Cesc Fabregas has risked the wrath of Arsene Wenger with a damning assessment of Arsenal's six-year trophy drought.
As the Gunners prepare for Wednesday's derby at Tottenham, Fabregas dared to question his manager's grand project and called on the club's new owners to choose between nurturing talent or winning silverware.
He also discussed his own future, insisting he will never leave for another English team, but left the door open for a return to his native Barcelona if Arsenal fail to convince him they are going in the right direction.
Fabregas says Spanish clubs would not have been as patient as Arsenal have with Wenger
Fabregas said: 'If you went to Spain and said to Pep Guardiola (the Barca manager), Jose Mourinho (Real Madrid) or Unai Emery (Valencia) they would have three years without a trophy, it would be obvious they would not continue.
'But here it is different, the manager is intelligent and the club value different things: that the team is always in the Champions League, that we compete until the end, that we have young players, economic stability.
Arsene Wenger is facing increasing pressure to deliver trophies as Arsenal stand on the brink of making it six years without silverware.
After dropping another two points against Liverpool, Wenger's title bid is almost over.
But should he still be in charge next season? TELL US WHAT YOU THINK 'But I imagine there will be a moment when you have to decide: do you win things or not?'
Fabregas swapped the Nou Camp for north London in 2003 just as Wenger's 'Invincibles' were embarking on an unbeaten Barclays Premier League campaign.
He won the FA Cup in 2005 and reached the Champions League final a year later but the 2-1 defeat by Barcelona in Paris proved the first of many disappointments.
'From 2007 on I started to say, "We don't win but we play very well",' said
Fabregas.
'After that, you realise it doesn't work. You enjoy it during a part of the season, like this year, when we were in four different competitions.
'And you say, "Here, I have it all". But then you cannot make the final step and it is here where a decision has to be made: to go out to win or to develop players.'
Fabregas reflects on how Wenger dismantled the 2004 champions, leaving the 23-year-old and Robin van Persie to inherit the responsibilities normally shouldered by more senior players.
'Without a doubt, the Invincibles team is the best I have ever played in,' said Fabregas, who is about to complete his third season as captain.
'You felt that if you had a bad game, nothing happened because your team-mates helped you. Those players made you better. Now a lot has changed and I am the man everyone looks to. I don't like to say it but it is true.
'If I play badly, I take the responsibility and the pressure of the supporters.
It is not something I am used to but I am captain, so it is reality. Only me and Van Persie remain of that generation, and we have a lot of responsibility.'
'The day I leave Arsenal it will be with my head, not just because...' said Fabregas.
'You have to wait for the right moment. Who says you will play in your new team? Or that you will develop? Here I have a lot of luck on a personal level - despite not winning a lot - and I am doing very well.
'I speak with (Barcelona captain) Carles Puyol, who says that he didn't win a thing until he was 26. Puyol, who has won everything there is to win! Patience and hard work are the most important things in life.
'If one day I leave Arsenal, it will never be to sign for another English club. That is for certain.'
