Arsenal manager, Mikel Arteta might have to dip back into the transfer market for different players that will plug the visible holes in his Arsenal team, Dennis Bergkamp has said.
Dennis recently revealed that Arteta is working on fixing the problems at Arsenal but he needs time and different footballers to make it happen.
According to him, he sees the team trying to play a possession game and he can notice massive improvement from what fans were formerly used to.
He added that the boys will just have to adjust to this new culture and put in the hours the same way he and his colleagues did under Wenger.
His words, “I watched Arteta’s first game in charge at home [a 2-1 defeat to Chelsea].
“In that game it was clear to see what his intentions were with the team. The front four would chase the ball and put pressure on the opponents, but the midfield stayed behind. There was a big hole.
“I don’t know if you remember the AC Milan of Arrigo Sacchi, with Marco van Basten, Ruud Gullit and Frank Rijkaard. In training, they’d have ropes between them, so the distance between the players was always similar on the pitch.
“That was fantastic in our team as well. There was always a connection. There were no holes.”
“He’s working on it, but it needs time and maybe different players.
“Slowly you can see them trying to play a possession game.
“Everyone on the ball has three options, triangles on the pitch. It’s much better than before.
“But it’s a different culture which will take time. You have to put the hours in, like how we did with Arsene [Wenger].”
