The 1949–50 Arsenal season, the Invincibles campaign, remains iconic. Managed by Arsène Wenger, Arsenal became the only modern team to complete a full Premier League season without defeat.
imagine Raya walking back into London Colney with that golden medal. The confidence alone is worth 10 extra points in a title race. He's right though, celebration is fine, but the title's still there to be won. The hunger is the scary part for the rest of the league. 🏆🔴
🚨 Arteta on Spain and his players:
🗣️ “First, I would like to congratulate my nation, Spain, for winning the World Cup. It is a proud moment for everyone connected to Spanish football. I also want to congratulate all my boys who represented their countries at the World Cup. To play on that stage is a privilege, and every one of them made us proud. A special congratulations to David Raya, Mikel Merino, and Martín Zubimendi for becoming world champions. They deserve every moment of this success.
Before the tournament, I told them that one of them had to come back as a world champion, and they made it happen. They represented this club with pride, showed courage in the biggest moments, and proved why they belong at the highest level. Winning a World Cup changes you. It gives you belief, experience, and a mentality that cannot be taught.
Now they return to Arsenal with new experiences, confidence, and memories that will stay with them forever. We celebrate their achievements, but now our focus shifts back to Arsenal. Success should never make you comfortable. It should make you even hungrier, and that is the mentality we want at this football club.”
🚨 Spain's road in the World Cup 2026 from R/O 32:
• Austria 0-3 Spain
• Portugal 0-1 Spain
• Spain 2-1 Belgium
• France 0-2 Spain

They had the MOST DIFFICULT route to win the trophy! 🏆
he literally built this golden generation from the ground up.Winning the U19s, then the U21s,and then just seamlessly stepping up to win the senior trophies? That’s not luck,that's a system.The players already know exactly what he wants because they've been in his setup for years
🥇 2015 - De La Fuente wins u19 European Championship with Spain
🥇 2019 - De La Fuente wins u21 European Championship with Spain
🥇 2023 - De La Fuente wins Nations League with Spain
🥇 2024 - De La Fuente wins EURO 2024 with Spain
🥇 2026 - De La Fuente wins 2026 World Cup with Spain
This is incredible. Since becoming the manager of Spain in 2022, De La Fuente has only lost two matches. 🤯👏
😂 The guy could have easily deflected with some ego-fueled boast about his domestic titles or his Ajax goal, but instead he just hits them with brutal honesty. Gotta respect it not many legends would admit that so flatly in that company.
Zidane and David Beckham were discussing what it feels like to win the UEFA Champions League, while Zlatan Ibrahimović stayed completely quiet. 😂
When they finally asked him, he simply said, “I never won the Champions League. That’s your conversation, not mine.” 🤣
That said, I'd rather have this than the chaotic United approach of throwing money at every agent who calls. So I'll take the patience... as long as we actually have a second target lined up. Who's the backup if the main deal falls through this summer?
🚨 🎙️Andrea Berta explains Arsenal's strict transfer valuation policy: "Success comes from making smart decisions, not overpaying for players."
🗣️ Andrea Berta: "At a club like Arsenal, ambition must always go hand in hand with discipline. Every player has a value, and we will never abandon our principles by paying more than we believe is right.
The biggest clubs aren't the ones that spend the most—they're the ones that spend the smartest. If a deal exceeds our valuation, we respect the selling club's position, but we are always prepared to move on to another target. Success isn't built on one transfer; it's built on making the right decisions consistently, season after season."

Honestly, I love that. The way he immediately hit him with the “you wouldn’t have scored if I was playing” banter 🤣. That’s proper teammate energy right there even when he’s nursing an injury, Saliba’s still chirping.
🗣️ Bukayo Saka on speaking to William Saliba after England’s win over France:
“Yeah, I spoke to him about the injury he picked up against Spain 🇪🇸 and he said he feels good, but not that good. He’s still feeling some pain, but everything will be assessed soon.
He congratulated me on the hat-trick as well. Then he joked that if he’d been on the pitch, I wouldn’t have scored those goals because he wouldn’t have let me. We both had a laugh about it.”
Taking it slow" is what you do in a group stage dead rubber, not a World Cup semi-final. This was the biggest game in years. Saka was our best attacking outlet all tournament, and you left him on the bench while we desperately chased the game.
🚨🏴 Tuchel: “Saka was excellent. He was ready to go in the World Cup but I still felt a responsibility to take it slow with Bukayo [due to his recent injury]”.
“It was a tough decision to leave him out of the semi-final”, says via @henrywinter.
