Arsenal cannot seem to avoid Bayern Munich. In fact, the Gunners draw the German giants constantly; it has now become a common Internet joke.
Trolls guess the Bavarians when trying to predict who the north London outfit will be paired against. This is regardless of the competition, as seen during the FA Cup semi-final draw.

However, Gooners are not too happy about this match-up, and understandably so. The last tie between Arsenal and Bayern Munich saw Wenger’s side lose 5-1 both home and away – totaling to a record-breaking 10-2 aggregate defeat.
The second of those two defeats – at the Emirates – further enraged supporters. Demands for Le Prof to quit skyrocketed, with questions over his future still lingering.
Although their upcoming clash will be a friendly, Arsenal fans are not optimistic about facing the Bundesliga giants again. Check out the best tweets.
Arsenal vs Bayern again lmao

Arsenal will play Bayern Munich in a friendly this summer. I thought we played exhibition games against them twice this season?
