For years, the running joke was “Arsenal 4th”
Then the running joke was “Arsenal 2nd”
Now they’re making fun of Arsenal for winning the Premier League and losing in a Champions League final on pens to the reigning champs
Our rivals’ biggest games this year were watching us 😂
Used to get bantered for 4th, then it shifted to finishing 2nd. Now they’re trying to turn winning the league and losing a ucl final into banter. That’s just the goalposts moving as the level rises. Rival fans are hanging on for dear life, they know what’s coming.
Arsenal parade: 1.5m
Liverpool parade: 750k
Man United parade: 500k
Man City parade: 200k
Tottenham parade: 60k
Chelsea parade: 40k
It’s safe to say Arsenal are the biggest club in England (Not globally)
Met police have confirmed this is the biggest football parade ever held in the country after drafting in support from Merseyside and Manchester police to help with the celebrations. Estimated 1.5m+.
Pep Guardiola said that this was the toughest Premier League he has experienced. Slot echoed that. The floor of the league is so high West Ham were relegated on 39 points and three England clubs are in European cup finals. Don’t let anyone discredit this.
After almost seven years at this club, it’s hard to put into words what this moment means to me.
I arrived at this club when I was 18 years old. Far from home, barely speaking the language, trying to adapt to a completely new culture, new life and chasing a dream that felt so big at the time.
I didn’t know exactly what the future would hold, but I knew I wanted to give everything for this club.
We didn’t just build a team, we built a family, an identity, and something the fans could believe in again. To see this club back where it belongs is one of the proudest moments of my career.
I want to thank my family, thank everyone at the club, the staff, my teammates, and every person working behind the scenes. Most importantly, thank you to the fans. Your support, patience and love throughout these years never went unnoticed. You stayed with us through the difficult moments, and this title belongs to you as much as anyone.
This club changed my life. I will always be grateful for the privilege of wearing this shirt.
