If you do a search for #ssnhqsanchez on Twitter, you'll understand the power and enthusiasm of an Arsenal fan.

It initiated from one of Sky Sports News' (HQ) polls but it has since escalated to the point where even non-Gunners related topics are bombarded with Alexis Sanchez adulation. Sky even managed to have a laugh about it themselves on Christmas day. https://twitter.com/SkySportsNewsHQ/status/680474263476895744 Arsenal supporters are an internet powerhouse and they gobble up polls as a pre-breakfast snack. It was no surprise then to learn that the London club dominated the BBC's search for the best Premier League XI. Nacho Monreal made the cut along with four of his outfield team mates. What's more is that he was selected out of the best of the best in England to keep an eye on Lionel Messi in the challenge against the FIFA World XI. https://twitter.com/BBCSport/status/686831589117001728 Decent enough side, that. We can't, for the life of us, imagine how this Premier League XI (as voted by "thousands" of BBC readers) could compete with it. https://twitter.com/BBCSport/status/686966636113309696
