In a poll Daily Cannon ran on Sunday, 32% of Arsenal fans voted for Alexis Sanchez’s hat-trick against West Ham over Dennis Bergkamp’s against Leicester City in 1997.
Bergkamp’s hat-trick will go down in history as one of the most beautiful to ever grace English football.
The first was a lifted, scooped shot, which looked as if it had no power behind it at all yet somehow looped into the top corner.

The second was a cheeky chip, not dissimilar to Alexis’ third against the Hammers.
While the third was a well-controlled, right footed finish that you have to repeatedly watch in order to fully understand.
Despite our Chilean’s lovely hat-trick during the London derby, 68% of the people who voted in our poll still think the Flying Dutchman’s was better.

You can’t really argue with them…

DB10 – EVERY TIME. Alexis is brilliant. Dennis is Dennis!

Alex is hat-trick stunning. But DB10s three goals won 1st, 2nd & 3rd place in MOTD goal of the month. Nuff said.

What do you think? Bergkamp? Alexis? Or someone else entirely? Tweeted us @DailyCannon.
