Former Arsenal striker Kevin Campbell has urged Arsene Wenger to spend big in the January transfer window.
The Gunners boss has come in for fierce criticism from sections of the club's support of late, particularly after their 3-2 defeat away to Stoke City on Saturday.
Campbell feels that the Frenchman can withstand the pressure and retain his job at the Emirates, but the ex-Everton forward thinks that the Gunners need to strengthen their squad significantly in the January transfer window.
He told talkSPORT: "Arsene can ride out the storm. He's very experienced and I know the players are rooting for him, but he has to address these problems. You never know which Arsenal will show up. One week they're awful, the next they're brilliant. They need some consistency.
"If Wenger is serious [about getting back to the top] he will go out and get who he needs in January. No messing around, go and get them, because Arsenal need them. They've needed it for years and it's showing up [in their results], so go out and get them.
"Qualifying for the Champions League is not winning a trophy, and the fans want trophies. So unless you're putting silverware on the sideboard you're there to be shot at. And when the weakness of the team never gets addressed, and you expect the results to change, they never do."
The Gunners return to domestic action when they host Newcastle United on Saturday.
