Despite claiming a victory at home to Hull City on Saturday, Arsene Wenger continues to be under a huge amount of pressure, and his misery will be compounded following a report from The Sunday Times.
Arsenal snapped a two game losing skid but the defeats to Watford and then Chelsea evaporated their Premier League title chances.
And during their home encounter with Hull, thousands of fans staged a protest against the current regime by failing to attend the match.

Wenger's future has been subject to intense speculation with his contract coming up as managerial replacements get lined up.
And not only has he been scrutinised by his own fans, but also a former Arsenal player in Robin van Persie, well, via Rio Ferdinand.
(van Persie won the league title the following year he left Arsenal.)

Per the quotes distributed from the newspaper via 101 Great Goals, Ferdinand claims;
"He said too many of the current side 'go missing' and that Wenger's side 'seem to bounce from game to game, never changing or reacting to the different challenges, with no real focus on the long term goal."
Ferdinand also stated that van Persie told him the following after his move from Arsenal; "he said that they all found the mentality different once they had moved to a 'winning club'."
Brutal.
