A case as particular as it is unusual shakes English football. An Arsenal fan filed a lawsuit against the club, considering that his sporting performance caused him “stress, anxiety and emotional distress”.
This is Eric Kyama, a Gunners' supporter living in Kampala, Uganda, who decided to advance legally after the recent 1-2 defeat against Bournemouth on the 32nd date of the Premier League.As he explained on social networks, the team's performance was "unacceptable" and evidenced "lack of effort, tactical incoherence and lack of sporting ambition”. The claim, which quickly went viral globally, also includes accusations of "serious professional negligence, lack of competitive integrity and a fundamental breach of the implicit contract between the club and
its global fans.”In the publicly released letter, Kyama maintains that the club has committed “a abandonment of professional duty” and targets directly against the squad and the coaching staff. He even questions Arteta's “tactical expertise” and accuses players of acting “without a discernible objective or urgency”
