Michael Thomas wants five new signings to happen in the summer.
Arsenal legend Michael Thomas believes the club could need as many as five signings in the summer.
Thomas is not blaming Arteta yet for Arsenal’s disappointing performance during the weekend but believes he should be allowed to purchase more of his own players into the squad.
“I don’t think Arsenal need to be thinking about a new manager just yet,” Thomas told CaughtOffside exclusively.
“A new manager will experience the same issues until they have their own team of players in place to produce what they want.
“I think Arteta needs to finish the season on a high with the Europa League and try and get more of his own players integrated into the team.
“If then he cannot get his group of players to perform then Arsenal as a club will have to decide where they go from there.
“I’d say a minimum of five signings are needed: a right-back, (Achraf Hakimi), left-back (Ryan Bertrand), central midfield (Yves Bissouma and Martin Odegaard), and a left winger.”
