Former Arsenal defender and BT Sport pundit Martin Keown doesn't think Mikel Arteta currently has enough experience in his side, which could hold the team back if it's not improved this summer.
After praising the Hale End model and the success of its products in recent seasons, Keown voiced his concerns about the lack of senior heads within the squad.
"I don’t believe there is a balance at the moment," he said. "I think that is the problem and Arsene Wenger told us that if you do not have 26/27 year-olds as an average age, you are never going to win things. Arsenal have been the youngest team in the Premier League this season but I think (Mohamed) Elneny coming in in midweek to give that experience and (Granit) Xhaka also, you have got to have that protection."
