Former Arsenal defender William Gallas has criticised the Gunners due to their inconsistency this season under Mikel Arteta.
The Gunners come off the back of a 5-2 win against West Ham and go into Wednesday night’s game against Manchester United looking for their fourth win in a row in all competitions.

Arsenal sit nine points behind league leaders Liverpool who recently beat champions Manchester City 2-0 at Anfield.
However, William Gallas says that it can be difficult to watch Arsenal at times as they aim to win their first league title since the 2003/04 season.
He told Genting Casino: “The problem with Arsenal… it’s sometimes very difficult to watch because, sometimes they can put in a big performance.
“Arsenal are playing Manchester United next. That is a different thing because it’s a big game. We know when it’s a big game, Arsenal is always ready, but I want to see how they are after Man Utd. I want to see them go to Fulham and win.”
“I’m not worried about when Arsenal play the big clubs, they just need to stop dropping points to the smaller ones.”
Arsenal welcome Manchester United to the Emirates
Mikel Arteta‘s side welcome United to the Emirates Stadium on Wednesday night as they hope to beat Ruben Amorim in his first trip to Arsenal as the Red Devils’ manager.
Gallas believes that the Gunners are very far ahead of United in terms of progress and quality and responded when asked how many Man United players that he would take in the Arsenal starting XI.
“I wouldn’t take anybody.” He said, “Why? No, I wouldn’t take a single Manchester United player and put them in the Arsenal team because, at the moment, the Arsenal players are better than the Manchester United players, so I won’t pick anyone.”
