Arsenal stalwart defends Sanchez and Ozil, lifts lid on commitment

Much has been said about Arsenal pair Alexis Sanchez and Mesut Ozil so far this season, with the pair set to see their contracts expire next summer.

With no suggestion that they’re on the cusp of signing new deals, Arsenal are effectively running the risk of losing them for nothing unless they opt to cash in during the January transfer window and sell them.

The pair have come under fire over the international break, with former Arsenal defender Lee Dixon insisting that they wouldn’t have lasted in the dressing room at the club when he was still playing, as noted by talkSPORT.

However, Petr Cech has defended his teammates from criticism, particularly when it comes to their attitude and application in training which isn’t seen by supporters or the old guard.
