Arsenal have been criticised for handing out plastic bags ahead of the Europa League clash with Valencia on Thursday night.

Prior to Arsenal's 3-1 victory in the first-leg of the European semi-final, plastic bags were dished out on every seat in the home end at the Emirates as the club looked to produce a colourful display to ramp up the atmosphere.
And it worked as Arsenal secured a two-goal lead heading into the second-leg at the Mestalla Stadium, with Alexandre Lacazette and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang both on the scoresheet.

But the club have come in for criticism following the pre-match display for the use of 60,000 red and white plastic bags, with Robert Peston leading the way.
The ITV political editor took to Twitter to point out his anger: 'Handed out to all Arsenal supporters, placed on each seat. 60k plastic bags.
'WTF! Hello β¦@michaelgove. There should be fines levied when clubs do this.'
One football fan wrote: 'Climate change is real. What do Arsenal do... print on 60,000 carrier bags.'
Someone else slammed Arsenal, saying: 'In the day and age when plastic pollutes our oceans, Arsenal give out 60k bags for entertainment.....would rather have had a flag, or scarf!'
After coming in for criticism, REDaction - organisers of the pre-match display - took to social media to let those complaining know that the bags are in fact biodegradable.
They even said prior to the display that they would be using biodegradable bags.

Let those anti-gunners put immediate STOP to their mere propaganda. All hail to the mighty mighty Gunners. Climate wise it's all safe these bags.

I worst most useless Chelsea team I've seen in years [Crylaugh][Crylaugh] The reason you want Arsenal to lose is because you are AFRAID.... Remember what Arsenal did to Chelsea the last time they played Chelsea almost went out in the last round and will go out against Frankfort even though i want Chelsea in the final
