Arsenal legend Perry Groves thinks Manchester United will "not be good enough next season" and has urged Unai Emery's side to take advantage.

With Chelsea stepping into the unknown under Frank Lampard, Groves thinks it might be Arsenal's time to end their three-year hiatus from the Champions League.

He told talkSPORT: "I know we're battling to be best of the rest again.

"Realistically, that's fourth.

"Manchester United are in a bit of turmoil – Solskjaer is not going to be good enough.

"Chelsea are in a little bit of turmoil; they can't sign any players, they've got Frank Lampard, and they've got young players coming in.

"So fourth place is really going to be competitive and I want us to be in a position to be able to compete.

"I know it shows how far we've dropped, competing for fourth place – but we've got to be realistic.

"And if they sign these younger players, hungry and with the right attitude, then as an Arsenal fan at the end of the transfer window I'll think, 'OK, we're looking to go forward'."
