GET THE REDDIES OUT

Jamie Redknapp has urged Arsenal to splash the cash following their disappointing defeat away at Aston Villa.

He told Sky Sports: "They are way off the top four. One issue he has to deal with is Mesut Ozil, he'll be off this summer I'm sure.

"He is on an awful lot of money, if you feel the player isn't right then you have to bite the bullet and let them go.

"Auba (Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang) you need to get him a new contract, don't want to get in another situation.

"Players like him are hard to find. I like Arteta. I look at that Arsenal back line, they will make mistakes. They need to throw money at the problem.

"He wants to play with better players, he will want to know who is coming in, yeah he gets on with his mate (Alexandre) Lacazette and he speaks highly of (Bukayo) Saka, he is ambitious and he wants to look at the players coming in.

"He is coming to the twilight of his career, he'll be saying right I want to win something.

"Another problem they have got is (Dani) Ceballos, I really like him, will they get him back? Credit Arteta, when he first came he looked silky. If you lose him and Auba then you have problems."
