Arsenal forward Alexis Sanchez has the X-factor... after refusing to sell in the summer, Arsene Wenger should pick him to start against West Brom

I was surprised that Alexis Sanchez was left out by Arsene Wenger against Chelsea last week. After all Arsenal's stubbornness in refusing to sell the striker, why not use him?

But I don't think Wenger was trying to say there's no player bigger than the club by benching the Chilean. The manager maybe felt Sanchez wasn't up to speed. Still, I can't see him being left out against West Brom on Monday night, particularly with Danny Welbeck out.

If Arsenal want that X-factor in the final third then Sanchez is their man.
