David Seaman believes the club has a problem with consistency.
Arsenal finished eighth last season and wouldn’t participate in European football for the first time in 25 years.
Mikel Arteta who became the club’s manager in 2019 is being forced to do a task with the players the previous managers before him signed.
Arsenal legend David Seaman believes the club lacks consistency and needs a squad overhaul in the summer.
‘When you look at last season, finishing eighth, it’s very disappointing,’ Seaman says via Mail Sport.
‘It’s something that needs to be changed. I feel a little bit sorry for (Mikel) Arteta because he’s not got his own team yet, or his own squad.
‘He’s inherited players from previous managers. But he’s got to coach those around him to get the best out of them. We saw with winning the FA Cup and then the Community Shield, I would call those bonuses, because that season wasn’t very good either. It’s the consistency that’s the problem.
‘All of a sudden we beat Liverpool and Chelsea, then we lost to lower teams. That’s his biggest problem. Do we need players? Yes we do. I still feel that the spine of the team isn’t strong enough.
‘They need a good defender and midfield player. We need a more consistent attacking player. In (Pierre-Emerick) Aubameyang, we do have a quality player. Last season, with all the different problems that he had, he wasn’t consistent enough. But you know the quality he’s got, so you don’t really change that.
‘(Thomas) Partey in midfield has done well, I like what I see with him. I want to see a more consistent season from him and hopefully that’s going to happen next year.’
