Breaking!!! Arsenal Fans Stage Arsene Wenger Protest… ‘Stubborn, Stale, Clueless’

Disgruntled supporters took the streets around Emirates Stadium to call on the club to avoid offering the Frenchman an extension to his contract

Arsenal supporters have staged a protest ahead of a Champions League clash with Bayern Munich calling for the end to Arsene Wenger’s tenure at the club.

The Frenchman inherited the Gunners reins in 1996 and is the most successful manager in the club’s history.

He has overseen Premier League title triumphs and domestic cup successes, but a disgruntled fan base have grown disillusioned with events in recent years.

Calls of “we want our Arsenal back” could be heard on Tuesday evening as those eager to see change embraced in north London took to the streets.

Wenger was also accused of “killing our club”, while signs and banners sported slogans such as “no new contract” and “stubborn, stale, clueless” were paraded.

Fans aired their displeasure before heading to Emirates Stadium for a meeting with Bayern that many consider to be encapsulating their demise.

Arsenal head into the last 16 encounter 5-1 down from the first leg in Germany, with another frustrating exit from Europe now on the cards.

The Gunners have also slipped to fifth in the Premier League table, adding further weight to those urging the board not to hand Wenger an extension to a contract due to expire in the summer.

Zlatan Ibrahimovic receives three-match ban will miss chelsea clash on monday

The Swede aimed an elbow at Tyrone Mings during Manchester United’s 1-1 draw with Bournemouth and has subsequently been hit with a suspension

The Football Association has confirmed that Manchester United’s Zlatan Ibrahimovic has accepted a three-match ban for his elbow on Tyrone Mings.

The prolific attacker will consequently miss the FA Cup quarter-final at Chelsea on Monday, followed by the Premier League matches against Middlesbrough and West Brom.

He is due to return in the home game with Everton on April 4 but remains eligible for United’s Europa League clashes with Rostov.

The news will come as a major blow to manager Jose Mourinho, with Ibrahimovic having scored 26 goals in all competitions thus far this season.

Mings, meanwhile, has also been charged with violent conduct, following an alleged stamp on Ibrahimovic, but he is yet to be told how long he will be banned for.

United are currently sixth in the Premier League table, three points behind fourth-placed Manchester City.

Arsene Wenger will make a late decision on Alexis Sanchez after he was dropped for Saturday’s 3-1 defeat at Liverpool

Arsene Wenger insists he has not decided whether to recall Alexis Sanchez for Arsenal’s Champions League round-of-16 second-leg meeting with Bayern Munich.

The Chile forward was dropped for Saturday’s 3-1 defeat at Liverpool with Wenger insisting it was a tactical decision and the player had not been involved in a training ground argument leading into the game.

Arsenal are 5-1 down in the tie and are definitely without Mesut Ozil through illness, while Santi Cazorla (Achilles) and Mohamed Elneny (ankle) also miss out.

Arsenal captain Per Mertesacker also spoke to the media and provided an insight on the current mood of the changing room.

“It’s a little bit tense [in the squad] but that is normal when you have a stretch like this.

“We need our fans to back us up. We’ve done some wrong in previous games. The spirit is a bit tense but that’s normal.”

POSSIBLE LINE-UPS

Arsenal starting XI: Ospina, Bellerin, Mustafi, Koscielny, Monreal; Xhaka, Coquelin; Walcott, Iwobi, Welbeck; Sanchez

Bayern starting XI: Neuer, Rafinha, Martinez, Hummels, Alaba; Alonso, Vidal; Robben, Thiago, Ribery; Lewandowski

Antonio Conte’s side put in a professional performance in a capital derby at the London Stadium to cement their standing at the Premier League summit

Eden Hazard and Diego Costa helped Chelsea to restore their 10-point lead at the top of the Premier League with a 2-1 victory over West Ham.

A capital derby at the London Stadium produced a bright opening, with the hosts posing plenty of  problems for the table-topping Blues.

It was, however, to be the kind of flowing counter that has become Chelsea’s trademark this season which allowed them to open the scoring.

Hazard exchanged passes with Pedro to spring in behind and the Belgian made no mistake as he calmly rounded Darren Randolph and rolled into the back of the net.

Costa then doubled that advantage five minutes into the second half as he bundled home his 17th league goal of the season from a corner.

Manuel Lanzini pulled one back in stoppage-time to set up a nervy finish for the visitors, but they were able to leave with all three points.

Barcelona 5 – 0 Celta [La Liga] Highlights 2016/17 | DOWNLOAD VIDEO

The Argentine contributed two goals and two assists as the Catalans ran riot ahead of their make or break Champions League tie against PSG. 

Lionel Messi was at his sublime best as he scored two and inspired three more goals in Barcelona’s 5-0 hammering of Celta Vigo, their first match since head coach Luis Enrique announced his plans to leave at the end of the season.

Luis Enrique confirmed his imminent departure after Wednesday’s 6-1 dismantling of Sporting Gijon and that certainly did not appear to distract his men in any way as talisman Messi led from the front in a sensational display to see Barca retain their place at LaLiga’s summit, a point ahead of Real Madrid who have a game in hand.

Barca played the first half with real freedom and carved Celta open several times before eventually breaking the deadlock through Messi, who applied a typically clinical finish after a fine run.

The Argentina international ran the show and caused havoc in his free role, setting Neymar up for Barca’s delightful second five minutes before the interval.

Messi then unlocked the Celta defence in the lead up to Ivan Rakitic’s controversial third, before then laying the ball on a plate for Samuel Umtiti’s first Barca goal.

The inspirational forward then doubled his personal tally with what was Barca’s third goal in seven minutes, securing another emphatic victory ahead their attempt at a Champions League last-16 rescue job when they host Paris Saint-Germain at Camp Nou with the Ligue 1 champions leading 4-0 from the first leg.
