# Arsenal fans raging after Van Dijk and Robertson mock Aubameyang and Lacazette’s celebration

Arsenal travel to Liverpool this weekend, with both teams the only sides in the Premier League with a 100% record.

It’s all set up for a brilliant encounter at Anfield, with Unai Emery looking to avenge a 5-1 defeat on Merseyside last season.

And the meeting has now been given an extra edge after Liverpool defenders Virgil van Dijk and Andy Robertson appeared to mock Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Alexandre Lacazette’s well-known handshake celebration in training.

Liverpool shared the training clip on Wednesday morning, which shows van Dijk and Robertson combine in training before celebrating in a similar fashion to the Arsenal pair.

These eagle-eyed Arsenal fans were quick to spot the celebration and took to social media to hit out at the Reds stars.

### Read Arsenal verdict

It’s safe to say that some Arsenal supporters haven’t taken to the clip that well.

Aubameyang and Lacazette look set to come up against van Dijk and Robertson on Saturday evening, so it will be extremely interesting to see who comes out on top.

In the perfect scenario for the Gunners, Aubameyang and Lacazette would combine for a late winner and show the Liverpool pair just exactly how the celebration should be done.

However, breaking down Liverpool’s defence will be Arsenal’s trickiest task of the season to date.
