Arsene Wenger was left shell shocked by the level abuse from Arsenal fans after his team’s latest meltdown.
Angry supporters near the dug-out turned viciously against Wenger and screamed foul mouthed abuse at the Arsenal manager.
According to witnesses, it was some of the worst, loudest and most abusive that Wenger has ever suffered during his 19 years at Arsenal.
They told him to “f*** off” and urged him to go now as the mood among fans has turned nasty at the Emirates.
One witness said: “He cannot have not been aware of it. It was very close, personal and nasty. It’s some of the worst that people have ever seen.”
Wenger has already said that he is determined to stay and see out the final year of his £8m-a-year contract.
But even the most loyal of fans are now beginning to lose patience with Wenger despite his incredible success and record at the club.
Wenger has suffered badly in the past when fans turned on him, most notably when Arsenal lost at home to Aston Villa in August 2013 while fans also confronted him and hurled abuse at Stoke railway station in December 2014 after suffering a defeat.
Fans have been caught fighting among themselves on several occasions in the past few seasons as they are torn over Wenger.
Three Arsenal fans have been arrested on suspicion of common assault on a steward who tried to eject a fan during the Palace game.
