  /  autty

Arsenal enjoyed an incredible last-gasp comeback to defeat Bournemouth 3-2 on Saturday at the Emirates Stadium and a photo has emerged that links into Man Utd's defeat to Liverpool

Arsenal secured a 3-2 victory over Bournemouth in the most dramatic way possible.

Gunners supporters then enjoyed Sunday afternoon as potential Premier League title rivals Manchester United were thumped 7-0 by rivals Liverpool at Anfield. Fans flocked to social media to poke fun at Erik ten Hag's side, with some pointing out that Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta inadvertently predicted how many United would concede against the Reds.

A picture of Arteta did the rounds on Twitter, with the Spaniard seen holding up seven fingers during the aforementioned match against Bournemouth. Of course, he was merely urging the fourth official to add on seven minutes of injury time in N5 before the board showed six instead.

Still, here is what a few of the Arsenal faithful said on Twitter.

@HaleEndFinesse: "Mikel Arteta predicted the scoreline for Liverpool vs Manchester United a day ago MY MANAGER (fire emoji)."

@kjasuquo: "Arteta predicted that Liverpool would put 7-0 pass Man united yesterday Arsenal master class."

@Charzo_12: "Arteta predicted today's game correctly."

@purelyarsenalFP: "Don Arteta predicted our goal minute and the score today #mygaffer."

@christy11241: "Arteta predicted the winner yesterday and the liverpool v Manchester United scores today What a manager (salute emoji."

Speaking about the chaotic celebrations after the full-time whistle, he said: "Crazy. You lose sight of where you are.

"I didn’t know where I was running to. But just looking at the faces of everybody, our staff, the players, all the supporters. The smiles and all that joy in their eyes, it’s just great to live."
