Arsenal star Alexis Sanchez claims he is just as good as Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo
Chilean forward says he does not 'feel inferior' to the world's greatest
ARSENAL have a forward just as good as Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo in Alexis Sanchez… At least according to the bold Chilean.
Sanchez has been a big hit at the Emirates Stadium since his arrival from Barcelona in 2014.
Despite his threat in attack, Gunners fans have been desperate for boss Arsene Wenger to bring in a big name striker to help them mount a title challenge.
But the South American has bravely claimed that Wenger already possesses a man who is equally as good as the planet’s two best players Messi and Ronaldo… Himself.
Sanchez told : “I have reached a level where I can compete with great players.
“I do not feel inferior to anybody. I liken [my qualities] to Messi and Ronaldo. I have the same abilities as them.”
Sanchez was a team-mate of Messi at the Nou Camp before departing for the Premier League in search of regular football at Arsenal.
He has scored 30 goals in 68 games for the Gunners.
