Burnley fans will be hoping that their Premier League clash at home to Arsenal doesn't throw up any controversial circumstances akin to last year's bout.

The Clarets were denied a deserved point against the Gunners at Turf Moor last term thanks to Laurent Koscielny's last-gasp winner - a goal which was rife with controversy over a potential handball by the defender.

Ahead of the contest in Lancashire this weekend, Arsenal opted to throw some shade the way of their high-flying Premier League counterparts by asking their supporters to vote for which strike against Burnley they considered to be the best.

And, in almost expected fashion, Gunners fans chose to weigh in on the trolling by voting Koscielny's winner from 2016/17 as the one 'strike' deserving of that accolade:

This is all banter naturally, but we can't help but feel something like this will be exactly the torch paper that Sean Dyche can use to fire up his troops ahead of the visit of Arsene Wenger's men.

Don't bet against the Clarets securing a surprise win over Arsenal as a result, and we're sure Burnley fans would have plenty to say about the triumph if they do!
