Although Wenger insisted several times that Sanchez would not be sold, he confirmed that the forward would miss Friday's Premier League clash at home to Leicester besides a trip to Stoke the following weekend. They will have their brilliant moments again, as they have had for a long time.
Sanchez did not play against Chelsea in the Community Shield on Saturday, and is expected to miss the Gunners' first fixture of the EPL season, against Leicester City, too.
"Every season we tend to start the league not so well, and being a Friday night I think a night game might be better for us". It's going to be different for us this year but it's about the way we react, it's as simple as that.
After Arsenal's Wembley win on Sunday, Wenger admitted he was looking to trim his squad before the transfer window closes.
Alexis Sanchez is ready to accept Arsenal's hardline stance and see out the final year of his contract.
Guam Governor: There is no threat from North Korea
The American territory is a key military outpost and home to more than 6,000 United States service personnel. The governor of Guam said on Wednesday North Korea's warning of a possible missile strike on the U.S.
Wenger also said there was "nothing bad" about the injury sustained by club captain Per Mertesacker, who had to come off after being accidentally caught in the face by Gary Cahill's elbow.
Gunners new boy Sead Kolasinac cancelled out Victor Moses' earlier effort as the game finished 1-1 after 90 minutes, before Arsenal won the penalty shoot-out 4-1 under the new ABBA system. "I don't think I would have started him". You have players who are pumped up in the gym and players who are born strong - he is the second.
Upon his return to north London, however, the ex-Barcelona star picked up a cold that ruled him out of action for a few days before Sanchez took part in full training sessions.
In the recent past, Wenger, knowing the pressure that he is under, has chose to go for experience over young talent in the transfer market, but what made the Arsenal manager great was his ability to take uncut stones and turn them into the most precious gems in the world. And it's always a combination of talent and attitude.
From Manchester United's £75m signing Romelu Lukaku to Arsenal's club-record deal for Alexandre Lacazette, the league's top sides have splashed the cash to get some firepower into their team. "I believe he will be a very great player".
