FOOTBALL fans want a “lifetime ban” for one Arsenal supporter.

And Mudryk ended up moving to Stamford Bridge instead of the Emirates, infuriating Gooners.
The forward got a taste of life in north London when he came off the bench in Chelsea’s 3-1 defeat on Tuesday.

And football fans, including Gunners supporters, went online to condemn the rogue behaviour.
One fan said: “Whoever that is shining the laser deserves a lifetime ban.”
Another declared: “Why are they pointing lasers at Mudryk? Weird bunch.”
One noted: “Classless. We are better than that.”
Another boomed: “I don’t like this behaviour, we don’t know the full story and how much it was Mudryk’s fault he ended up at Chelsea.”
One yelled: “I can’t stand the guy who is shining that dumb laser on Mudryk. This is really low.”
Another added: “Utter toxic. The ref should have stopped the match. The last was obviously putting Mudryk’s eyes in danger.”
