Bukayo Saka has posted a video of Myles Lewis-Skelly making light of the 'bottlers' tag as the pair celebrated Arsenal's Premier League title with bottles of champagne. The Gunners were crowned champions on Tuesday night after Manchester City could only draw at Bournemouth, ending a 22-year wait for a league title.
Arsenal have led for much of the campaign, but accusations of 'bottling' the title resurfaced after recent defeats to Bournemouth and Manchester City. In the video recorded by Saka, Lewis-Skelly is seen holding champagne and saying: 'They called us bottlers, and now we're holding the bottles!'
The team responded impressively to losing at City, winning their next four games without conceding a goal, while Pep Guardiola's side dropped points at Everton and Bournemouth. Arsenal could yet add the Champions League trophy, facing PSG in the final later this month.
Arsenal's players gathered at their London Colney training centre to watch Bournemouth's draw with City, which secured the title. Saka and Lewis-Skelly, both academy graduates, have been key figures in Mikel Arteta's squad that has transformed from bottom-half finishers to champions.
