I'm just going to get this out the way early. The pun in the headline was totally intended.
It seems that being a world class footballer doesn't make up for the fact that Alexis Sanchez isn't allowed on any of the rides at Alton Towers. The diminutive striker has been Arsenal's stand out player this season but there is still something lacking in his life, height.
Just look at the measures Sanchez took to make a likeness of himself appear taller when walking down the tunnel in the Emirates before Arsenal's key clash against high-flying Southampton tonight.
Come one Alexis, you're one of the highest paid players in one of the best leagues in the world. Nobody cares that you have to sit on a booster seat when you eat at Michelin star restaurants.
