Arsenal's footballers have come under fire for their treatment of young mascots again after footage was posted online of their pre-kick-off routine away at Liverpool this week.
The footage shows the Christmas Premier League leaders preparing for their 1-1 draw with Liverpool at Anfield on Saturday - but with their accompanying mascot left alone in the centre circle.
The young boy, who was led out on to the pitch alongside Arsenal captain Martin Odegaard, is seen standing alone before heading back over towards the game-focused players in their half of the pitch.
