Unai Emery could be running out of time as Arsenal manager, according to former Gunners midfielder Stewart Robson.
The Spaniard arrived at the Emirates last summer after Arsene Wenger’s 22-year reign in north London came to an end.
Despite guiding the club to the Europa League final, Arsenal were erratic domestically and Emery failed to secure Champions League football.
This meant the club’s summer transfer balance took a huge hit, with moves for William Saliba and Wilfried Zaha in serious danger of collapsing.
So far only young Brazilian striker Gabriel Martinelli has been signed in the transfer market.
And Robson believes another poor season in north London could spell the end of Emery’s reign.
“It was a disappointing campaign,” Robson told ESPN FC.
“They could have got in the top four last year, but they fell away at the end. They could have won the Europa League but they didn’t and fell away against Chelsea.
“It needed restructuring, they lost a lot of players like [Aaron] Ramsey, Petr Cech has gone which I think is probably a good thing now.
“I think there’s a whole list of players that have left Arsenal. They’ve brought one player in, Martinelli from Brazil. They need a lot of new players, they need a new philosophy.
“I think Unai Emery may be running out of time.
David Seaman complains about Arsenal's lack of ambition
“He hasn’t got the bloke they brought in to do the transfers [Sven Mislintat], he’s left, so he obviously didn’t get on with Unai Emery. Unai Emery needs a good start to the season, If he doesn’t get it, he is going to be under massive pressure.
“If he doesn’t buy players and doesn’t seem to get the team in the right shape for the start of the season, Arsenal are going to struggle.”
