"The players haven’t turned up, even towards the end of last season," the 57-year-old said.

"I know Arteta was getting a lot of stick but the players weren’t turning up and I was like, ‘hang on, these guys are getting away with murder;’ because there’s not a lot being said about them and they’re not performing to their best."

“I went to the Chelsea game and I was like, ‘oh God they’re way ahead of us at the moment.”

Seaman continued by highlighting the magnitude of Arsenal clash with Norwich, showing how far the Gunners have fallen.

"This is where we are at the moment and it’s a massive game now," he said. "I’m glad it’s at home because if it was away it would be a really tough game, the pressure of the fans at the Emirates will tell.

"There will be some major pressure going on if Norwich do score first. They’ve got to turn up this weekend, it’s a massive game and I fear the worst if we get beaten because the fans will turn.

"They’re not happy with two seasons of finishing eighth, it’s nowhere near good enough."

"You want these young players to play without any pressure and without any fear," he said, before speaking on Saka. "I’m hoping that they don’t think that just because he's playing for England and he’s Arsenal’s main player that he can take the pressure on him to take Arsenal out of this situation.

"He’s just turned 20 and he still has a lot of developing to do so he should be able to develop without having the fear and pressure of carrying this Arsenal side to where they want to be.”
