GARY NEVILLE rubbed salt into Arsenal fans’ wounds with a cheeky post after their title hopes were dented.
The Gunners suffered a shock 2-0 defeat to West Ham last night.

Tomas Soucek opened the scoring for the Hammers – but his goal was not without VAR controversy.
The ball may have gone out of play before Jarrod Bowen squared it to the Czech midfielder.
But officials did not disallow the opener as they could not find a conclusive angle to show it went over the line.
It brought back memories of Arsenal’s 1-0 defeat to Newcastle in November when again refs were unable to prove the ball was off the pitch in the build-up to Anthony Gordon’s goal.
Neville has became unpopular increasingly unpopular with Gunners supporters since winding them up following the Toon defeat.
The Manchester United legend attempted to recreate and prove on Sky Sports that Newcastle’s goal should have stood due to the curvature of the ball.
And he was back at it again last night as he tweeted a picture of him standing by a ball on the line.
It wound up plenty of Arsenal fans as one commented: “You were the worst full-back in the Premier League.”

Neville responded: “Agreed but great at goal line technology.”
Meanwhile, other supporters laughed: “Gary’s actually rattled everyone.”
More added: “Hahahahah Gary, proper wind up.”
A third said: “He knows what he’s doing here.”
Neville did later tweet: “On a positive note for Arsenal the front three are playing narrower and closer to each other to combine. They look dangerous.”
