Arsenal fans have taken to social media to joke that a number of Chelsea players are Armenian so they cannot play in next week's Europa League final.
The eagerly anticipated all-English final in Baku descended into farce on Tuesday when Arsenal announced they would not be taking Henrikh Mkhitaryan to the Azerbaijani capital due to safety concerns.
The Armenian's safety was a concern because of the dispute between his country and the host nation and, despite receiving assurances aimed at allaying those fears, Mkhitaryan has chosen not to travel to Baku following discussions with the club and his family.
