Jamie Redknapp has labelled the weekend’s losing side as the worst Arsenal team he has seen. The Gunners succumbed to a 2-1 defeat at the hands of Bournemouth on Super Sunday this weekend, having led through a Hector Bellerin opening goal.
The Cherries win was their first over us since the Premier League was created, and Sky Sports pundit Jamie Redknapp has labelled our team as the worst he has seen.
“You can say it’s the youngest, but I’d probably say it’s the worst Arsenal team I have seen,” he said.
“If you look at the blue-chip players of the years gone by, the Henrys, the Bergkamps, there are no players that are going to get in the Hall of Fame in this side.
“It was very disappointing today.
“They didn’t do enough for me, all around the pitch.
“It was the same failings, a lack of desire to get back into the game.
“You could see at 1-1 it was inevitable, there were no characters out there, nobody pulling people into position.
“A hugely disappointing result and performance from Arsenal.”

The duo are linked with the exit door at present, with both of their contracts ending this summer currently, and it is worrying times if the team is failing without the pair in the side.
The Chilean is believed to be close to joining the Manchester United, while both Manchester City and Liverpool have also been credited with an interest,
Was our performance really as bad as Redknapp claims? Do we have serious worries should both exit the club this month? How many signings do we need to replace the two stars?
