The reaction of the Arsenal board members to the defeat of BATE says a lot about Unai Emery

Arsenal 's shocked defeat in the Europa League against BATE Borisov was not welcomed by the members of the club' s board of directors.

The Gunners were beaten 1-0 in Belarus Thursday night and have a lot to do to reach the last 16 games.

The defeat continues a dismal record for Unai Emery in his first season in North London.

Several Arsenal personalities had made the trip to watch the meeting and seemed calm and collected as they took place before the kickoff.

Football manager Raul Sanllehi, managing director Vinai Venkatesham and chief negotiator Huss Fahmy were all present.

But Football.London reports that the trio seemed far from being impressed full time.

It is suggested that the smiles were replaced by a look of frustration in the arena Borisov.

It is said that Fahmy shook her head in disbelief as Vekatesham was slumped in her chair.

Sanllehi also reportedly went out shortly after the coup, with the defeat of the gunners' leaders.

Arsenal is not in action this weekend after being eliminated from the FA Cup and their attention is already on the return leg.

They must do without Alexandre Lacazette for that one after his red card.
