ARSENAL fans are fuming after loanee Marquinhos' controversial red card in the Championship.

The winger was loaned out to Norwich during the January transfer window to build up some experience.

The 19-year-old started for the Canaries in Wednesday's Championship clash at Huddersfield, which ended 1-1.

But the Brazilian was sent off with a straight red card in the second minute of stoppage time after an aerial clash with Huddersfield's Josh Ruffels.

The referee deemed Marquinhos elbowed Ruffels and gave him his marching orders.

That led to an enraged reaction by Gunners fans, some of which claim there is an "anti-Arsenal agenda" against them.

Some Gooners claim they get poor decisions in the top flight as well as harsh punishments and now there is a feeling that extended to Marquinhos.

This comes after a raft of complaints by manager Mikel Arteta, who is often caught lashing out on the touchline during games, such as last month against Brentford when Ivan Toney equalised despite Ethan Pinnock looking offside in the build-up.

The North Londoners have also been fined a total of £165,000 by the FA after being hit with three separate charges of failing to control their players in an orderly fashion.

That was after recent games against Newcastle, Oxford and Manchester City.

One fan tweeted: "Marquinhos red. Anti-Arsenal agenda is real and beyond EPL. How is this even a red???"

Another reaction read: "Never a red."

Another posted: "That’s disgraceful from the ref. This is never a red card. Feel for Marquinhos."
