A number of Arsenal fans have welcomed Emmanuel Dennis’ revelation he used to be a huge Gunners fan.

The Watford striker spoke to Sky Sports on Friday and said he really loved Arsenal when he was younger.

However, Dennis admitted he’s no longer a Gunners fan – because following them wasn’t good for his health.

That’s something which resonated with quite a few Arsenal supporters on Twitter.

Dennis was speaking to Sky Sports ahead of Friday’s Brentford clash.

“I used to be an Arsenal fan,” he said. “I like Cesc Fabregas.

“But I’m no more an Arsenal fan.

“I was so much into Arsenal sometimes I could cry when they lose. That wasn’t good for me.

“So I was like, ‘nah, I’m going to stick to myself and don’t care much because it’s not good for my health’.

“It’s just me and myself right now.”

Here’s what some Arsenal fans made of Dennis’ comments:

Dennis joined Watford from Belgian outfit Club Brugge for a reported £3.4million in summer.

To date, the 24-year-old has made 15 Premier League appearances, registering an impressive seven goals and five assists.

Dennis will surely be on the radar of many teams next year due to his quality – could Arsenal steal a march?
