Unai Emery first reacts after ‘Arsenal players embroiled in hippy crack storm’

A few weeks ago some pictures emerged where Arsenal stars could be seen using laughing gas at a swanky venue. Arsenal publicly warned players – including Mesut Ozil after footage emerged of a group of players using 'hippy crack' just days before the start of the season. And now Spanish boss Emery has revealed how he reacted to the news in an interview with Spanish station TVE. "The best and the greatest urgency as soon as a news item comes out is that it does not alter our day to day," he said of the incident. "In England they look much more like a game, they do not give so much importance to winning or losing," he said. "When you lose you can go and say hello to your followers that they talk to you. "Now in Spain, I would never talk to supporters, not even when I won, to avoid going there when I lost." The footage shows Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, Alexandre Lacazette  Sead Kolasinac and Matteo Guendouzi at a 'champagne and vodka party' holding balloons said to contain nitrous oxide, also known as laughing gas.
