Watch: Alexis stars and scores for Chile against Peru

You probably heard that Alexis Sanchez continued his great run of recent form for club and country by netting two against Peru during the week.

The Chilean, who is carrying a rotator muscle problem, was still used by his national team manager, much to the (assumed) annoyance of Arsene Wenger who told the media at his pre-Watford press conference “I cannot do a lot about it [him playing while injured].

“He came off as you have seen against Manchester United with a hip problem, a problem with the rotator muscle and he wanted to go.

“He played in the last two games and we have to see how he comes back but it is always a tricky situation Chile are trying to qualify for the World Cup and he is an important player for them but they will use him if they can.

“He is a guy that always wants to play so I knew that was always going to be a tricky situation.”
