However, Winterburn has leaped to the defence of the manager, labelling the discourse surrounding Arteta’s future as inappropriate. Speaking via HFM X Arsenal, the 62-year-old made his feelings clear: "To me, it's not even something that I really even want to entertain because I think that's very disrespectful to Arteta. I think it's also disrespectful to the club to be talking about a manager that could present something to Arsenal that they haven't had for a long time."
