Poor Arsenal suffered another injury blow on Wednesday when Mesut Ozil was ruled out for 10 to 12 weeks, per David Hytner of The Guardian

The German international joined Aaron Ramsey, Mikel Arteta, Serge Gnabry, Mathieu Debuchy, Olivier Giroud, Yaya Sanogo and Theo Walcott on the sideline, plunging the Gunners into a real injury crisis. 

Did fans from other teams show sympathy to Arsenal? Of course not.

Meanwhile, even Gooners themselves tried to at least find some humour in the situation.

The injury to Ozil sparked a truly remarkable statistic:

It was all best summed up by @Kobus_Kunz, who came up with one of the best Photoshop jobs we've seen this year.

In fact, it was so good, it deserves a second viewing:
