Patrick Viera has told Mikel Arteta that Arsenal must build their team around "personality and competitiveness" after the Gunners suffered a damaging 3-0 defeat against Brighton on Sunday.
Julio Enciso, Denis Undav and Pervis Estupinan scored for the Seagulls as Arsenal's title bid took a massive dent, handing Manchester City the chance to win it next weekend. Pep Guardiola's side require one win from their remaining three matches and face Chelsea, Brighton and Brentford before the end of the season.
With the Gunners' title push all but over, focus may now be already on the summer transfer window as Arteta tries to bolster his squad ahead of the Champions League next season. Arsenal will return to Europe's elite club competition for the first time in six years and are set finish second in the Premier League.
