IAN WRIGHT was left jumping for joy after Kai Havertz's late winner for Arsenal against Brentford.
The Germany international fired the Gunners to the top of the Premier League with an 89th-minute winner against The Bees.
Havertz's late header – which was only his second league goal of the season – sparked pandemonium in the away end at the Gtech Stadium.
It also prompted a jubilant celebration from Gunners legend Wright, who jumped out of the sofa he was sitting on before declaring: "We're winning the f***ing league! Yes, Kai."
Wright then proceeded to walk to the TV and start kissing the screen before saying: "All of us Arsenal [fans] hugging together."
Wright's incredible reaction was captured by his fellow Match of the Day host Gary Lineker.

One remarked: "The epitome of legend."
Another chimed in: "Homie is kissing other men through the TV. Damn, that’s another level."
After the last-gasp victory, an elated Mikel Arteta said: "I’m so happy with the team.
"With the way they performed, we got the clean sheet and I’m so happy with how everybody played."
The Spaniard then heaped praise on Havertz, who has been under fire from many of the Emirates faithful since his £60million move from Chelsea.
He said: "I’m delighted. You just have to see the reaction of everybody, how much they love him, how much he brings to the team and this is what he needs to do.
"Today we believed he could change the game in those moments, the way they were defending, it was the perfect timing, perfect execution and he won the game for us.
"That’s what big players do.
Arsenal will be back in action on Wednesday night, welcoming Lens to the Emirates for their fifth Champions League Group B match with Lens.
