Fans are convinced Erling Haaland watched Arsenal's thrilling draw with Southampton following his 'perfectly timed tweet'.
Arsenal rescued a point against Southampton at the Emirates on Friday as Martin Odegaard and Bukayo Saka scored in the closing stages of the game to earn their side a massive point.
Rival fans and even some Arsenal supporters accused the Gunners of 'bottling' the Premier League title, having dropped points in each of their last three league matches.
