- Granit Xhaka turned against his own fans after being substituted against Crystal Palace
- The midfielder's outbursts drew condemnation from fans, with one suggesting he should leave Arsenal
- The Swiss international has not found it rosy at the Emirates since being named club captain
Alexandre Lacazette has left Arsenal fans confused after "liking" an Instagram post telling Unai Emery and Granit Xhaka to leave the club.
The bizarre reaction came just hours after Arsenal surrendered a two-goal lead to draw 2-2 against Crystal Palace on Sunday, October 27, at the Emirates.
Sokratis opened the scoring for the Gunners just inside six minutes of game play, before David Luiz doubling the advantage after steering Lacazette's corner into the back of the net.
Palace would however stage a comeback before half-time, with Luka Milivojević and Jordan Ayew scoring a game each to draw level.
Granit Xhaka was substituted in the second half of the match in a move that saw Arsenal fans sarcastically applaud the decision.
In his response, Xhaka threw his arms up in the air and cupped his ears as the boos grew louder.
He would later be heard mouthing "f**k off" to his own fans before taking off his shirt and storming down the tunnel.
His reaction did not go down well with a number of fans, with one taking to Instagram calling for Emery and Xhaka to leave the Arsenal.

"I’m sorry, I’m done with this now. You can’t be 2-0 up at home to Palace and draw. Emery I’ve backed you but bro, enough is enough. Xhaka can f*ck himself as well. Never wanna see him in an Arsenal top again," the supporter lamented.
The post sparked reactions from other fans, with Lacazette, who played the entire match against Palace, ‘liking’ the post on social media.
