Arsenal fans are loving Gabriel Magalhaes' reaction to Bruno Guimaraes' birthday celebrations with Brazil.
The Gunners centre-back is currently away on international duty with his country and has already made his presence felt during training, sending 17-year-old wonderkid Endrick flying to the turf on his first day with the senior squad.
Meanwhile, Gabriel appears to have taken a similar attitude with Newcastle midfielder Guimaraes, having not forgotten his role in Arsenal's 1-0 defeat to Newcastle earlier this month.
Among all the drama at St James Park, Guimaraes appeared to elbow Arsenal's Jorginho in the head on the stroke of half-time, but VAR were not interested, leaving spectators outraged.

The Premier League's Independent Key Match Incidents Panel subsequently agreed that the 26-year-old should have been sent off for his actions.
While a damning audio from the VAR room exposed officials, who claimed it was not "serious foul play", advising referee Anthony Madley to wave play on.
And fans reckon Gabriel still has a grudge on his compatriot after he was pictured with a stoney-faced expression during Guimaraes' birthday celebrations with the Brazil camp.
Replying to the post on Reddit, Arsenal fans were clearly delighted at Gabriel's behaviour.
"Big Gabi bleeds red&white," one commented.
Another added: "Bl***y hell who arranged Gabi to sit across Joelinton and Bruno?"
A third wrote: "I was dead when I saw this, you know Big Gaby is still pi**ed…"
A fourth joked: "Gabby XL: “time for your birthday bumps, Bruno”. 26 forearm smashes."
While another chimed in: "True gunner."
