Arsenal legend Tony Adams has slammed the current state of the club.
Adams has branded club chiefs Edu and Raul Sanllehi "out of their depth" and accused them of "blowing up" the carefully crafted recruitment network.
He told TalkSport: "My fundamental issue is with recruitment. I think the club is going through such a recruitment issue at the moment – it's not relying on agents.
"That's not the way to go; It's not arsenal DNA I'm afraid. I don't like it. I've got to say it publicly.
"It took Steve Rowley 40 years to build that scouting network; it did brilliantly, got the best players from around the world. And it's just been blown up."
Adams continued: "Edu, I love him, he's a beautiful man, it's not personal, but he has no experience of building European squads.
"Even Raul Sanllehi, came from Barcelona, all the money in the world, it don't look like he's going to get money.
"Those people are out of their depth, I'm sorry. They need to build a fantastic squad that challenges for the league and it hurts."
