Arsenal supporters numbering in the hundreds of thousands spilled across the streets of north London, chanting loudly and setting off red flares as they celebrated the club\u2019s first Premier League crown in 22 years.<\/p>\n
The festivities continued the day after the title was secured, with the squad riding in an open-top bus alongside the glittering Premier League trophy. Arsenal finally lifted the trophy again after their last league triumph under Ars\u00e8ne Wenger\u2019s famous \u201cInvincibles\u201d side, which won it in the 2003-04 season.<\/p>\n
Arsenal had wrapped up the championship before the last round of matches, thanks to an unbeatable points advantage over second-placed Manchester City. City ultimately finished seven points behind Mikel Arteta\u2019s team.<\/p>\n
The title represented Arsenal\u2019s first major piece of silverware since Arteta\u2019s debut season, when he won the FA Cup in 2020. For a club that had finished runners-up for three straight years before this campaign, the wait was finally over.<\/p>\n
Even the disappointment of Saturday\u2019s Champions League final defeat to Paris St Germain on penalties in Budapest failed to dampen the mood. Fireworks and vuvuzelas helped keep the noise levels high throughout the celebrations.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019re not European champions, but we are champions of England\u2014and that\u2019s what matters. So we\u2019re happy to celebrate with everyone,\u201d said Julien Guillenenat, a French Arsenal supporter.<\/p>\n
\u201cI think we\u2019re going to be fine next season. I feel like a weight has been lifted. This season was like it was balanced on a knife edge,\u201d said 44-year-old Arsenal fan Mathieu Garnier.<\/p>\n
\u201cFinishing second three years in a row is finally behind us, and these players are going to be flying. I believe that,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
Arsenal Women also joined the celebrations after their own success earlier this season, following their FIFA Women\u2019s Champions Cup triumph.<\/p>\n
Declan Rice, who joined Arsenal in 2023 for a club-record fee of 105 million pounds (equivalent to $141.32 million), said the win served as a clear reply to those who had mocked the team in the past.<\/p>\n
\u201cThey\u2019re pointing and they\u2019re laughing. And what happened? They\u2019re not laughing anymore. I love this team. I love this manager,\u201d Rice told Sky Sports. \u201cTo see the joy we can give people is crazy. Next year, we\u2019re coming back for more.\u201d<\/p>\n
Theo Grant, a 22-year-old Arsenal fan, expressed confidence that the club would reach the Champions League final again next season.<\/p>\n
\u201cHonestly, it\u2019s going to give the players more motivation for next year. It\u2019s going to be the best part,\u201d Grant said. \u201cWe\u2019re going to be in the final in Madrid next year. I\u2019m going to get my tickets!\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
