Edu says it is too early to judge the Gunners as he expects new signings to take time to gel with the existing players.
Arsenal were the big spenders in the just ended transfer window in Europe, having spent a mammoth £150million on new signings.
The Gunners secured the services of the likes of Ben White, Aaron Ramsdale, Martin Odegaard, Takehiro Tomiyasu, Sambi Lokonga and Nuno Tavares.
Mikel Arteta’s men sit rock bottom on the Premier League table with three defeats in their opening three games despite their summer spending spree.
Edu believes Arsenal are yet to play together and has urged fans to start judging Arteta’s side when the team start gelling.
“To be fair, we have had three games and I haven't seen the team playing together yet,” Edu told Sky Sports.
“So, I want to see the signings and I want to see the squad prepare.
“All three games we have played against Brentford, Chelsea and Manchester City, unfortunately we have had some difficult moments in terms of Covid and injuries.
“I want to see the team play together and then let's judge the team when they play together. Then, after that, no problem. Judge us then.
“I understand the situation we are in now is really tough. It's not an excuse but let's judge the team when they play together.”
