On November 25, 2019, Arsenal fan groups launched the #WeCareDoYou campaign, a protest against the Arsenal board with a supporting petition signed by over 100,000 fans who felt 'a disconnect from the club'. The campaign aimed to address the 'alarming and desperate state of things on and off the pitch that need urgent action.'
As reported by skysport, the fan statement made no direct reference to head coach Unai Emery, but reiterated their concerns about the club's leadership. The statement read: 'We have been told to 'get excited' and to support the team. As Arsenal supporters we have done both.'
However, the early optimism of summer has given way to renewed concerns about the club's overall direction and the leadership of owner Stan Kroenke. Fans feel that the club is 'rudderless and floating aimlessly, unsure of its destination.'
Following a 2-2 draw with Southampton on Saturday, Arsenal fans booed their team off, extending a run of six games without a win in all competitions. The fan groups have united to issue a statement, accusing the owner of 'rudderless' leadership and leaving the club 'floating aimlessly'. The statement has sparked renewed concerns about the club's leadership and direction.
