You really can’t understand what this Premier League title means to an Arsenal fan unless you’ve lived through the last two decades with them.
This is a fanbase that watched their club go from Invincibles to years of banter, financial restrictions, stadium debt, constant ridicule, losing big players, finishing outside the top four, and becoming the punchline of football conversations online. An entire generation of Arsenal fans grew up hearing stories about league titles instead of actually experiencing one themselves. Went from being utter joke, losing 8-2, 6-0 to Chelsea. Mourinho called their coach a Specialist in Failure.
Some Arsenal fans were children the last time this club won the league. Some are adults now with jobs, families and responsibilities, and this is their first real moment of seeing Arsenal crowned champions. That emotional gap matters. This is not just “another title” to them, it feels like closure after years of patience.
And the journey makes it even more emotional. This wasn’t bought instantly. Mikel Arteta inherited a broken squad, a disconnected atmosphere and a club many people thought had lost its elite standards permanently. Arsenal finished 8th twice. People laughed at the project, laughed at the process, laughed at the signings, laughed at the young players. Every setback became viral content.
But the club stayed committed. The fans stayed committed too.
They watched young players like Bukayo Saka, William Saliba, Martin Ødegaard and others grow from prospects into leaders. They endured title races that ended in heartbreak. They watched rivals celebrate while being told Arsenal were “soft” or “not serious”.
So when this title finally arrives, it’s not just celebration, it’s release. Years of frustration leaving at once.
That’s why the emotions look different. Arsenal fans are not celebrating like a club that wins the league every other season. They’re celebrating like people who waited years to feel respected again. Like supporters who defended their club through every difficult era and are finally seeing belief rewarded.
And honestly, that’s what makes football beautiful sometimes. The long waits make the moments hit harder.
I recently met a guy who was making $40-60k/month from day trading
I got talking to him and he revealed that just a year previously he was losing 83% of his trades
Literally had a 17% win-rate while aiming for 1-2R per trade - which is terrible
I asked him what he changed:
“I just stopped over-trading bro. I used to take 100+ trades in a month and the majority of them were just dumb trades. I didn’t even change my strategy to become profitable, just stopped taking those dumb trades”
Asked him how he stopped himself from over-trading
He came up with a system:
•Before he would enter a trade - he’d label the setup depending on the quality of it
•He gave ratings of an A+, A, B and C to each trade before entering
In one month he took 147 trades - only 17% of them were winners
Then he went through them and eliminated all the ones that weren’t A+ or A setups
Only 29 of the trades he took that month were in one of these categories
And the win-rate on them? 62%
His average RR for those trades was 1.3R
Meaning that if he had ONLY taken those good setups he would’ve made +12.35R that month (instead he was -89.52R)
He continued this habit of giving his trades a label before entering - except he would ONLY enter on his A+ setups
Within a year he had grown to $1.2M in funding and had gotten $200k in payouts
Not from changing his strategy
Not from adding a fancy indicator
Not from improving his psychology
He was able to achieve this from just labelling his trades before entering and taking the best setups
If you’re struggling with this - try it for a month
Before you enter a trade, give the setup a rating
You likely already KNOW what setups are good and what aren’t - but you’re just entering the bad ones anyway out of greed
But once you realise that you’ll actually be profitable if you just take your best setups - you’ll start to ONLY take the good ones like this trader did
I saw a job post the other day. 👔
It required 4+ years of experience in FastAPI. 🤦
I couldn't apply as I only have 1.5+ years of experience since I created that thing. 😅
Maybe it's time to re-evaluate that "years of experience = skill level". ♻
