Arsenal fans furious with Albert Sambi Lokonga for actions after Man City FA Cup loss

But another fan, @arsene_knows, stuck up for Lokonga and said: “People watched 30 seconds of a documentary featuring Sambi Lokonga, watched him play for the first time in months away at the champions and are all over him like he committed a murder.”
Arteta has made a point of instructing his players to display their gratitude to their away fans, who would have deserved a show of appreciation after making the trip to Manchester on a Friday evening. And for Lokonga to walk off suggests there may be some doubts over his future at the club.
Arsenal have already had one £60m bid for Brighton starlet Moises Caicedo rejected in the transfer window, with Arteta keen to strengthen his midfield options.
Should the Ecuadorian arrive, it would only push Lokonga further down the pecking order behind Partey, Granit Xhaka and Mohamed Elneny after his disappointing spell in north London so far.
