Watford did us a big favour yesterday!
Watford tweeted Arsenal with a simple message after beating Liverpool 3-0 yesterday in the surprise result of the weekend.
The Hornets ended Liverpool’s lengthy unbeaten run, ensuring both Arsenal’s achievements of an entire season without defeat and the English football record of 49 games in a row unbeaten remained intact.
Arsenal have not had much to celebrate this season, so it’s fair to say it meant a lot to at least be able to hold on to our incredible and unique achievement of 16 years ago.
Watford certainly knew they’d done us a favour, and tweeted the Arsenal Twitter account to say “You’re welcome”…
Dear @Arsenal,
You're welcome. https://t.co/YBdLFn2ZJ5 pic.twitter.com/7H20xG275r

Of course, it doesn’t make up for our poor campaign, with focus now needing to be on trying to win the FA Cup, and of course doing anything we possibly can to stay in the fight for the top four.
We’re in action against Portsmouth tomorrow night, so for now at least, let us enjoy Invincibles day!
Loved a tweet further down the thread saying “The favourites for the first 2 players to make the premier league hall of fame – Demba Ba and Ismaila Sarr – Modern day heroes” 😄👏👍
Funny that no one mentions Wenger!
We had the best!
Classy by Watford, our training ground neighbours in London Colney. 👏
