One of the pundits on UK TV used this phrase in the Arsenal vs Chelsea game on Sunday. Do you know what this means?
'Arsenal have been Arsenal-ed'

Arsenal are well known for their goals from set pieces but Chelsea scored an equaliser from a corner too and so the pundit suggested that Arsenal have conceded a goal that they normally score.
Of course, there is no verb, 'to Arsenal' but the meaning is clear - Chelsea have done to Arsenal what Arsenal did to them (and to many others during the season).
