Despite having a relatively difficult week after crashing out of the Europa League, Arsenal fans have every reason to smile after Liverpool's Invincible dream was totally truncated by Watford
Liverpool looked on course to end the Premier League campaign unbeaten after winning all their 26 league matches, with only one ending in a satisfying stalemate.
The spectacular run had threatened to match Arsenal's 2003/04 Invincibles record set by Arsene Wenger and his machines led by Kanu Nwankwo and Thiery Henry.
At the time, the Gunners finished the season without losing a single league match as they marched to Premier League glory in unimaginable fashion.
Liverpool looked like a side to replicate that herculean feat but an embarrassing 3-0 to defeat Watford shockingly ended that dream at Vicarage Road on Saturday, February 29.
The Hornets, who are one point adrift the relegation zone, put three past the Reds, with record signing Ismailia Sarr netting a brace in the first 15 minutes of the second half.
The Senegalese forward produced a man-of-the-match performance by putting Liverpool on the edge of dagger twice in what appears to be one of the greatest performances from him.
Troy Deeney would later add a third to subject Jurgen Klopp's men to an embarrassing defeat.
The collapse of Klopp's side was not lost on Arsenal's Twitter account which, after initially tweeting 'Phew', took time to send their rivals a classy message.
The Emirates took time to congratulate the Merseyside outfit on their own astonishing winning streak.
"Congratulations on a formidable unbeaten run," Arsenal tweeted at Liverpool.
