The call by Arsenal fans around the world for Arsene Wenger to bring his 21-year reign to an end received another boost on Friday as some Arsenal fans in Ghana used the match between Black Stars and Congo to make known their displeasure with Wenger’s performance.
Banners calling for the exit of the French gaffer were spotted at the Baba Yara Stadium when a resilient Congolese side frustrated Ghana to pick a point from the game.
The banners had inscriptions like “Wenger Out”, “WingerOut”, Wenger at Arsenal, Avram at Ghana equal 2 failure, Wenger Out” ….
The popularity of the WengerOut brigade has surged in the past one year with Arsenal fans around the world pouncing on the slightest opportunity to register their grievances.
