Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain liked a tweet calling for Arsene Wenger to leave Arsenal

Arsenal suffered a humiliating 3-1 defeat to their London rivals Chelsea today.

The Gunners have now lost seven times at Stamford Bridge in the last six years, prompting supporters to call for Arsene Wenger to go.

And Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain has bizarrely got involved in the 'Wenger out' debate by liking a tweet calling for his boss to be sacked.

Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain has claimed he was not aware he had liked the tweet

Arsenal Fan TV tweeted a video along with the caption, 'Wenger needs to go' which Oxlade-Chamberlain rather embarrassingly liked.

After being spotted by the Gunners supporters after the game, the 23-year-old has since removed it from his account.

And the winger has claimed it was accidental and he was not aware he had liked the post.
