Liverpool legend Dietmar Hamann has shared his thoughts on Arsenal's struggles this season while calling out one of the team's underperformers.

Former Liverpool midfielder Dietmar Hamann has expressed his doubts about Raheem Sterling's ability to perform at a high level for Arsenal.

Sterling, who joined the Gunners on loan from Chelsea in the summer, has struggled to make an impact at the Emirates Stadium.

Hamann believes that the 29-year-old England international has lost his pace and tenacity, which were key factors in his success at Liverpool and Manchester City.

"I hope we see the Raheem Sterling we saw at Liverpool and Manchester City, but I don't think we will see him reach those levels at Arsenal," Hamann told Flashscore.

"He is 29 years old now, he's losing his pace and tenacity. If you look at his form, he's gone backwards since leaving Manchester City. I doubt he'll improve again."

Hamann's comments suggest that Sterling's best days may be behind him, and if things fail to work out at Arsenal, it is unlikely he will be afforded a chance at a top club next season.
