Goal celebrations usually involve running around with your team mates and looking like a kid on Christmas. It’s a pretty-fool proof combination. But in the Premier League finale against West Brom, the oft-injured duo of Theo Walcott and Jack Wilshere found another means to celebrate their goals: hugging physio Declan Lynch. See below (only Jack Wilshere’s is shown, but enjoy the goals regardless):

Touching.

The medical staff at Arsenal is the unsung hero of the season. Think of the work they put in. Mesut Ozil and Olivier Giroud both missed significant time yet managed to return in the best form of their careers. Aaron Ramsey was in and out with injuries yet he rarely lost form.

Jack Wilshere and Theo Walcott are the poster children of injuries at Arsenal and yet they were the spark in that match. But they didn’t keep the credit. They gave it where it was due. Declan Lynch is set to leave the team this summer and that may have something to do with it, but the overlying message of appreciating the medical staff is still there and it’s burning bright.

It was a real class act by the two and it is hands down the most memorable irrelevant moment of the season.
