Former Arsenal defender Martin Keown wants the Gunners to sign Mauricio Pochettino.
“There’s no need to panic at Arsenal, we are getting close to panic by the way, because we’re not having the best of seasons,” he told the Daily Mail.
“But the powers that be at the top of the club should be seriously considering Pochettino.
“I have a lot of admiration for what he did at Tottenham, the way he nurtured those young players and he didn’t spend a great deal of money.”
Arsenal have a habit of spending less and getting someone like Poch could be perfect for their transfer strategy.
Keowen also was against the sacking of the manager in the first place. He added: “I would have stayed with Pochettino. I think he deserved that. I think it’s a hugely significant sacking. You’re going to have managers now looking over their shoulders.
“I know the poor record he has recently, but I still would have given him another chance. I don’t like the way Tottenham have done it.
“There will be a lot of chairmen looking at him now. Manchester United wanted him this time last year. I think Arsenal would have to be interested if they want to take a step forward.”
“He lost the dressing room and fell out of love with the game of football in his quest to be successful,” the former England international said. “He has to jettison that part of himself.”
