West Ham's Michail Antonio Criticizes Arsenal Fans As Delusional

West Ham striker Michail Antonio has expressed his frustration with Arsenal fans, labeling them as “delusional” for their behavior during Arsenal’s recent success. Despite West Ham’s victory over Arsenal earlier in the season, Antonio believes that Arsenal supporters become overly confident whenever their team performs well.

Antonio’s comments came during an appearance on The Footballer’s Football Podcast, where he discussed Arsenal fans’ reactions to their team’s performances. He expressed annoyance at their tendency to proclaim Arsenal as the best team in the world whenever they are performing well. The striker recalled an incident after West Ham’s victory over Arsenal last season when his agent jokingly called him a “waste man” due to Arsenal’s defeat. Antonio’s criticism of Arsenal fans is not new, as he has previously stated that he does not want Arsenal to win the league. West Ham fans have been supportive of Antonio’s comments, with one describing Arsenal fans as “the most annoying fan base.”

Another fan pointed out Arsenal’s lack of major achievements in recent years, suggesting that their success last season was their best achievement in a decade. Despite the criticism, Arsenal fans remain optimistic about their team’s prospects, as the Gunners currently sit at the top of the Premier League table and have advanced to the quarter-finals of the Champions League.
