Townsend: Arsenal are in a mess
Former footballer Andy Townsend believes Arsenal are currently "in a mess".
Arsenal forward Alexis Sanchez remains at the club after he was linked with a move to Manchester City.
Townsend said: "They're probably the one club I look at the moment that are in...they're in a mess, I think.
"I genuinely think they're a bit all over the place.
"I think the whole situation with Arsene's (Wenger) personal contract scenario has had a big effect on a lot of their players."
Manchester City's bid to sign Arsenal forward Alexis Sanchez ended after the Gunners failed to secure a replacement.
