"Do I think he should go? I'd like him to go because I do not believe now he can motivate the players. It's for himself and for his own sanity.

"It's an absolute nightmare - where does he go from here? That team has not played for Wenger for years.

"Why can't we get the players to play for us? Wenger carries the can.”

On BBC Radio 5 Live last night, Wright also claimed the Gunners should sell contract rebel Alexis Sanchez to rivals Manchester City.

In the wake of their 4-0 defeat to Liverpool, he added: “I’d sell Sanchez. Why? He doesn’t want to be there.

“When you go through that list of everything that is going wrong, I’m gutted — it’s just an absolute shambles.”

"He was selfish staying on. Even the most optimistic fan, what are they thinking? Wenger was disrespectful to the supporters last season - he should have gone.
