A boisterous Piers Morgan featured on talkSPORT this morning to revel in the 5-0 drubbing handed out by Arsenal to Chelsea on Tuesday evening at the Emirates Stadium.

The outspoken TV presenter and Gooner spoke with Ally McCoist and Alan Brazil to give his thoughts on how Mikel Arteta's men performed under the lights in north London. Morgan started by asking the radio hosts if he could make 'a very serious statement' about the match.

Somewhat unsurprisingly, the Arsenal fan then broke into song as he chanted the Gunners' version of Shakria's 'Waka Waka' and said: "It's my summary of the main takeaway from last night's game. It's a four-line statement.

"Tsamina mina, eh, eh, Waka waka, eh, eh, £60 million down the drain, Kai Havertz scores again."

McCoist, who criticised Chelsea on commentary last night, and Brazil looked bemused as Morgan continued to gloat about his side's result. Earlier this month, the controversial TV star was calling for transfers after Arsenal drew with Aston Villa.

He continued: "Last year, we collapsed at this time. The big fear for every Arsenal fan after the last week when we melted down against Villa and lost to Bayern Munich - the big fear was we were going back to where we last year and choking again.

"The number of Chelsea fans that sent me choking memes and GIFs all week... I think every Arsenal fan was absolutely jubilant. We rallied back in such spectacular fashion, gave Chelsea the biggest stuffing we've ever given them in our entire lives and we look absolutely magnificent."

Morgan went on to announce that Arsenal 'are going to be Premier League champions' as he predicted that Manchester City would 'choke' in their remaining fixtures as they try and use their games in hand to close the four-point gap that has opened up between themselves and Arsenal.

The TV star also saw little hope for Liverpool, who currently sit in second place and three points behind Arsenal ahead of tonight's Merseyside derby. Morgan predicted a 'Klopp tear time farewell tour' for the Reds.
