Arsenal fan petitions for Daniel Agger ban following Jack Wilshere challenge

Arsenal fan petitions for Agger ban

An Arsenal fan has created an online petition calling for the Football Association to ban Liverpool defender Daniel Agger for a challenge on Jack Wilshere.

The Gunners midfielder has been ruled out for six weeks with a hairline fracture in his left foot.

The 22-year-old picked up the injury following a clash with Agger during Wednesday night's 1-0 win for England over Denmark at Wembley.

The petition comes just days after another Arsenal fan demanded that Liverpool "free" striker Luis Suarez after it was revealed that Reds owner John W Henry ignored the forward's £40m buyout clause, which was triggered by the Gunners last summer.

According to The Metro, the petition targeting Agger read: "We, the fans of the famous Arsenal Football Club are calling upon the Football Assosiation to investigate the challenege made on Jack Wilshere by Daniel Agger during the internationalfriendly.

"In the past few days it has been well-known that Liverpool FC have been on a campaign to destory Arsenal and we, the fans of Arsenal, believe Daniel Agger was instructed by Liverpool's owner John Henry to target Jack Wilshere during the match.

"Jack Wilshere will be out for around 6 weeks, another damaging blow to Arsenal and Liverpool FC are to blame for this."

Liverpool and Arsenal are currently on the same points in the Premier League table, residing second and third respectively.
