A group of influential Arsenal supporters' organisations, fanzines and blogs have joined forces to call for "better leadership" of the club and hit out at Stan Kroenke's "passive ownership".

A total of 16 signatories published a statement on Monday morning demanding change as the Gunners prepare for a third successive season without Champions League football.

Under a heading of '#WeCareDoYou', it criticised the imbalance of the Arsenal board, "soulless" atmosphere at the Emirates Stadium and a lack of transfer strategy.

"As Arsenal fans we have watched with frustration as the team's football performances have declined over the past decade," the statement began.

"When Stan Kroenke began buying Arsenal shares the club had just competed in a first Champions League final.

"Twelve years on, Arsenal are about to play in the Europa League for the third year running."
