Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta will have five more matches to prove he deserves to keep his job, after which those in charge at the Emirates Stadium will decide on his future. Arteta has always asked for more time and insists that he rebuilds a side that has completely lost its way since Arsene Wenger left in 2018, but both results and achievements remain far below the standard. A 2-0 defeat against both Brentford and Chelsea has seen Arsenal begin one of their worst starts of a season in history, and with a trip to the…
