Arsenal fans rarely pass up the opportunity to lay into Piers Morgan and his tweet about recruiting Donald Trump as a Gooner presented them with the perfect chance.
During his recent interview with Donald Trump (*gags*), Morgan presented the President of the United States with an Arsenal shirt, which had his name on the back, and asked him to be our new manager.
*WORLD EXCLUSIVE*
The moment I invite President Trump to be Arsenal's new manager – because he'd build a strong defensive wall, have an attacking philosophy & want to win big trophies at all costs.
See his hilarious response on Sunday night, ITV, 10pm. #TrumpMorgan pic.twitter.com/pVZdFD6N0J— Piers Morgan (@piersmorgan) January 26, 2018
It’s bad enough that his son, Barron, was pictured in red and white last year. We could really do without the 71-year-old knowing our club exists thanks very much.
As if Gooners weren’t already embarrassed enough to have Morgan supporting their club, we’ve now got him running around asking Donald Trump to become Arsenal manager.
I honestly couldn’t be cringing any harder.
Opposition fans must be having a great time.
Fortunately, like most people with brains, Arsenal fans despise Morgan and perhaps hate Trump even more.
Therefore, their responses to the picture of the presenter clutching a ‘Trump’ kit went hit home…hard:
1. He hasn't even built a wall yet
2. Threatening to nuke people is not an 'attacking philosophy'
3. Arsenal are known and respected for their diversity and this cockwomble is even more of a bigoted prick than you. pic.twitter.com/QAjJTAowaW— Lee Hurley (@HLeeHurley) January 26, 2018
Not sure about that but Wenger would definitely make a far better US president

I’d rather pull my own eyeballs out, Piers. Thanks though.

And then he’ll kick out Ozil, Mustafi, Elneny and Xhaka from the club for being Muslim. Blame the non-English players for the losing. And he’ll make bogus promises such as “we’ll buy Neymar and Barcelona is paying for it”.
Don’t poison this great club, Piers. Just don’t.

Did he also tell you that Tottenham will pay for the wall?

There’s far too many multi national’s in our beautiful sport for his liking. I hope you’ve managed to pull your head out of his cavernous asshole by now 😘

Even Hector Bellerin and Heather O’Reilly got involved.

It seems that, just in case you were in any doubt, Arsenal fans do not want Trump to have anything to do with their club. Joke or not.
Can’t we just shoot them both off into space on some sort of rocket?
