„Arsenal“ forward Alexis Sanchez believes that the „gunners“ lack the hunger for victories, which is necessary for the club to add new titles to its trophy collection.
Arsene Wenger's team missed a great opportunity to catch up with the „Leicester City“ team and, after losing to „Swansea City“, is lagging behind the „foxes“ by three points. Last week, „Arsenal“ also lost to „Barcelona“ and „Manchester United“, and after these failures, the London club seriously risks ending the season without major trophies.
Before the upcoming important derby match against „Tottenham Hotspur“, the Chilean hinted that the team lacks a mentality of winners.
„I think we can win the „Premier“ league with the players we have. But we lack the hunger for victories. We need to step onto the field as if we were already winning 1-0. We lack self-belief that we can become champions. I remember last season's game against „Manchester United“. The players looked hungry for victories and titles, which showed on the field. We crushed them in the first 20 minutes and led 2-0. That day we were hungry and shining with self-confidence,“ said Sanchez.
This Saturday, „Arsenal“ will face the team in second place in the „Premier“ league, „Tottenham Hotspur“, who are ahead of the „gunners“ by three points.
