Arsenal goalkeeper deletes Twitter account after City loss

Arsenal goalkeeper Alex Runarsson has deleted his Twitter account after the backlash from their 4-1 Carabao Cup defeat to Manchester City.

The Icelandic shot stopper was given a rare outing against the holders as the Gunners’ poor form continued.

It was City’s second goal that saw the goalkeeper come in for criticism.

Riyad Mahrez’s free-kick was straight at him but the ball slipped through his hands.

Runarsson moved to the Emirates from French side Dijon and has only made a handfull of appearances this term.
