Arsenal sponsor SportPesa trolled January signings Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Henrikh Mkhitaryan during the 3-0 defeat by Manchester City on Thursday night.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
As if losing by the same scoreline to Pep Guardiola\u2019s side in the space of four days wasn\u2019t difficult enough, the club\u2019s own sponsor mocked Arsene Wenger\u2019s side.<\/p>\n
The Africa-based bookmakers tweeted several times during the match and targeted Aubameyang and Mkhitaryan.<\/p>\n
The company, whose partnership with Arsenal involves training camps in Africa, posted on the social media platform: \u2018There\u2019s still an hour left of this. #ARSMCI\u2019.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
City were 3-0 up by the 33rd minute, courtesy of goals from Bernardo Silva, David Silva and Leroy Sane.<\/p>\n
SportPesa then tweeted a picture of Aubameyang with his head in his hands next to Mkhitaryan with the caption: \u2018\u201c#YoPierre\u2026 we\u2019ve made a massive mistake here pal.\u201d #ARSMCI\u2019<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Arsenal completed the the club-record \u00a356million signing of the striker from Borussia Dortmund on deadline day, while Mkhitaryan joined from Manchester United a few days before in a swap deal with Alexis Sanchez.<\/p>\n
In February Arsenal earned just two wins against Everton and Ostersunds.<\/p>\n
Aubameyang scored on his Gunners debut in their 5-1 win over the Toffees but has not added to that goal since and missed a penalty early in the second half against City.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
