It’s not a dream: “Arsenal” is the English champion!

In the morning, millions of fans in northern London rubbed their eyes, trying to read the news headlines. The numbers on the screen remained unchanged. The final whistle sounded, and the trophy was sent to the display at the Emirates Stadium. The 20-year wait finally came to an end. “Arsenal” won the Premier League. And this wasn’t just a hallucination after a difficult season, but a logical result of years of hard work.

Mikel Arteta came to the club in December 2019 with a clear plan: to change the team’s playing style, to restore its aggressive pressuring, and to focus on the youth and discipline of the team. It took five years to turn “Arsenal” from a team that struggled to stay in the Champions League to a team that was ready to win titles. Declan Rice became a solid center forward, Bukayo Saka became a leader who took responsibility in crucial matches, and the duo of Sane and Gabriel created one of the most solid defenses in Europe.

But winning a championship isn’t just about stars. It’s also about tactical flexibility, the ability to shut down opponents when they’re pressing, and psychological stability, which was lacking in the seasons 2022/23 and 2023/24. This time, the “Canaries” didn’t flinch. They secured the title not in the last nerve-wracking match, but a few matches before the end, leaving the chasing teams far behind.

For the fans, this was a moment they had been waiting for. “What if this is just a dream?” was the question that echoed in pubs in Slington and in fan chatrooms around the world. But reality proved that it wasn’t a dream. They had 28 wins, 14 draws, 4 losses, and a goal difference of +58. This wasn’t a coincidence. It was dominance.

Now, “Arsenal” faces a new challenge: to maintain this level of performance. The Champions League, the struggle on two fronts, the increasing pressure of expectations… But history shows that teams that break through a drought of titles rarely stop at just one trophy. Arteta’s era has moved from construction to victory. And London has finally awakened to the reality it had dreamed of for decades.
