Arsenal’s embarrassing hashtag for Liverpool’s fourth goal angered just about everyone

Conan Doherty

The day social media went too far.

When your team conceded a fourth goal and goes 4-1 down at home, don’t use a hashtag to describe your emotions.

When your team refuses to invest in the squad again and watches all around them get stronger again, just don’t say anything. Just go away.

63 minutes into the new season and the Emirates had already seen enough. 63 minutes and they were all booing already. Imagine if those fans at the game watching their team blow a 1-0 lead could see the Arsenal Twitter account calling the opposition fourth goal in succession.

#NoWords

You’d probably guess that it didn’t go down too well.

It really annoyed some people.

If you didn’t laugh, you’d cry.

Not everyone was lost for words though.

And it only shed the light on yet another depressing transfer window.

And the outlook is grim.

That hashtag though.
