PIERS MORGAN slammed Arsenal for a “lacklustre, passion-devoid, spiritless, pathetic performance” against Brighton on Sunday.
A 3-0 home defeat means Manchester City could be crowned as Premier League champions this weekend.
Despite Arsenal having topped the table for most of the season, City can win a fifth title in six seasons with victory against Chelsea on Sunday.
The Gunners could even hand City the title without having to play, with a defeat at Nottingham Forest a day earlier.
And Arsenal-mad Piers was not happy with what he saw in the 3-0 loss at home to the Seagulls.
A feisty match was settled by three second-half goals from Julio Enciso, Deniz Undav, and Pervis Estupinan.

Taking to Twitter following the defeat, Morgan fumed that the Gunners had “choked” after leading the way for the majority of the campaign.
He blasted: “All over.
“Totally outplayed by a team that just lost 1-5 to Everton.
“A horribly lacklustre, passion-devoid, spiritless, pathetic performance that cements an inexplicably dismal run-in to a season which promised so much.

“Bottom line: we choked. #afc.”
An ill-tempered encounter saw Gabriel Martinelli flatten Kaoru Mitoma in the early stages but escape without a booking.
Moises Caicedo then wiped out Martinelli just minutes later, before proceeding to slap hands with Mitoma.
Again, referee Andy Madley did not show a yellow card.
Martinelli was injured by the tackle and forced to come off, and later reappeared with his left foot in a protective boot.
