Champions 2025/26

Just looked at our premier league stats. Arteta made sure to use every player enough times to earn the medal. Only one with insufficient is understandably Kepa. But he should get his medal. No shame sitting behind the best keeper in the world

Eze coming up big in the clutch to save the season.

The days after the 2-1 home defeat to Bournemouth were probably the worst of the campaign, all the more so because it was before that huge trip to Manchester City that had been weighing over the team for months; the great nemesis that had to be overcome.

A growing problem at that point was not just psychological, though. It was physical. Arsenal’s players looked and felt exhausted.

That was partly because of the schedule, but also Arteta’s own training demands. The Basque’s response to any setback was to work even harder on the training ground. It was an ethic that could be construed as admirable in other circumstances, but not with finely tuned athletes. The effects could be seen in the injury crises endured every April.

So, Eberechi Eze, one of the newer players who was also among the most laid-back, went up to his boss. In so many words, he told Arteta, we can do this, but we need a bit of space.

The manager listened.

Meatwad pretty cool if true and hopefully bodes well for future seasons as well. getting across the line here was so important and should hopefully give us the platform to go on and dominate for at least the next 3 to 5 years as the current core go from their mid-20's into their early-30's, after which we'll have to rebuild.

The moment City scored hahah

Champions, ole ole ole!

This feeling will be get old eventually but not today.

Dunno if this has been posted but just go and type Arsenal in google 🙂

Is that a real source?

Le'Bob in the house!

I love that Bobby just casually hangs around the training ground and seems to enjoy it. Perfect way to spend half a day for him. You never see him in an expensive box or wearing a suit, he just pulls on his tracks and comes down for a warmup with the lads.

JazzG

Klaus He was a lot more involved in the club a few years ago, some people think his comments about Doku being better than Saka didn't sit well and he seemed to be around a lot less after that lol.

Bring Back Kerrea Gilbert

Klaus fucking love him!

Ray

BBC celebrating and covering Villa winning the Europa League more than Arsenal winning the Premier League lol.

Sicario2 the parade is going to be insane too. I'm on my hols in Portugal that week so not going but my brother was looking to head over for it and the flights from Dublin are costing around €800 return. We got over and back for the CL semi final for €120 and that was fairly last minute. I'd imagine there will be people from all over coming to the parade as well as everyone who was out on Tuesday. Its going to be mad.

Not sure if this one has been posted, but it nicely summarized damn near everything we’ve felt along the last two decades.

MistaT not to be old man yelling at clouds, but I hate that even football videos are now vertical because of Tiktok and people not wanting to turn their phones 90 degrees.

Mirth

MistaT fuck the first 10 seconds is a trigger warning

Meatwad

QuincyAbeyie
i remember when it was the old man thing to be vertical and you would have to tell them turn that shit sideways when taking pictures or recording videos. now some shitty app gets popular and we have these shitty videos with shitty soundtracks as the standard. this timeline sucks. things are suppose to get better with tech not worse.

HomeSteak

Mirth I still to this day have not seen highlights of the game.

Burnwinter

Mirth Fuck me. When it got to the 8-2 after Gallas and the Barca red card 😢

James

Still hasn't sunk in. Kind of wanted us to do it on our own terms, but by full time Monday night, I was like a shitting dog with a watch telling me that none of this was good for my health, and I was more than happy for Bournemouth to help us out.

Didn't know what to do with myself at full time of that game, except have a good cry, and phone those who've been there through this with me in these last 22 years (@RocktheCasbah included)

Looking forward to celebrating this Sunday, cry some more, and then be down in N5 next weekend to hopefully do it all over again. Maybe see some of you down there.

We've got super Mik Arteta, and he's ALWAYS FUCKING KNOWN EXACTLY WHAT WE'VE NEEDED.

CHAMPIONS!

Sad part is, i was watching the City/Bournemouth game by myself while i was working. I work at home, so i was all alone in the house. Although thank God i was also here sharing in the joy with everyone else here. I texted my wife when the game was over and she was upset because she knows how long I've (we've) suffered and waited, and she wanted to at least be home when we won it, but i told her she can share Sunday's trophy presentation with me.

RocktheCasbah

James love you mate. ❤️
