'Not laughing anymore': Bukayo Saka and Myles Lewis-Skelly deliver verdict on Arsenal Premier League title win | OneFootball

Gunners pair have their say after historic title win is sealed

Having finished runners-up in the three previous Premier League seasons and failing to get over the line in several other competitions during the tenure of Mikel Arteta, the Gunners have often been criticised for collapsing at the business end of a campaign.

In the hours since the Gunners were confirmed as league champions, wild scenes of celebrations have been shared across social media.

Supporters descended on the Emirates Stadium to get the title party started, along with Arsenal legend Ian Wright, while players and staff soaked in the moment at the club’s training ground.

Present at London Colney were Saka and Lewis-Skelly, with the pair taking a swipe at the aforementioned “bottlers” claim.

A clip from Saka’s Instagram account shows Lewis-Skelly holding a bottle of champagne and saying: “They called us bottlers, and now we're holding the bottles!"

Saka’s reaction to Arsenal’s title win did not stop there as he was later on Jurrien Timber’s Instagram story to share a pointed message as the club’s detractors.

Saka, Lewis-Skelly and Timber are set to get their hands on a first Premier League winners' medal on Sunday after Arsenal conclude their league campaign away at London rivals Crystal Palace.

The Gunners will also lift the Premier League trophy at Selhurst Park before attentions turn to the Champions League final against Paris Saint-Germain six days later and the opportunity to complete an unique double.
