Fans have noticed a poster in William Saliba's home gym and it's not gone down well with some ruthless Arsenal fans online.
The 22-year-old has starred for Arsenal this season as they mount a Premier League title charge under Mikel Arteta.
But the Gunners have suffered a slight dip in form since the French defender picked up an injury against Sporting CP in the Europa League.
In a bid to avoid future injuries, Saliba has installed a gym in his house, convincing Arsenal supporters he'll prolong his stay at the Emirates.
Images of his new home gym have surfaced online, but some people on social media want him 'sold' after noticing a 'cringey' poster.

The company which constructed the home gym uploaded a series of pictures of the process and the end product on Instagram.
Arsenal fans noticed the decorations inside the home gym, which includes an iconic Chicago Bulls poster - featuring Michael Jordan, Scottie Pippen and Dennis Rodman - and a Peaky Blinders poster, which didn't go down well with some of their fanbase.
One Twitter user wrote: "Glad he's possibly staying but having Peaky Blinders posters on your walls holy cringe."

A second tweeted: "Love the bloke but Peaky Blinders fetishisation is a sackable offence."
A third added: "Get him sold."
A fourth said: "Why has he got a Peaky Blinders poster up?"
A fifth defended Saliba, saying: "Thomas Shelby in the background, I like that!"

Jakub Kiwior and Rob Holding have deputised in Saliba's absence, with the star defender seemingly set to miss the rest of the 2022/23 campaign.
A huge blow for Arsenal as they look to pip Manchester City to the league title.
