Didier Drogba cannot terrorise Arsenal on the pitch anymore, but he can still get the last word on social media as he took to Twitter to rain on Theo Walcott's parade.

The Arsenal winger continued his impressive start to the season with another goal in the Gunners 3-0 demolition of Chelsea, and showed his delight after the match by posting a picture of his celebration accompanied by the caption of the scoreline.

However, Drogba was keen to highlight the poor performance of Chelsea instead, and responded with: 'Congrats on your win bro @theowalcott, but it is easy for the mouses to dance when the cats aren't there'.

Drogba was often the bane of Arsenal during his time at Stamford Bridge, scoring an incredible 15 goals in 16 games between 2004 and 2012.

He even found the net against the Gunners during their pre-season tour of America, where he was among the starting line-up for the MLS All-Stars in a 3-1 defeat.

Prior to their convincing victory at the Emirates on Saturday, Arsenal had only beaten the Blues once in the last five years - in 2011 - when Cesc Fabregas was their captain.

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger claimed Theo Walcott's upturn in form is a result of an improved attitude, after struggling to make an impact in a tough 18 month spell.

'I believe the change in Walcott is his attitude this season,' Wenger said. 'He's ready to fight, to commit, and you know straight away he gets the crowd behind him.

'A Theo Walcott of that stature is a completely different player.'
