Grew up watching The Arsenal at Highbury when football was fun

[The Cretan Gunner 💙 @Highbury68]

🎵 When he gets the ball
I get excited
Will he go to the left or the right
He gets kicked in the air so often
But he never gives up the fight
Gimme hope Bukayo
Gimme hope Bukayo
Gimme hope Bukayo
Till the game is won.
Repeat
Tune by Eddy Grant
Gimme hope Jo'anna

Anyone moaning about corners now ??????

🚨Arsenal played 63 of a possible 65 games across the four competitions we competed in, more games than any other big five European league side in 2025/26.

Only in 1979/80 (70) and 1970/71 (64) have Arsenal played more matches in a single campaign.

Our 1-0 win at West Ham in May was our 42nd victory of the season and saw us break our club record for wins in a single campaign, which had stood for 55 years.

Meanwhile, the only big five European league side to claim more victories than us across the season was Bayern Munich.

Most wins in a single season
Season Wins
2025/26 44
1970/71 41
2001/02 39
2003/04 37
2007/08 36

We finished the season with 44 wins from our 63 games, posting a win % of 70%, the highest in our club’s history.

With 57 appearances, Martin Zubimendi now holds the record for the highest number of appearances in a debut season in our entire history, taking the record from Pat Jennings, which he had held since 1977-78 (55 games).

We scored a total of 36 set pieces (excluding penalties) throughout the season, with 27 coming from corners - more than any other side across Europe’s top five leagues in 2025-26.

A total of 27 of our 36 set-piece goals helped us draw level in a match (4) or put us one goal ahead (23) - the most of any big five European league team.

We had a combined 40 goals (24) and assists (16) from substitutes in 2025/26, with only Bayern Munich having more among big five European league sides. The total of 24 goals is the most we've had in a single season in our history.

We used 31 different players in 2025/26, one fewer than last season. We had as many as nine players reach 50 games for the first time since 1979/80.

We kept 32 clean sheets this season, six more than any other side in Europe’s big-five leagues in all competitions. Only in 1970/71 (37) and 1979/80 (33) have we had more in a single season.

Daniel Siebert is not even a FIFA referee for the world cup. On what criteria was he selected to officiate a Champions League final ?

[Arsenal Family @arsenalfami1y]

A refereeing masterclass changed the game and gave complete control to PSG. Every 50/50, every time PSG dived the whistle blew. He didn’t allow time for the corner before half time, he booked Mosquera for nothing. Arsenal denied stonewall penalty.

He destroyed the contest.

@LeGrove 100% agree with that

[Paul Davis @pauldavis_8]

Always feels great to revisit these wonderful memories from time to time…

This mural is bloody emotional.. the first line alone brings back years of disappointment, heartbreak, and sadness. But here we’re .. Champions of England, and just one step away from possibly becoming Champions of Europe. 🙌🏼❤️

This speech from Amy Lawrence is class & I couldn't agree more with her ❤️❤️

[Amy @Amylou8118]

My brother is staying in London tomorrow night to get to the parade but needs to find somewhere to watch the final, he will have my 8 year old nephew with him. Anybody suggestions? Doesn’t need to be near Arsenal.
