The big problem with Sanchez is his inconsistency, and the spectrum of it. It's not that he's good in some games and not so good in others, it's that he's very good in some games and absolutely appalling in others, such as Arsenal and QPR away.There's obviously a very capable player in there though, so it'll be a test of Sherwood and Wilkins' coaching ability to get the best out of him.
This not bene posted yet? Worth reading.In praise of Ashley Westwoodhttp://football.chrisnee.co.uk/2015/08/aston-villas-ashley-westwood-rewarded.html
Pretty similar stats for passing. Both at 83-84% success on average.
Statistics are like mini-skirts. What they reveal is suggestive, but what they conceal is vital.

EtcThat doesn't show where the passes were made, where the recipient of the pass was on the pitch, were the passes backwards, sideways, or going forward. Was the pass made at a stretch trying to clear up a wayward pass to either Sanchez or Westwood, was the pass a decent one but intercepted because the other player was on his heels etc etc I very rarely look at the stats because they can never show the true picture.
