Antonio Di Natalie says Alexis Sanchez is the more 'concrete' player

The 37-year-old told Arsenal's official website that the Chilean would narrowly pip the Brazil star as he was a more 'concrete' player.

He said: "They're both wonderful players, who play talismanic roles for top club sides.

"When you're talking about players at that level, it's always difficult to say who's better. If I was a coach, I'd love to have both of them in my team.

"But if I had to choose one, I'd choose Alexis: because he's a little more 'concrete' than the Brazilian."

Di Natale and Sanchez formed one of the best attacking forces in Serie A history in 2009, bagging 41 goals goals between them.
