Arsenal have finally ended their trophy hoodoo under Mikel Arteta by lifting the Premier League title, bringing an end to their six-year drought.
The Gunners claimed the title for the first time in 22 years last week, and rounded off the domestic campaign with a 2-1 win over Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park, finishing the season seven points ahead of closest rivals Manchester City.
Since then, London has been filled with Arsenal fans and their unlimited joy, including several celebrities. But one celebrity, Piers Morgan, who has been known for being outlandish with his claims in the past, has now been called out by some after some old social media posts came to light.
Piers Morgan Was Arteta Out

Morgan, who is a well-known Arsenal fan, has often been vocal about the club and their transgressions on social media over the years. But fans have spotted one old post in particular that they have now taken aim at.
The broadcaster has regularly been outspoken about his views and opinions on the club, and a post from back in 2022 has now emerged showing that he wasn't always the biggest fan of current Gunners boss Mikel Arteta.
Writing on his X account in May 2022, Morgan said:
"Absolutely pathetic. Why the hell did we give Arteta a contract before the season even finished?
"This will be his 12th league loss of the season, after spending £250m in 2yrs. That would normally get an Arsenal manager the sack not a bloody new deal."
Piers Morgan Makes Major U-Turn

But despite those thoughts, Arteta has remained in charge at the Emirates Stadium, and after leading the Gunners to their fourth Premier League title, it appears Morgan has made a major U-turn on the Spaniard.
The 61-year-old took to his social media account once again this weekend, following the Gunners' 2-1 win over Palace, and exclaimed his praise for the manager, while posing for a picture with him alongside his sons while on the pitch after the game.
"Super Mik Arteta," he wrote.
"The man who brought the glory back to Arsenal after 22 long and often torturous years. What an honour to see him with my sons on the day we were crowned Champions. Thanks Arteta!"
While Morgan's tweet from years ago has now resurfaced, he wasn't alone in thinking that Arteta wasn't the right man for the job back in 2022, after he led the team to a fifth-placed finish with 13 defeats.
But they are all now eating their words, and Arteta is keen to make even more history this weekend in Budapest in the Champions League final.
