Martin Keown asks for summer signings at Arsenal

Gunners need a major squad overhaul in the summer.

The North London club managed to release a number of fringe players from the squad such as Mesut Ozil, Sokratis, Shkodran Mustafi and Sead Kolasinac in January.

Ex-Gunner Martin Keown believes that more changes needed to be made at the Emirates in the summer.

“It’s a calamity, the goal they concede trying to play out from the back. It’s about making the right decisions, the manager said he’s far from happy about the team’s performance and said stop giving silly goals away and this was another one,” Keown told BT Sport.

“This ball should be launched by the goalkeeper. Okay, Granit gives it away and he shouldn’t, it is his mistake. But don’t give it to him.

“He had a list didn’t he, he said they’re far, far away from the team he wants. He said, ‘I need more quality’, so I think better players.

“If I looked at that today, there’s maybe four or five in there that are going to be forming the core but the rest maybe need to be changed.

“He talked about better decision-making, be more efficient in your play, did they make good decisions today in key moments? Maybe not. In front of goal, they could’ve been better.

“He knows what the problems are, he’s now got to find the solutions and find the necessary players to put Arsenal back on the map because they’re halfway down the table and it’s simply not good enough at the moment.”
