Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger admits he needs to slash his squad numbers in the remaining weeks of the summer market.
When it was put to Wenger that he had 33 players in his first-team squad - though the Arsenal website puts the figure at 32 - following Sunday's Community shield penalty shootout win against Chelsea, the manager conceded there was work to be done in trimming it back.
"To be honest it is too high," Wenger said. "We will let some players go because too much competition for places is detrimental.
"Not enough competition for places is detrimental as well. I agree that 33 [sic] is too high."
