Arsenal hero Nigel Winterburn feels the team's youngsters are carrying the team.
Winterburn, who made over 400 appearances for the club and won three league titles, reckons it's the older players who now need to step up.
"The youngsters have displayed the right level of performance," he told the Daily Star. “Others must reach their level, or the manager won't be happy and will rotate the squad.
"But the problem is that this Arsenal squad is not good enough to rotate.
“It's imperative to get the combination between youth and experience right. If you're good enough, age doesn't make a difference. So it's pleasing to see young players in the squad.
“The younger players play with no fear and with freedom, because they are not often criticised.
“I didn't judge Bukayo Saka's performance when he came on from the bench against Brentford, he didn't get a lot of game time and he's just come back from the Euros.
"However, I expect him back in the starting 11 against Chelsea. He was a bright spark last season, along with Kieran Tierney and Emile Smith Rowe, who we must keep fit.
“We need them to play with the energy to drive the other below-par players."
