Arsenal fans have been mocked for having a band inside Emirates Stadium

Arsenal and their fans are being mocked after footage emerged of a band playing music to help the atmosphere on matchdays.

The clip was uploaded onto Twitter the day after their Premier League opener against Nottingham Forest, which they managed to win 2-1.

A band was seen playing several orchestral instruments to the tune of Tequila by The Champs, a popular Latin mambo song that has been remixed numerous times and is generally well known throughout the world.

Fans around the band were seen enjoying the show, with some even singing along and shouting Tequila in unison at the Chorus.

The reaction on social media has not been positive to say the least, with fans ridiculing the addition of the band at the Emirates.

One said: "Looks like a shopping center crowd...."

Another fan said: "It's very on brand for them. That's all I'm gonna say."

One other fan also replied: "To keep 90% of the tourists happy. They've never had a loyal fanbase."

If the goal was to improve the atmosphere, it seemed to work for Arsenal as the Emirates was rocking during their 2-1 win over Forest, with Eddie Nketiah and Bukayo Saka getting on the scoresheet.

Arsenal will be hoping to mount yet another title challenge this season, following up from last year's surprise surger for the Premier League, though Manchester City unsurprisingly hit form at the right time and bested the Gunners for top spot in the latter part of the season.

The Gunners will face Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park next weekend, where they will look to get back-to-back wins to kick start their Premier League campaign.
