Arsenal caretaker manager Freddie Ljungberg has told

 the club’s board they ‘must make a decision’ on their 

next appointment soon as the team continue to drift 

deeper into crisis.

The Swede had just watched his team lose meekly 3-

0 at home against Manchester City, leaving him with

 just one win from his five games in charge.

"I've said to them [the board] they need to make a 

decision,” Ljungberg told Sky Sports . “We are here to

 help and the staff are trying to chip in but a decision

 has to be made so we can have the same resources 

as other clubs.

“When I say that they say I have to wait and see.”

The champions put Arsenal to the sword early at the

 Emirates, Kevin de Bruyne scoring twice and setting

 up a goal for Raheem Sterling as the hosts lost for 

the fifth time in the league this season.

"It shows the quality Manchester City have in their 

side,” said Ljungberg. “Kevin de Bruyne showed his

 quality. We had worked on our structure and we had

 five against two but they still managed to score.

"They are the champions. I was proud of our boys.

 When you look at the age of the side that finished it

 was not an old side.

"I felt we kept the ball OK and played well. But we 

couldn't get that final spark and when you are 2-0 and

 3-0 down early it takes the edge off.

"The players showed spirit but it is hard to play at 3-0

 down.

"If you look you see the players and price tags they 

put in from the bench, we have young kids who we 

put on. There is a gulf but I am still proud of the 

boys."
