Remember when Arsenal were the joke?
Now rival fans need us to lose a Champions League final on penalties just to enjoy their season.
What a turnaround. 👏🏾
Arsenal:
PL:
22/23 2nd
23/24 2nd
24/25 2nd
25/26 Champions
23/24 quarterfinal
24/25 semifinal
25/26 final
All I know is this team won't give up until they win it.
Hand on heart, I dont feel sad at all. Im so fucking proud of this group. Won us a PL after 22 years and took us to a UCL final. Kings who will be remembered forever. 99% of Europe would want our season.
Thank you Mikel and Thank you Arsenal.
I recognise my football club again.
🚨| 💣 "FANS SPENT YEARS HATING KROENKE. TURNS OUT HE WAS DOING IT RIGHT THE WHOLE TIME 😤🏆"
For years Arsenal fans called him Silent Stan. Absentee owner. Didn't care. Just wanted the money.
And honestly? They weren't entirely wrong to be frustrated. But they were wrong about the most important thing.
Kroenke has always had an outstanding reputation amongst fellow owners known for his hands-off approach, preferring to delegate day-to-day operations to managers and coaches rather than interfering.
That wasn't laziness. That was the plan.
During the first six months of 2022 alone, his Rams, Avalanche and Mammoth all won their respective league championships. A year later his Nuggets captured their first ever NBA title. And now Arsenal have ended a 22-year wait for the Premier League.
One man. Multiple champions. Same philosophy every single time.
🔸 Hired Arteta when nobody believed in him then never interfered
🔸 Brought in Edu to rebuild the entire structure then trusted him completely
🔸 Appointed Andrea Berta as sporting director then backed every decision with real money
🔸 Arsenal is not run as a vanity project or a short-term flip it is a long-duration asset built patiently over years.
🔸 Since taking full ownership, Kroenke and Josh have looked to share best practices across the entire KSE organisation on both the sporting and business side.
The owners who shout the loudest and meddle the most Abramovich, the Glazers, the chaos at clubs run by committee rarely end up with lasting success.
Kroenke put the right people in the room, stepped back and let them work.
Premier League champions. Champions League finalists.
Silent Stan isn't silent anymore. The trophy is doing all the talking.
🗣️ Jens Lehmann to David Raya on the Champions League final: “Do us a favour & play 90 minutes, do NOT get sent off! If you win it, you are giving something back to the fans which we couldn’t. I didn’t deliver because I got sent off.” ❌🟥
🥺🏆 Mikel Arteta: “It’s one of the best feelings I’ve ever had. I couldn’t watch City game. I could hear noises from inside, then my son opened the door, ran towards me…
…he was crying and he said ‘we are champions daddy!”.
