Arsenal and Werder Bremen clash on Twitter over Serge Gnabry
SERGE GNABRY's hat-trick for Germany last night has caused a clash on Twitter between Werder Bremen and Arsenal.

Gnabry left Arsenal in the summer to join German side Bremen in a deal worth £5million.
The 21-year-old was never part of Arsene Wenger's plans and made just 10 Premier League appearances in four years at the club.
Since moving to the Bundesliga the winger has been in fine form, scoring four goals in nine Bundesliga appearances for Bremen.

And the former Gunners youth star has also announced himself on the international stage with Germany, scoring a hat-trick against San Marino last night.
Following the 8-0 demolition of the European minnows, Bremen gloated on Twitter about their star man's debut performance.
"1.Debut, 2.Hat-trick, 3.8-0 win, 4.Arsenal [wink face]," Bremen tweeted.

The post was clearly poking fun at the Gunners for their reputation as the fourth-placed Premier League team.
And it was also a dig at their decision to let Gnabry leave the club in the summer.
However, Arsenal took it in good spirits and launched their own similarly tongue-in-cheek response.

The Gunners replied: "On the subject of hat-tricks, remember this?"
And they included a picture of Ray Parlour celebrating his third goal in Arsenal's 6-2 thrashing of Bremen in the 2000 UEFA Cup semi-final.
