Arsenal were without their 'Big Fucking German' for the visit to Bayern Munich as they ultimately endured an absolute miserable evening losing 5-1.

Per Mertesacker's only contribution to the game was issuing a rally cry before kick-off, posting the following message on Twitter; "We mean business tonight!"

If by business he meant capitulating then Arsenal sure did the business as Arsene Wenger's charges now face an improbable task in advancing to the next round of the Champions League.

Needless to say, the Arsenal faithfuls were wary of the pre-game Tweet while many were quick to jump on his message after the humiliating thrashing.

Here are some of the best reactions:

Arsenal now go from playing Bayern Munich to facing English minnows Sutton on Monday night in the FA Cup.
