Arsenal midfielder Thomas Partey appeared to mention Manchester United in a video which has circulated on social media. The Red Devils fell to a 2-0 loss at Newcastle on Sunday to put their Champions League place at risk.
Erik ten Hag's side dropped from third to fifth in a matter of days after both Newcastle and Tottenham leapfrogged them on goal difference. United do have two games in hand over Spurs - tomorrow against Brentford and Brighton in May.
On Sunday, a video emerged online of Partey at a dessert parlour with friend and Man United supporter Nana Aba Anamoah. After being introduced, Anamoah asks Partey to send a message to the Arsenal fanbase, in which the midfielder mentions United's defeat.

The Ghanaian TV personality says in the clip: "Arsenal fans, I am with your super-duper midfielder. Thomas, say hello to your fans."
Following some back-and-forth between the pair, Partey said: "You are welcome, join us in celebration of United's loss," the Ghanaian said. The camera then panned back to Anamoah, who was left speechless by the midfielder's joke.
The 29-year-old's mention of Man United comes after he played a crucial part in the Gunners' 4-1 win over Leeds United. Gabriel Jesus' brace and goals from Ben White and Granit Xhaka meant Mikel Arteta's side maintained their eight point lead over Manchester City with nine games remaining.
