‘Get This Guy Out Of My Club’ – Arsenal Fans Fumes At Midfielder After They Lost To Man City

Arsenal fans are enraged and want their midfielder Albert Sambi Lokonga out of the Emirates after a ‘shitty’ performance against Manchester City in the FA Cup on Friday night.
Nathan Ake’s lovely effort in the second half was enough to secure victory for the home side on Friday evening in an incredibly close game.
It’s the first time the Premier League’s top two have met this season, with City’s win over the league leaders providing a psychological boost going into the business end of the campaign.
Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta decided to rest several players, including captain Martin Odegaard, but started influential midfielder Thomas Partey.

Lokonga replaced Partey during the break to make his 15th appearance of the season. It wasn’t one he’ll want to remember.
The 23-year-old struggled to cope as City grew into the game and arguably could’ve done more to stop Ake on the goal. He looked sluggish as Jack Grealish occupied Takehiro Tomiyasu and Bukayo Saka, opening space for the Dutchman to attack.
Albert Sambi Lokonga
Lokonga attempted to get in Ake’s way, but he bent a right-footed shot past Matt Turner and into the net.
Fans believe Lokonga, who joined Arsenal from Anderlecht in 2021 for £17.2 million, has been handed too many chances and want to improve on him.
Ligue 1 outfit Monaco made an approach to take Lokonga on loan for the rest of the season this month, although it’s been rejected on Arteta’s request.
Arsenal are light in central midfield following an injury to Mohamed Elneny. Earlier on Friday, their serious interest in Brighton’s Moises Caicedo came to light. Chelsea had made a move for the Ecuador international earlier in the window but Brighton rejected £55 million.
The Seagulls have turned down a £60 million bid from Arsenal. The Gunners have already lured Leandro Trossard from the AMEX Stadium this month after a falling out with manager Roberto De Zerbi.
It remains to be seen if they’ll return with another bid for Caicedo, who is said to be open to a move.
Below are some reactions from Arsenal fans on Twitter culled by infoexpert24:
I’m sorry but Lokonga is beyond helping. Get this guy out of my club! 😒

Lokonga is absolute garbage. No positional awareness, no tracking back, no running, no trying to close the angle. https://t.co/QVwHq08IQ6

Just look at Lokonga. Zero positional sense. Partey, or even El Neny would have made sure Alvarez passed back/wide. pic.twitter.com/sEa52V6p2f

The entire squad from Last season improved and Lokonga got worse.

Lokonga should be shown the door after tonight 👋🏽… the disrespect towards the away fans who have travelled such a long way and supported for the whole game even when you let everyone in the team !!!
Don’t ever want to see him in Arsenal shirt ever again ❌

I don’t want to see Lokonga playing for Arsenal again. The stakes are too big these days for these mediocre passengers

He doesn’t scan his surroundings, can’t position well to receive the ball and can’t even control it.. He’s the Belgian kid from Anderlecht, Albert Sambi Lokonga 😭😭😭😭

@AFTVMedia Arsenal board and Coach Arteta should immediately sell out Albert Sambi Lokonga from Arsenal FC because he is a complete flop that doesn’t have quality and Strength. Arsenal need player who is strong and experience to be back-up of Thomas Partey

🔴⚪️ | Captain Martin Odegaard was not to pleased with Sambi Lokonga’s positioning last night 😡
– Constantly loses focus throughout matches.
– Always looks rushed and unassured.
– Player also frustrated.Loan move best option now ✅ #AFC #COYG #FACup pic.twitter.com/AzilVE6mwB

I will never understand why Lokonga, one of the best ball players in the team with considerable defensive limitation, can not play as an 8 for Arsenal. He just can not, we’ve seen him try in a few games. Has the ingredients, but I think his head isn’t right.
Needs a move away.
