Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has been told to bring in "four or five" new recruits this summer in order to progress on the pitch.
The Gunners now have a lot to do in order to qualify for Europe this season and it has hit home just how much Arteta needs to improve his squad this summer.
One area Arteta will be keen to bolster is the centre of the park, with his two central players needing to be able to control the game in both halves if the Gunners are to be successful.
And former forward Kevin Campbell is hoping that his old side can add Thomas Partey and Adrien Rabiot to their ranks this summer.
"Arsenal need four or five players across the board," he told Gentingbet. "They need centre-halves, I can see them going for one or two players in that position.
"They also need central midfielders, and more energy across the midfield and either another striker or a wide player."
Before Campbell added: "I could see three players coming to Arsenal, dependent on recruitment and transfer budget – I’m not sure what’s going to happen and I’m not sure who Arteta is looking at.
"I could take Thomas Partey in midfield, from Atletico Madrid and Adrien Rabiot from Juventus.
"I’d love to see Kalidou Koulibaly at the back as Arsenal struggle with quick forwards and Koulibaly is quick and an excellent defender.
"That’s the position, especially after the north London derby, where we need someone who can cover ground pretty well."
