-Liverpool won after 30+years, we didn't see this crowd.
-Napoli won after 33years, we didn't see this crowd.
-Aston Villa won for the first time since 82 and every where is silent.
-When Chelsea won for their first major in 2005, we didn't see this.
Don't let them decieve you, We are the MYTH AND THE LEGEND 🐐❤
🚨 𝐁𝐑𝐄𝐀𝐊𝐈𝐍𝐆 💣🤩
Arsenal’s iconic anthem “North London Forever”, also known as “The Angel”, has officially been voted the greatest football anthem in the world 🥇🎶 ⚽
The Emirates atmosphere is simply unmatched ❤️
🚨😂❤️ | Jamie Carragher on the global reaction to Arsenal F.C. winning the Premier League
🗣️ “I finally realised why nobody wanted Arsenal to win the league…” 👀
Carragher admitted the scale of Arsenal’s celebrations worldwide has been unlike anything he has seen in modern football 🌍🏆
🗣️ “The fans are unbelievably loyal and crazy passionate.”
🗣️ “Show me another team that won a trophy and had celebrations like Arsenal did — streets packed everywhere, social media exploding all over the world.” 🤯🔴⚪️
🗣️ “The world was always afraid of this.” 🔥
This is why you stay a fan during the bad times. All those years of not making it. Of humiliating defeats and desperate draws. Of your best players leaving.
Of your friends mocking you.
You stay a fan for this.
Thank you @Arsenal
Now for the other one.
🚨🎙️Thierry Henry on Arsenal becoming Champions of England:
Arsenal didn’t ‘get lucky’, they took the crown from Manchester City. There’s a difference. For four years everyone in England acted like the Premier League belonged to City permanently, like the rest of the league were just guests waiting for permission to compete. Arsenal changed that.”
“After that defeat at the Etihad, the media buried Arsenal. Pundits folded instantly. Fans were laughing, rivals were posting memes, and suddenly the title race was ‘over’. But champions don’t panic after one defeat. Weak teams do. This Arsenal side responded like real winners.”
“And let me say something that will upset people, this Manchester City side is not the City machine people pretend it is anymore. The fear factor is gone. Teams go to the Etihad now believing they can survive. A few years ago opponents were beaten in the tunnel before kickoff. Arsenal smelled that weakness before anyone else.”
“What impresses me most is the mentality. Arsenal have been mocked for YEARS. Banter club. Soft. Bottle jobs. ‘Trust the process’ jokes every single season. Yet now look at everybody. Silent. Because the same club people laughed at just dethroned the most dominant English side of the modern era.”
“And for the rival fans crying already, no, this is not a ‘one-off’. That’s the scary part. Arsenal are young, hungry, aggressive, and they play without fear. Liverpool fans won one league and called it a dynasty. Chelsea fans spent billions and still can’t build an identity. United fans live in nostalgia. Tottenham fans celebrate finishing above Arsenal like it’s a trophy parade. Meanwhile Arsenal are champions of England again.”
“People wanted Arsenal to fail so badly because they know what this club looks like when it rises. The atmosphere changes in football. The arrogance returns. The belief returns. And the rest of the league starts getting nervous.”
“So congratulations to Arsenal. They didn’t back into the title. They earned it. And the funniest thing? The tears from rival fans have only just started.”
Now that Arsenal have won the league, I fully expect the following chain of events to unfold…
The Banter Era is finished.
Cooked. Cremated. Buried at sea.
All the recycled crap like “bottlers”, “where’s the PL trophy?”, “professional bridesmaids” can finally be retired alongside floppy disks n Gary Neville’s managerial credentials
For at least two months 🤣😅
I also expect football social media to become less tribal, less intellectually radioactive n slightly more nuanced.
Which, admittedly, is like expecting smugglers to start filing honest tax returns
But one hopes 🤞
Arsenal will shortly become the biggest club in England financially.
The prize money, sponsorships n global pull are about to go nuclear
Already almost there while rivals were busy holding “net spend” TED Talks.
Every elite young player on the planet will now happily donate a kidney, two molars n possibly an aunt to play for Mikel.
Recruitment under Berta n Mikel is about to become deeply unpleasant for the rest of the league.
When the lad wt the best hair at the dance also has money, structure n solid football… everyone suddenly starts returning texts
And yes, buying stars doesn’t always guarantee success.
Liverpool proved that this season.
But having elite players generally helps.
Ask City.
And of every beautifully airbrushed, financially mysterious, definitely-not-tainted season of theirs
Mikel Arteta will be a highly paid corporate speaker on the lecture circuit; mostly about lessons in creating company culture n astute man management of massive egos
I also expect acquisitions of brown labradors to skyrocket n more olive trees to be planted in office gardens
Musicians will be in demand for signature company tunes
As for the professional Arsenal grief merchants… Neville, Carragher, Deeney, Schmeichel, Evra, Obi Mikel n the permanently concussed circus of engagement farmers…
My thoughts n prayers.
Also pick a finger hand 🖐️
Their entire cottage industry was built on Arsenal failure.
Now they’ll have to discover new personality traits at the age of 50+
Therapists across Britain are also preparing invoices for them as we speak.
AFTV may finally have to pivot into cooking real content because outrage doesn’t quite hit the same when the club is lifting shiny things.
And hopefully Pietersen can finally stop performing emotional gymnastics every time Chelsea lose.
Watching a grown man, once legend, twerk against his own declared football club should qualify as performance art
Most importantly…
I expect Arsenal to now stay around the top.
This doesn’t feel like a one-night smash-and-grab title
This feels like the beginning of one of those deeply irritating eras where your club is permanently in the conversation for every major honour while rivals convince themselves “next season will be different”
While I am the eternal optimist, I’m not using words like ‘dynasty’ for a bit
Logical that Mountain Dew will sign on as sponsors of the club (at least in India)
“Darr ke aage jeet hai”
Last but not the least, Mikel Arteta, the Kroenkes… we thank you
We Believed…
