Life is not swell at Arsenal right now.
The Gunners recovered for a 2-2 draw against Manchester City, but that didn’t stop a wave of abuse as they missed the chance to close on the Premier League top four.

The #WengerOut movement reached fever pitch, while tensions boiled over in the stands as ‘fans’ were spotted ‘fighting’ (use of quote marks as it was truly tragic).
On the pitch, it was regular fall guy Mesut Ozil who took the brunt of the stick:
Fair play to Ozil.
Instead of going missing, he’s doing his best to help City win here.

Not content with giving the ball away once – Ozil did it twice in the build up to that goal and then decided to have a rest. Woeful

Ozil looks out of breath, lost and all alone in the world.

(In the interest of balance, it’s worth noting that the German assisted Arsenal’s second goal for Shkodran Mustafi…)
The Gunners were also shamed as a collective:

While Arsene Wenger came in for his weekly dose of criticism – and from his favourite source, too:

Spare a thought for the normal Arsenal fans who are judged on the maddening antics of the others.
