Arsenal has become the subject of much ridicule, as the Gunners have so often let major trophies slip away at the last moment. This has raised questions about Mikel Arteta's future at the Emirates.
Details: Former Chelsea midfielder John Obi Mikel believes the Spaniard should be given a final opportunity to claim the Premier League or the Champions League title in the upcoming season. Otherwise, Arteta would be better off stepping aside.
Quote: "Is he the man who can take them to the next level? I think he has built a very, very good team. They're strong, they play well, the defense is solid, the midfield is good. I think he's put together a strong side, but is he the man to take them to the next level?
The next level is winning the Premier League and the Champions League—sometimes I think a fresh voice is needed. He has been there for five or six years now, and I would give him one more year. Give him next season, but if he doesn't succeed, I think it's better for him to simply walk away. That means he's not the man to get it done. Bring in someone new, someone fresh," Obi Mikel said in an interview with talkSPORT.
