Bournemouth have been branded ‘little s****’ by a famous Arsenal YouTuber after they poked fun at Mikel Arteta’s side.
The Cherries couldn’t help but enjoy themselves after recording a surprise 2-0 win over the Gunners on Saturday evening.

That result was aided by William Saliba‘s first-half red card in which he was sent off for a professional foul on Evanilson.
Sharing the highlights from the game, Bournemouth‘s TikTok account showed footage of their win accompanied with a compilation of Arsenal YouTuber Troopz reacting to the goals in a double dig at the north London side.
Troopz, who boasts 307k subscribers on YouTube and 299k followers on Instagram, is famous for his reactions when watching his beloved Gunners and first rose to fame on Arsenal Fan TV during the end of Arsene Wenger’s reign.
But responding to Bournemouth’s video, Troopz did see the funny side.
“Fam, how are Bournemouth’s official TikTok posting this the little s****”, with three crying with laughter emojis.
He then added: “Fairs, the game’s the game,” with a rolling eyes emoji.
Arsenal’s lack of discipline on the pitch is turning into an issue for Mikel Arteta‘s side.
The Gunners have won all five games in which they have finished the match will 11 men, however in the three games where someone has been sent off, they have gone on to drop points.
Asked if it’s a problem, Arteta said: “I mean, playing with ten men, obviously there is an issue.
“The truth is when you analyse the three very different actions and the outcome of them, the reasons are very different. Regardless of that, we cannot continue to play with ten men, especially at this level.

“When you play with ten men for 65 minutes, the task becomes almost impossible. So, we need to eradicate that. It’s clear why, the reason and how, it doesn’t matter. We have to focus and it has to happen.
“The most effective way, I have to be very honest, is not talking about it. Because we tried and we showed and we talked and we repeated the message that we had to play with 11 and it happened again after a week or after three weeks and they said: ‘Guys, let’s try something else.’ And then it disappeared.
“So I don’t know if it’s the right way or not but that’s what happened, that’s the reality. We’ve also had two different periods where we had a lot and then not any. Now we have had three in a row.”
