After 22 years of being mocked for not winning the league title, it’s now been 22 days since Arsenal won the premier league title.
To put that into perspective, it’s been 3 weeks and 1 day.
🗣️#Arsenal legend Martin Keown when asked how he feels about people saying the Gunners have an ugly style of play: “I was looking earlier in the season, there were four or five teams that turned up to Arsenal that didn't even have a shot on target in some of those matches. And it's like, well, and then people saying, 'Arsenal are not really creating', but teams just sit on the edge of the box and to not have a single shot for 90 minutes – you know, that's four games on the bounce during the season.
“They've had to be imaginative, and they've had to find other ways. And in the end, it's a dominance of possession that gives you all those free kicks, corners, throw-ins, and then ultimately, there's just so many of them, and they're so good at it, they're gonna score from those areas. So, I don't see that that's ugly. I just feel that that's someone wanting to put a label on something, cause he's a bit bored, Chris Sutton (who said we have an ugly style of play), and that he wants to spice the day up a bit."
