Mikel Arteta is enduring a difficult time at Arsenal.
Many view that Mikel Arteta should be axed as Arsenal boss and former Gunners fan Darren Bent shares the same opinion.
The North London club are languishing 9th in the Premier League standings and will miss out on any European competition next season.
Graham Potter has impressed with Brighton in the last two seasons and could well be the successor to Mikel Arteta.
Bent told talkSPORT: “I think it is time for Mikel Arteta to move on.
“My patience is up with him. I think Arsenal need to go in a new direction and bring in somebody who can get the best out of that group of players because right now he is not doing that.
“I don’t think players are respecting him like they once did at the very start and I can only see it going one way.”
“I like Graham Potter. I like his philosophy of football,” Bent added.
“I know the name is not as attractive as people would like. They’d like a superstar name as a manager.
“But if you want a manager to come in, play attractive football, work with good players and play football in the right way then Graham Potter should be in with a shout.”
