Piers Morgan mercilessly trolls Gallagher brothers, Lord Sugar and Spurs fans over Arsenal's title win

Arsenal have clinched their first Premier League title in 22 years - and Piers Morgan revelled in his chance to celebrate online.

Mr Morgan, 61, has wasted no time in making a number of jibes at targets on X - including the Gallagher brothers, Erling Haaland, and Lord Sugar.

The broadcaster is known for his love of the Gunners, regularly getting into debates online with rival fans in support of his club.

On Tuesday evening, he had the last laugh, as he shared a picture with his “haters” in which he is seen with a cigar in his mouth and champagne in his hand, wearing a replica Arsenal shirt.

Mr Morgan shared numerous videos and pictures delighting in his team’s success.

He wrote: “Premier League Champions. 22 years of hurt and pain. 5 times the bridesmaid. Tonight, finally, THE BRIDE.

“Congrats, chaps. So proud of you all for winning the toughest League in the world.”

Then - the trolling began.

Mr Morgan first aimed a dig at the Manchester City fan who went viral for drinking from a bottle of “Arsenal tears” at a match earlier in the season.

Sharing a picture of the fan, he wrote: “Is that a bottle, mate.. or are you just very pleased to see Arsenal win the League?”

He then turned his aim to regular rival Lord Sugar - who is a former Tottenham chairman and co-owner- stating that the title win could “only be sweeter if Spurs get relegated”.

After a short break, the jibes kept coming on Wednesday morning - with Mr Morgan turning his attention to Manchester City fans, the Gallagher brothers.

“Morning mate @NoelGallagher - hope you and @liamgallagher are OK”, he wrote.

Next up, he mocked City’s star striker, Erling Haaland.

Replying to one of Haaland’s old posts asking what to eat, Mr Morgan helpfully suggested: “Humble pie?”

The City striker had famously told Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta to “stay humble” following a fiery 2-2 draw with Arsenal last season.

Finally, he returned to mocking the City fan with the water bottle - calling for a statue of him to be built outside Arsenal’s stadium for “single-handedly inspiring us to win the League.”

He then reshared one fan’s mock-up version of the statue, complete with laughing emojis.

Mr Morgan may have more reason to celebrate this month- Arsenal will take on Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League final on May 30.
