Oleksandr Zinchenko, the former Manchester City player who joined Arsenal this season, has sparked a strong reaction among Arsenal fans with his recent congratulatory message to his former club on their Champions League victory. While Manchester City's historic treble win undoubtedly merits celebration, Zinchenko's gesture has left some Gunners supporters fuming, highlighting the passion and loyalty of football fandom.
Following Manchester City's 1-0 triumph over Inter Milan in the Champions League final, securing their treble-winning status, Zinchenko took to Instagram to share City's post and expressed his congratulations with three clapping emojis. This action ignited anger and frustration among Arsenal supporters, who deemed it disrespectful.
On social media platforms, many Arsenal fans expressed their discontentment with Zinchenko's message. Some demanded that the club sell the defender immediately, labeling his actions as "nonsense" and "pathetic." The disappointment was heightened by Zinchenko's significant transfer fee and the emotional investment fans place in their team's pursuit of success.
However, not all Gunners fans were critical of Zinchenko's gesture. Some supporters interpreted it as an act of sportsmanship and understanding, acknowledging that the competition and camaraderie of the sport extend beyond individual team loyalties. They urged fellow fans to remain focused on the upcoming season and hope for Arsenal's turn to be congratulated in the future.
As an Arsenal fan what do you make of his actions, was it right to congratulate his former team mates and club or are you just not having it. Please leave your comments on the comment section.
