On Matchday 33 of the 2025–26 Premier League season, Arsenal played against Manchester City at the Etihad Stadium.
The game ended 2–1 in favour of City. At full-time, Manchester City players were doing victory laps while rival fans flooded social media with posts about Arsenal bottling the league.
But in the middle of all the gloom, one man lifted his head, looked at his captain Martin Ødegaard and said:
“It’s not done.”
That man was Declan Rice.
Arsenal went on to win every remaining league game, storming to the Premier League title and finishing 7 points clear of Manchester City.
But why do I look back on Matchday 33 with such nostalgia?
Because ladies and gentlemen, it’s been exactly 33 days since Arsenal won the league title.
In 2013, at 31 years old, Mikel Arteta was Arsenal’s vice-captain and midfield leader.
Born on March 26, 1982, he had joined Arsenal from Everton in late August 2011 for around £10m.
He left the pitch in 2016, sharpened his craft as Pep Guardiola’s assistant at Manchester City, and returned to Arsenal in 2019 tasked with bringing the club back among Football’s elite.
Fast forward to today, 20th June 2026...
It has been exactly 31 days since Arsenal won the Premier League title under his management.
‘This was not a head-on collision…this was one train running into the back of a stationary one.’
Travel Correspondent at the Daily Telegraph Simon Calder brings an update on the two East Midlands trains that have collided near Bedford.
Personally, I would love for our first Premier League game to be Coventry at The Emirates.
What would your ideal first fixture be?

In the current Arsenal squad, there are 5 players who are 27 years old: Martin Ødegaard, Kai Havertz, Eberechi Eze, Martin Zubimendi and Declan Rice.
Back in 2019, Arsenal signed William Saliba for £27M from AS Saint-Étienne, a deal that has become one of the most important long-term investments in the club’s modern era.
And now the number 27 shows up again, but why?
Because it’s been 27 days since Arsenal won the league title.
All the three Arsenal players that featured in this game contributed something:
1. Madueke: Won the penalty
2. Declan Rice got an assist
3. Bukayo Saka got an assist.
Being a premier league champion is nice.
