David Bentley sneaks into Mikel Arteta’s office in a gone viral now-deleted video which has emerged online this week.
A video of the 40 year old, who came through the Gunners’ academy, is doing the rounds on social media, seen going into Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta’s office at the Emirates Stadium to mock Arsenal’s trophyless season after Tottenham’s Europa League win, ending their 17-year trophy drought.
Bentley, who loves a prank, was at the Emirates for a Sellebrity Soccer charity match, joined by celebrities like Callum Best, Jeremy Lynch, and Britain’s Got Talent duo Woody and Kleiny, who helped him infiltrate Arteta’s office for the stunt.

“Come with me I’ve got something to show you,” he said, wiggling a finger at the camera, then yelled at his Arsenal-supporting teammates, “Oi, oi, oi, Gooners, come on!
“I love this man,” he said, pointing to Mikel Arteta’s name plate on his office door.
“You know what he’s done for me? He’s only gone and left us a beer.”
He makes his way into the office, which sees a large photograph of Arteta lifting the FA Cup as soon as you step inside, then Bentley makes his way to the corner of the room where he helps himself to drinks from a fridge.
He returns with two bottles of Camden Hells beer – proud sponsors of Arsenal Football Club – saying: “Thank you, Mr Arteta! Thank you very much!”
David dances about in celebration, displays the ‘Winners 2025’ written on the back of his Tottenham shirt then sings White Hart Lane favourite ‘Can’t Smile Without You’.
Woody and Kleiny uploaded the clip into their socials, but it seems someone has taken issue with it, and has since been removed their Instagram, TikTok and Facebook pages – however fans quickly downloaded it and put it back online before others downloaded it and continued to share it themselves.
Posting on Instagram, they wrote on Saturday morning: “Many have been asking where the post of Bentley raiding Arteta’s fridge has gone…
“Unfortunately we were asked to remove the video.”

@gloomyspurs01: Getting trolled inside command central by a former player wearing a Spurs shirt celebrating our European Cup has gotta hurt more than Snake Campbell’s move. David Bentley, you’re a legend for this 😆 #THFC #COYS
@JARRADtalksafc:1) Pretty sure this is via the stadium dressing room not the training ground2) How was this allowed to happen security-wise and PR-wise?3) You can just tell David Bentley is the ultimate prat

@JorgTHFC: It’s so David Bentley putting an apostrophe in winners
@JohnHall1985: Boiling plenty of Arsenal piss this is… I love it!
@LewisEvz: Started at Arsenal but wasn’t good enough, played a handful of games for Spurs so pretends he supports them instead now! 👀
@IsaacsonL: Who let this drunk in. Guessing he’s still crying at the fact he never made it with us
@TheGunnersWay: This is exactly why Spurs winning means F all proper tin pot small club behaviour. Hardly know any Spurs fan they’re online. Who even supports em. Had it been Yanited youd have never heard end of it.

@ben_bowman_: Fucking love Bentley hahahaha quality
@Simply_Spurs: Only bottles, no cups 😂
@Billytheyid70: This is absolute brilliant Bents is a legend 🫶💙🤍
@SiStockeyAFC: You know what’s funny? This is actually the manager’s office at the Emirates (not the training ground, which is closed to the public), meaning, as Spurs fans, they’ve likely paid money to Arsenal to have a tour of the stadium of their rivals. Cheers!
@adiehollands3: The worse thing about all of this is the fact David Bentley has spelt Winners with an apostrophe!! 🤦🏻♂️
@steeeeeve940: Is that David Bentley? Still upset his Arsenal career didn’t work out
@nerans1: remember when he thought he was too good to play for england b team…. absolute waster
@RVAgooner: He left the fridge door open, a bit rude. Why is he barefooted? And that apostrophe. 🤦🏻♂️
