Former Arsenal midfielder Stewart Robson believes that all is not well between Gunners manager Arsene Wenger and assistant Steve Bould.

The North London side have experienced a slight dip in form in recent weeks in the form of a 1-0 defeat to Norwich City and a 2-0 loss to Schalke 04 in the Champions League yesterday.

"It looked more encouraging at the start of the season but it's been five to six years and the same thing's happened time and time again," Robson told talkSPORT.

"I hoped that [when Steve Bould was appointed] he would do more with the defence but I'm not sure whether he's being allowed to do that by Wenger. I think there might be a rift in the camp between those two from what I've heard."

Arsenal are currently ninth in the league table.
