Ian Wright takes aim at 'very poor' Eddie Nketiah in Arsenal's FA Cup loss to Nottingham Forest as the Gunners icon criticises his movement and urges the forward to be 'sharper' after missing chance to put the team ahead

Former Arsenal striker Ian Wright has slammed the performance of Eddie Nketiah during the team's woeful FA Cup exit against Nottingham Forest, calling the forward's movement 'very poor'.

Mikel Arteta's men were dumped out in the third round of the cup by their Championship opponents, with the Gunners failing to show any sparkle up front, with Nketiah tasked with leading the line.

But 22-year-old wasn't able to inspire Arsenal and missed a handful of good chances to put them ahead - including a header that went wide from Bukayo Saka's cross.
