5 reasons why Arsenal will beat Manchester United on Saturday

In-form forwards

In Alexis Sanchez, Theo Walcott, and Mesut Ozil, Wenger possesses some of the most in-form attacking players in the division.

Chilean international Sanchez has scored eight goals for the Gunners this season, and has laid on five assists in all competitions from a more advanced role.

As we’ve said before, Sanchez playing further forward has brought the best out of Walcott and Ozil, who between them have netted 15 times already this time around.

And, given that they scored 17 between them in the entirety of last season, Wenger seems to have stumbled upon something brilliant.

With Ozil in the number ten role, and the likes of Walcott, Sanchez, and Alex Iwobi making quick and agile runs in front of him, he is in his element.

A makeshift Manchester United defence is going to find it tough stopping that front four on Saturday.
