell will have a few games to impress. He has plenty of quality and if you put him around Alexis Sanchez and Mesut Ozil, good things will happen.

At least that’s the idea.

And then there is Alexis Sanchez. I may weep the first time he touches the ball on Saturday. But not because Arsenal is dependent on him. Arsenal proved against Bayern Munich that even without Alexis at his best, they could still grind out wins.

For all the fire that Le Coq has, Alexis will be able to match it. When is the last time he’s had seven days of rest?
