Roy Keane critical of 'soft' and 'mentally weak' Arsenal team after Champions League defeat
Former Man United captain Roy Keane has accused Arsenal of being "soft" and "mentally weak" following their Champions League defeat to Olympiacos.
The ITV Sport pundit also suggested Arsene Wenger's side lack "characters, leaders and winners", as another defeat left them with an uphill task of qualifying for Europe's knockout stages.
Tuesday's 3-2 reverse was Arsenal's second in two Champions League matches this season, and speaking on ITV's highlights show, ex-United skipper Keane said:
"Listen, they're soft. Arsenal are soft. They're weak. The goals they give away… you've got no chance of winning any big game if you defend like that.
"I think there's certainly a weakness to the group, they look like they lack characters, leaders and winners.
"I enjoy watching Arsenal, I think they're great to watch, particularly going forward. But part of football is, unfortunately, is defending. And mentally, they're weak."
