Aftermath UCL Final Loss: How EPL Rivals, Players Mocked Arsenal by Islie(op): 8:10pm On May 31

By Daily Trust

Arsenal’s dream of winning a first-ever UEFA Champions League title ended in heartbreak on Saturday night as they lost 4-3 on penalties to Paris Saint-Germain following a tense 1-1 draw after regulation and extra time.

The Gunners, making only their second Champions League final appearance and their first in 20 years, fell short after missed spot-kicks from Eberechi Eze and Gabriel Magalhães handed PSG victory.

The defeat quickly sparked reactions across the English Premier League, with rival clubs and players taking subtle and direct digs at Mikel Arteta’s side.

Chelsea were among the first to respond, using the moment to taunt their London rivals. In a post on social media, the Blues invited supporters to book a tour of Stamford Bridge, describing it as London’s “home of trophies” and accompanying the message with two stars symbolising their two Champions League titles.

“Come and visit London’s Home of Trophies. Book your Stadium Tour at Stamford Bridge now,” the club wrote.

Crystal Palace also joined the banter. Fresh from winning the UEFA Conference League, the South London club reminded supporters of their European success, highlighting that they now possess a continental title while Arsenal are still waiting for theirs.

Aston Villa, winners of this season’s Europa League, opted for a more subtle approach. The Midlands club posted about having “another trophy to fight for” when they face Champions League winners PSG in the upcoming UEFA Super Cup.

Nottingham Forest, two-time European champions, also weighed in by sharing an image of club legend John “Robbo” Robertson celebrating with the European Cup trophy.

Players joined in the mockery as well. Tottenham Hotspur forward Richarlison, who has often clashed with Arsenal supporters, posted a video of a baby laughing uncontrollably shortly after the final whistle.

Manchester City striker Erling Haaland also appeared to take a swipe at the Gunners, sharing a photograph of himself and friends smiling broadly. The post was widely interpreted by fans as a reaction to Arsenal’s defeat.

Despite the Champions League disappointment, Arsenal moved quickly to shift focus back to domestic success. On Sunday, the club staged an open-top bus parade through London to celebrate their Premier League triumph as they sought to put the European final setback behind them.

When Chelsea gave Kevin De Bruyne to Man city they won champion league,we gave Mohamed Salah to Liverpool, they won Champions League. We gave Rüdiger to Real Madrid, they won Champions League. Now We gave Jorginho ,Sterling,Kai Havertz Arizabalaga, Madueke to Arsenal because they are our London neighbours but they couldn't still win it. What else in life did Arsenal really really want from Chelsea again?

Arsenal FC were very silent when they were doing poorly. Then just from three years ago when they started trying, they felt on top of the world and began to abuse their seniors. Now the curses of seniors has made them remain as junior and so shall they remain forever.

Liverpool won this domestic cup last season, nobody even noticed them jubilate over it. This is nothing new. UCL is the real deal. Win it and transform your status forever. Not this domestic cup.

Season go soon start again, every team will start on zero point, no headstart, by October they will start begging man city to stop arsenal again. You begin to wonder what's wrong with their teams mounting a serious title challenge.

You really needed to be around Arsenal supporters before the champions league final.

I blame Man City for misbehaving else Arsenal would have ended the season with nothing.
