‘Nothing is authentic about this club’ – Arsenal fans brutally trolled for bizarre ‘Ford Fiesta’ chant in Munich
ARSENAL fans were branded inauthentic after a chant went viral on social media this week.
Prior to the Gunners’ Champions League clash with Bayern Munich at the Allianz Arena, fans gathered at a pub in Germany.
They were filmed singing a new chant ahead of the quarter-final second-leg which went: “Josh Kroenke went to Spain in a Ford Fiesta, he brought us back a manager, Super Mik Arteta.”
However, Manchester City fans accused them of stealing the tune.
City’s version, used when Manuel Pellegrini was in charge, went: “Sheikh Mansour went to Spain in a Lamborghini, came back with a manager, Manuel Pellegrini.”
One person took to X to write: “Nothing is authentic about this club.”
Another commented: “You want to be City so so bad .”
A third said: “Cringing, try and be a bit more original or at least do a good version of it.”
While a City fan wrote: “They want to be us so bad. It’s actually painful.”
Both Arsenal and Man City crashed out of the Champions League on Wednesday.

Thomas Tuchel’s genius tactical tweak against Arsenal
FANS hailed Thomas Tuchel’s tactical tweak that “took Bukayo Saka out of the game” in their Champions League victory against Arsenal.
With regular full-back Alphonso Davies suspended, Tuchel deployed TWO full backs in his place in the shape of Noussair Mazraoui and Raphael Guerreiro.
The duo doubled up on Saka, with Mazraoui at left-back and Guerreiro playing higher up, offering him protection from midfield.
And the plan could not have worked out any better with Saka almost totally nullified.
One fan noted: “Thomas Tuchel with a tactical masterclass today starting two full-backs on the left wing to keep Bukayo Saka locked down.
“Through 75 minutes, Saka has 0 shots and 0 chances created. Just 19 accurate passes & 32 total touches…”
Tuchel himself explained: “You have to defend a lot on that side. Arsenal’s right side is where most attacks usually start. That’s their danger side. That’s why we chose Rafa (Guerreiro).”
