Newcastle United legend Alan Shearer has questioned Arsenal striker Eddie Nketiah this weekend.

Shearer, who is now a pundit for Premier League Productions, spoke about whether the English forward is good enough to lead the line for the Gunners.

Nketiah was sub par in a tough 1-0 win for the Gunners against Everton on Sunday in the league.

“We will continue to have discussions to say 'is he elite? And the top-draw striker that Arsenal need to go to that next level?'" Shearer said on Premier League Productions when discussing Nketiah.

“We will keep on asking those questions because it's important that when he gets the opportunity like he has done, then he has to take those opportunities.

“I just thought there were two or three occasions against Everton, one being the disallowed goal. There were a couple in that second half where I was thinking 'come on. Get on the end of it and into the six-yard box and that little tap-in, like all great strikers do'. It was just a split second where he was slow.

“Until he does that, then those questions are still going to be asked."
