Hector Bellerin has blamed Arsenal’s attacking players for their lack of creativity after they were held to a goalless draw by West Ham earlier this week.

Arsene Wenger’s side are without a win in three Premier League games and have slipped to seventh in the table, 19 points behind leaders Manchester City.

Alexis Sanchez has been criticised for his recent form, while Mesut Ozil has also struggled since the 3-1 defeat at home to Manchester United on December 2.

And Bellerin admits Arsenal’s attackers are letting the team down.

‘It’s difficult because we are dominating the games, we have opportunities, we have the ball possession. But we don’t have the effectiveness in front of the goal, we lack a little creativity,’ the Spain international said in an interview with ESPN Brasil.

‘And that’s what makes our game something that people like to see, football with a lot of spectacle, with a lot of first touch, with a lot of speed.

‘I don’t know, we lack this, especially in the last quarter of the pitch.

‘Defensively we are good at the back, we are conceding few goals, but we need to improve at the front.

‘We have to keep working and play the next match with a little more audacity.’
