Former Arsenal star Alexis Sanchez has sent a message of support to his former side after they beat West Ham United in the Premier League on Sunday. Goals from centre-back partnership Rob Holding and Gabriel Magalhaes were enough to see off the Hammers, who can no longer mathematically finish in the top four.
Tottenham Hotspur had won 3-1 win against Leicester City earlier in the day, meaning it was imperative for Arsenal to get all three points. As a result, they remain in fourth, two points ahead of their north London rivals and now just three behind west Londoners, Chelsea, who've been dragged back into the race after a poor performance at relegation battling Everton.
Pundits and former players have applauded the Gunners' resolute performance at the London Stadium, but surprisingly, Sanchez has also chipped in to send his congratulations. The Chilean left in unfortunate circumstances back in the January 2018 transfer window, as he signed for Manchester United in a deal that saw Henrikh Mkhitaryan move the other way.
