FUMING Piers Morgan has questioned Arsenal’s new system under Mikel Arteta.

And he also wants one new signing dropped from the starting XI immediately.

Piers Morgan reckons Mikel Arteta must ditch his new tactics and return to last season’s system

Arsenal suffered their first defeat of the year on Saturday when they drew 2-2 with Fulham.

Joao Palhinha’s goal in the 87th minute gave the Cottagers a point.

After making a mistake just one minute into the game, Arsenal would feel themselves fortunate to have won anything at all.

They lost a lot of chances and left themselves open to numerous Fulham counterattacks.

Morgan also believes that Arteta’s altered shape is to blame.

Arteta used 3 different lineups for 3 games from the beginning of the season

The Spaniard almost won last season’s Premier League title with a 4-2-3-1.

But he is now employing a shape similar to Man City’s, creating a system akin to a 3-2-4-1.

Star men like Gabriel Magalhaes can no longer get in the side.

Morgan wants to see new signing Kai Havertz axed from the starting XI

And Morgan has demanded Arteta revert back to basics, starting with the exclusion of £65million German forward Kai Havertz.

He was snapped up by Arsenal from Chelsea over the summer.

But Havertz is yet to score or assist in three games for his new club.

He missed a sitter against Fulham and was also derided for failing to get on the end of a inch-perfect cross from Bukayo Saka.

Talk TV’s Morgan now feels the time is right to drop Havertz and bring Gabriel back into the fold.

He tweeted: “I don’t get Arteta changing our whole system to accommodate Havertz. Just isn’t working.

“Put Gabriel back in next to Saliba, move White to right back, and stick Partey in the middle where he belongs.

“And take off Havertz.”

Arsenal fans appeared to agree with Morgan.

One said: “I like Havertz and feel there’s loads to come but don’t understand why we’ve moved away from a system that was so successful.”

Another declared: “Arteta wants to justify the fee, that’s why he’s on the pitch, he’s made no impact in the game.”

One noted: “It’s not working, he’s trying too many experiments.”

Another added: “Arteta shuffled everything around as if we had a shocker last season.”
