Arsenal hero Nigel Winterburn wants to see Cesc Fabregas sold to Barcelona this summer.
Fabregas has hinted he has finally lost patience with the lack of success at The Emirates and his boyhood idols Barca are waiting in the wings with a fresh £40million bid.
"Jack Wilshere has been nothing short of sensational this season but when he plays together with Cesc Fabregas and you also have Theo Walcott and Samir Nasri in your starting eleven, you are going to struggle to win the midfield battle," Winterburn told the Daily Star Sunday.
"Something is not right. The balance of the side is just too attacking and that is because Arsenal's midfield is technically fantastic but defensively weak.
"Arsene Wenger does not need to change everything but one big question mark hangs over Fabregas. His comments last week, whatever he really said, smacked of frustration and we all know Barcelona will come calling again this summer.
"Nobody at the club will admit it but if Arsenal get the right offer I feel there is every chance he will go this time. But if he does, it may not be the disaster everyone thinks it will be.
"Fabregas is a world-class player, one of the best - but no player has ever been bigger than the club.
"Look at Manchester United, they lost Cristiano Ronaldo - who was scoring 50 goals a season - and they carried on. Arsenal are the same and it may even help balance up that midfield."
