But it was not enough to see his beloved side end their 20-year wait for the Premier League title.
That is because Manchester City beat West Ham 3-1 at the Etihad – as Phil Foden started the party with just 79 seconds on the clock.
And that saw City seal their fourth crown in a row – as Mikel Arteta’s men finished agonisingly short, just two points behind.
So needless to say, Chelsea fans were not feeling too sympathetic when the dejected Arsenal fan walked through the streets of West London past their stadium on Sunday afternoon.
It is not entirely clear why the supporter – decked out in a red Arsenal home shirt – was in the vicinity of Stamford Bridge just minutes after the Blues beat Bournemouth 2-1.
But the locals made sure he got a particularly frosty reception and ribbed the Gunners fan mercilessly.
Plenty of the Chelsea supporters got right in his face, pushing him around and getting selfies with him.
There were also joyful choruses of “We’re all having a party when Arsenal f***ed it up” as others simply mocked and laughed at him.

Another video showed the rowdy Chelsea supporters jeering the Arsenal fan as police officers were on hand to ensure things did not spill over.
Videos shared on social media led to a barrage of comments.

And a final user replied: “Only has himself to blame here.”
There was heartbreak on the pitch at the Emirates, too, as Kai Havertz burst into tears after the full-time whistle.
The German won the game with his controversial late finish – but then was overcome by emotion after missing out on a winner’s medal.
