shut the f*ck up – Arsenal star blasts fans over Nketiah new shirt number

Arsenal defender Gabriel Magalhaes has hit out at fans critical of Eddie Nketiah‘s new shirt number.

Nketiah, having signed a new deal with the Gunners today, will also see a change in number from 30 to Thierry Henry‘s former 14 shirt.

News of the decision on Saturday led to a row on social media, where some fans saw the move as a sign of Arsenal‘s decline from their days with the prolific Henry as their top scorer.

Responding to rumblings of discontent about Nketiah’s deal, teammate Gabriel offered a frowning emoji and asked: “How can you be so ungrateful? OMG [oh my god].”

Arsenal legend Ian Wright also said: “Why don’t you say nothing if you have nothing positive to say to our players?

“You can never call yourself an Arsenal fan with negativity of this nature. Would you say this to Eddie’s face? If not, STFU [shut the f*** up].”
