Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain: 'Alexis Sanchez is like a Duracell battery'

Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain says that his Arsenal teammate Alexis Sanchez "never stops and never gives in" following the club's victory over Stoke City.

Arsenal midfielder Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain has paid tribute to his teammate Alexis Sanchez for the effort that he puts into every match.

The Chilean has been inspirational for the Gunners since his move from Barcelona in the summer and he took his tally to 18 goals for the club in their 3-0 win over Stoke City at the weekend.

"He loves it. He absolutely loves it. He's like a Duracell battery. He never stops and never gives in," The Mirror quotes Oxlade-Chamberlain as saying.

"Whether it's a cup competition or times where it's maybe a chance for a rest, he's the first one to say he wants to play. He wants to be a part of it.

"I'm sure if the boss wants to rest him, he'd respect it, but his attitude and the way he approaches training you wouldn't think he's tired. The way he's playing you wouldn't take him out either."

Sanchez is the fourth top scorer in the Premier League with 12 strikes, while he has also set up seven goals this season.
