Nigel Winterburn believes Arsenal will be in full-blown crisis if they fail to beat Tottenham this weekend.
The Gunners are 11 points behind Premier League leaders Manchester United, having won just two of their last seven games.
And Winterburn has warned nothing less than a victory will do on Saturday when Spurs make the short trip across north London.
He told the Alan Brazil Sports Breakfast: “I thought this season that Arsenal would be stronger than last season, even though they lost Robin Van Persie. I liked the togetherness of the squad.
“My one slight worry was where would they replace all those goals. They would need [Olivier] Giroud to start scoring straight away and would also need the midfield players around him to possibly get into double figures. And it just hasn’t happened like that.
“Form a promising start, it’s now really turning into a bit of a crisis already. They really need a positive result [against Tottenham] and a positive result means a win.”
