Arsenal’s Saka sends ‘not laughing anymore’ jibe to Man Utd, Tottenham and Liverpool | Football | Sport


Arsenal star Bukayo Saka has delivered a brutal response to rival fans after years of being mocked over the Gunners’ failure to win the Premier League.

The England winger admitted there had been moments when rival supporters “were laughing” at Arsenal’s title ambitions.

But, he added, “they’re not laughing anymore,” in a clip which has quickly gone viral.

The 24-year-old has played a key role in the side’s resurgence under Arteta, helping transform the club from top-four hopefuls into genuine contenders for the Premier League and Champions League.

Arsenal fans flooded the streets around the Emirates Stadium in jubilant scenes after the Gunners were crowned Premier League champions following Manchester City’s shock defeat to Bournemouth.

Supporters gathered in their thousands outside the ground as news filtered through that Pep Guardiola’s side had slipped up on the south coast, handing Mikel Arteta’s men the title in dramatic fashion.

Red smoke flares filled the air while fans climbed on bus stops, chanted club songs and waved scarves as celebrations stretched long into the night.

In a video released on Arsenal’s social media channels, Arteta said: “We made history again, together. I cannot be happier, prouder for everybody that is involved in this football club. Let’s enjoy the moment.”

The club’s most recent title-winning boss before Arteta, the iconic Arsene Wenger, said in the same film: “You did it. Champions go on, when others stop.

“This is your time. Now, go on and enjoy every moment.”
