Even the commentators John Michael Higgins and Elizabeth Banks (always on the side - lines, yet always delivering that perfect joke just when you need it), feel like
desperate shadows of their former selves, clinging to their sarcastic insults, as if it is all they've got left of the glory days of acapella singing.
Arsenal too have a scary line - up with Ozil, Sanchez and Lacazette, but with Alexis looking like a
shadow of his
former self I am secretly hoping that Wenger is brave enough to leave him on the bench, but I doubt it, as the boss is
desperate for his gamble
of keeping the Chilean at the club will come good at some point.
