Arsenal fans react to Ljungberg having a suit fitted

Arsenal’s interim manager Freddie Ljungberg caused a minor uproar from some people on Sunday as he stood on the touchline against Norwich in a tracksuit.

He was expected to be wearing a suit, which has become a tradition at Arsenal over the years in their managers. However, Ljungberg opted for the tracksuit, which caused Paul Scholes to hit out at him on Sky Sports after the game.

READ ARSENAL VERDICT

Whilst some will see the need for him to wear a suit in order to follow tradition, Ljungberg has earned the right – through his playing and coaching days – to decide what he wants to wear. In reality, it makes very little difference to what happens on the pitch – which is all that matters at the end of the day. If he can string some results together whilst in charge of the Gunners no one will care what he is or is not wearing on the touchline!
