What is going on at Arsenal right now?
After going 2-0 up early on against Crystal Palace, everything was going swimmingly.
An hour later, it was 2-2 and the atmosphere was toxic.
Club captain Granit Xhaka was booed off before the Swiss cupped his ears and told the fans to ‘f**k off.’
If the Gunners had gone on to win the match, it may have been brushed under the carpet.
But VAR ruled out what appeared to be a late winner at the home side had to settle for a disappointing draw.
The fallout has been quite extraordinary.

There have been calls for Unai Emery to be sacked while it’s fair to say supporters didn’t appreciate Xhaka’s actions.
But it seems it’s not just the fans that have had enough.
After AFCTV’s Troopz posted an x-rated Instagram post, a certain Alexandre Lacazette was seen ‘liking’ it.
The message read: “I’m sorry, I’m done with this now. You can’t be 2-0 up at home to Palace and draw. Emery I’ve backed you bro, enough is enough. Xhaka can f*ck himself as well. Never wanna see him in an Arsenal to again!”
There could be multiple reasons why Lacazette ‘liked’ that post in particular but it really doesn’t look good.
It certainly seems to suggest that the striker agrees with Troopz that Emery should be sacked and Xhaka should never play for the club again.
Arsenal are a mess right now.
