Manchester United legend Roy Keane has called Arsenal “soft” after the Wolves defeated them 2-1 on Sunday.
Keane believes that Arsenal are facing their worst start to the season since 1981 due to the fact that their current players “are not good enough.”
He also claims that Arsenal, who are 14th in the table after five losses in 10 league games, have no ‘fight’ in the 2020-2021 season.
Speaking after Arsenal’s loss to Wolves in sixth place, Keane said on Sky Sports: ‘I don’t think the players are good enough. I think there is some softness there.
“I think their cheerleaders were out when they did a decent performance against United. They’ve had a point since then, they lost the other two games.
I think they look soft. You probably lack confidence a bit.
‘I didn’t see that fight the manager was talking about. I didn’t see that determination to get the result.
‘You can have a bad night, but you still find a way to get that result, and right now, I don’t see it with this group of players.
I think they look a little soft.
Chelsea legend Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink agrees with Keane and says Arsenal lacks quality in their squad.
He said ‘it just isn’t. good enough ‘for a club of his caliber to have 14 points at that point in the season.
Hasselbaink said: ‘I think staffing is a big, big problem.
“When you are at Arsenal, there is an expectation that people will want and see, and at the moment they don’t understand it.
“That Arsenal believe as many as they have is not enough.
“Having 14 points is not enough. Then there are problems.
‘The [Mikel Arteta] Have you wanted to bring more players in the summer? Yes, but I don’t know if their funds were there or if the right players were available.
“They miss Thomas Partey, but they can’t be just one player.
“Today has been an easy team to play. It’s a problem.’
However, the match between two of the lowest-scoring teams in the Premier League seemed of little concern to Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta.
Arteta said he is not worried about his position despite losing a third game at Emirates Stadium.
He said: ‘It’s something that the day I decided to be a coach I knew that one day I would be fired or left the football club, but I don’t know when that is going to happen,’ he said.
“In this profession, I know it will happen, but I never worry about it.
“My only concern is getting the best out of the players and giving the best possible service to the club.”
The Wolves will look to build on their momentum against Liverpool next Sunday, while Arsenal will look to regain some dignity against Premier League leaders Spurs.
