RB Leipzig troll Arsenal fans over Smith Rowe pleas

RB Leipzig's Twitter page has trolled Arsenal over loanee Emile Smith Rowe.

Gunners fans have been tweeting the Bundesliga club with the statement "play Smith Rowe" after the 18-year-old joined the club on loan last month.

However, Smith Rowe has been injured and missed Saturday's win over Hannover. Leipzig boss Ralf Rangnick confirmed: "He has a groin injury suffered in London and will not be able to train fully with us for the next two or three weeks. We have to wait and see for now until we get him properly fit."

And Leipzig have fired back at Arsenal fans who complained about his absence.
