Unai Emery has praised Arsenal’s ‘amazing’ supporters after some of his players failed to acknowledge the fans at full-time following the 3-1 defeat to Wolves on Wednesday evening.
The Gunners slipped up once again in the battle for a top-four spot as they found themselves 3-0 down at half-time against last season’s Championship winners. Sokratis Papastathopoulos pulled a goal back in the second half but it wasn’t enough for Emery’s side, who stay fifth in the Premier League following their second successive defeat.
At the full-time whistle, Mesut Ozil, Bernd Leno, Alexandre Lacazette and Sokratis all approached Arsenal’s supporters in the away end at Molineaux to applaud them, but some of their teammates headed straight down the tunnel.
When asked about the Arsenal’s players who blanked the travelling supporters after the defeat, Emery replied: ‘Our supporters were amazing, they were with us and they helped us.
