Members of the first-team squad at Arsenal are reportedly unconvinced that the club can become Premier League title challengers under Unai Emery.
With the Gunners already six points adrift of the top four, Emery is allegedly under pressure to keep his job at the Emirates Stadium.
According to the Daily Mail, some players at the North London outfit have 'reservations' over whether the team can close the gap on the likes of Liverpool and Manchester City.
The report suggests that regardless of whether the Spaniard can oversee an upturn in results in the short term, a number of first-teamers feel that they are sometimes instructed to play too conservatively.
Having let slip leads in each of their last three matches, Arsenal have recorded just one win from five outings in all competitions.
Emery will allegedly be given up to a month to save his job.
