Piers Morgan has jokingly taken credit for Arsenal's remarkable transformation under Mikel Arteta and their title charge this season.
The Gunners are currently top of the Premier League, five points clear of second-placed Manchester City as they mount a serious title charge.
Arteta has completely turned the club's fortunes around, having initially endured a difficult spell. But the board stuck with the Spaniard and are now reaping the rewards.

Morgan was one of Arteta's main detractors earlier in his tenure as he'd aim brutal tweets amid a tough run. However, he's now fully on board with the 40-year-old and has joked that his derogatory tweets have spurred them on.
"I’m very, very glad that my motivational tweets were listened to and acted on," he said on talkSPORT.
Morgan also said the current side are the best Arsenal team the club has produced since the legendary Invincibles.
"I’ve never seen the Emirates as loud and universal in its support for a team and manager as it is now," he added.
"The media are loving the way Arsenal are playing. We got spoilt in the first eight years under Wenger in the way they played."
The 57-year-old continued: "I think this is the best quality of football and best squad we’ve had since the Invincibles days.
"Are we going to win the league? We’ll see, but there are only 13 games left.
"Our next four games are relatively easy and I say that not taking games lightly.
"If City were to trip up and we go eight points clear... I’ll leave the rest to you."
Arteta's side have won 19 of their 25 league games this season and, as mentioned above, are five points clear of the defending league champions.
Arsenal resume their league campaign on Saturday when they host Bournemouth.
