Arsenal have "lost their oxygen" and must make a change to take themselves to the next level, says Simon Jordan.
Manager Arsene Wenger signed a much talked-of new two-year contract with the club, and his side have started with one win and one defeat in the Premier League so far.
Former Crystal Palace chairman Jordan, speaking on The Debate, feels a change in manager in the next year or two will take Arsenal to the next level, just as Wenger did in the mid-90s.
Jordan said: "I do believe, with no Wenger bashing, because he's a fabulous manager, that everybody has their time.
"I feel that Arsenal Football Club has lost its oxygen, and that comes from the manager. I'm not one of those that is baiting for Wenger out.
"I feel that his performance with the media last season, I felt very sorry for him up until the point where he carried on the circus about his future, saying he had something to say, but 'I won't say it now.'
"I thought: 'When have you moved from being a football manager to a performer holding a circus together for the basis of the media?'
"I feel Arsenal have got to make a change, and I think they will, not this season, but that change will take them to the next level that Arsene Wenger took them from.
"That was from a dull, 'boring, boring Arsenal' to a fabulous football team. There needs to be a change at Arsenal."
Arsenal, who failed to reach the Champions League for the first time in 20 years, were drawn against BATE Borisov, Cologne and Red Star Belgrade in the Europa League group stages.
Danny Higginbotham believes Arsene Wenger has a decision to make as to whether he puts resources into the Europa League, or concentrates solely on the Premier League.
"When Manchester United got to a certain point, Mourinho favoured the Europa League. And they went straight to the group stages by winning it.
"From Arsene Wenger's point of view, I don't think you can treat the Europa League and Premier League with the same importance.
"So he has a decision to make: does he concentrate on the Europa League, which does have an impact on the Sunday, or does he put all his eggs in the Premier League basket?"
