Mikel Arteta has been told he could face the sack if Arsenal fail to finish in the top four this season after a second successive summer of heavy spending.
The Gunners have surpassed the £100million mark yet again thanks in large part to the acquisitions of former Manchester City duo Gabriel Jesus and Oleksandr Zinchenko. With that amount of money being forked out, expectations have inevitably raised and a 2-0 win at Crystal Palace in their Premier League opener has seen Arsenal touted by many as qualifiers for next season's Champions League.
Should they fail in that quest, Arteta will no doubt come in for serious questioning and potentially criticism according to former club captain William Gallas, who has lofty expectations for his old side this season.
