Arsenal’s ‘toxic dressing room’ is adding to Mikel Arteta’s headache as the Gunners face their worst start since 1974-75.

Saturday's 2-1 loss at Goodison Park made it seven Premier League games without a win for Arteta's side, as the club linger around the relegation places heading towards Christmas.

As a result, it has been reported that several first-team players have become frustrated with Arteta's leadership and that he has ‘lost the dressing room’.
