Former Arsenal midfielder Emmanuel Frimpong has slammed Mikel Arteta's squad.

Frimpong claims it is the worst squad seen in the history of the club.

He told PlayOJO: “Yes. No doubt about it. The league table says it all. I can't remember the last time an Arsenal team was in 15th at this stage of the season.

“The current situation is very very bad for everyone involved with Arsenal.

"I feel like this squad is probably the worst squad in a very long time."

Frimpong believes Granit Xhaka is just one of many Arsenal players who are not good enough for the club.

He said: “With Xhaka, I don't know if he is a defensive midfielder or an attacker, I really don't know his position.

“Defensively, I think he's far too slow and offensively, I don't know if he can see a pass. All I know is players like Xhaka, and I don't mean any disrespect, but are they great players?

“Are they players to carry Arsenal to the next level? In my honest opinion, I think the answer is no."
