Arsenal fans will be ’embarrassed’ by Gabriel’s tweet to Ivan Toney following the Gunners’ win at Brentford, says talkSPORT’s Andy Goldstein.
Mikel Arteta’s men restored their place at the top of the Premier League as they A 3-0 win was achievedat the Brentford Community Stadium.
However, what happened on Twitter arguably caused more of a stir with Gabriel tweeting: “Nice kick about with the boys.”
This was Toney’s exact tweet of these words on the opening night last season when the Bees beat Arsenal.
Footage from Arsenal’s Amazon All or Nothing documentary showed Arteta It is used to motivate his playersArsenal won the Emirates Stadium’s return fixture 2-1.
And in their first trip to Brentford’s home since that night in August 2021, Gabriel decided to have one more nibble at Toney.
Toney said that he now found Gabriel’s tweet ‘cringey’He admitted that he did not want to reply to the Brazilian.
But Goldstein has taken a dim view on it, while Arsenal fan Bent admits Gabriel’s reaction was ‘over the top.’
“Putting them back in their box, that’s what Arsenal are doing,” Bent said on Drivetime.
“Brentford have been fantastic since they’ve been back in the Premier League and you know what it’s like, it’s like David vs Goliath and Brentford won the first one.
“It’s a little bit over the top, you have to say. But I’ve got no problem with it.”
“If my club, Manchester United, beat Brentford and I saw Cristiano Ronaldo or Bruno Fernandes send ‘Nice kick about with the boys’ I’d be quite embarrassed actually now that I think about it,” Goldstein added.
“I’d be embarrassed about it. They shouldn’t be on our radar.
“If my club did it I’d be embarrassed, you [Bent]You should be ashamed!
“I reckon Arsenal fans will be embarrassed about it.”
