I think avoiding relegation appears to be their "championship".
Going for seven in a row! What dominance!

Look at the celebrations! Didn't see scenes like this at Liverpool!

This strip is to do with history from the arsenal website -

Further details in the shirt include the outer back neck graphic which references the WM formation that Chapman pioneered so successfully, along with the inner back graphic which reads “Victoria, Concordia, Crescit” – the Club’s long-held motto since 1948 which translates as Victory through Harmony*.

The origins of the blue (obsidian) design features lie in Chapman’s innovative approach to the game. Arsenal manager between 1925 and 1934, his guidance took the Club to three league titles and an FA cup victory during that time.

Chapman was a modernising tactician, advocated the use of numbered shirts and white balls, and also made significant changes to the Club’s kit for the 1933/34 season. In that year white sleeves were added to the previously all-red shirt and blue hoops were also introduced to the socks. Chapman’s rationale for these innovations was he wanted to maximise player visibility, making it easier for his players to pick each other out on the field of play.

Arsenal’s Theo Walcott commented: “The players always get excited about trying on kits for the first time, and this one doesn’t disappoint. Arsenal is a club with an incredible history and to see this recognised in such a classy and modern kit is brilliant.”

The shirt’s crest reverts back to Arsenal’s primary design, having sported a unique 125th anniversary version for the 2011/12 season.


they use to only change the home strip once every 2 seasons, and the away strip every season, now its changed every season

Chelsea v Blackburn - Nothing. Chelsea will finish 6th regardless, Blackburn are relegated.

Everton v Newcastle - Everton will finish 7/8th, Newcastle have to win to finish top 4 if Spurs/Arsenal lose

Man City v QPR - City win and they get the title unless Man U win by 10 goals to cover the goal difference, draw or loss could see Man U get it, draw is enough for QPR to stay up, if they lose and Bolton win & Wigan get a point they are relegated.

Norwich v Aston Villa - Norwich will finish 11/14th, Villa are safe with superior goal difference over Bolton.

Stoke v Bolton - Stoke will finish 11/14th, Bolton need to win to avoid relegation.

Sunderland v Man Utd - Sunderland to finish 10/14th, if City draw and Man U win then it's Man U, if City lose and Man U draw it's Man U, if City win, Man U need to win by close to 8 goals plus what City score/concede. Man U lose it doesn't matter City get it, unless City lose by over roughly 8 goals or more.

Swansea v Liverpool - Swansea to finish 10/14th, Liverpool to finish 8/10th

Tottenham v Fulham - Spurs need to win to ensure top 3/4 finish, draw/loss and Newcastle win and pending Arsenal's result they could finish 5th. Fulham to finish 7/9th.

West Brom v Arsenal - West Brom to finish 9/12th, Arsenal need to win to ensure top 3/4 spot. Draw will see them finish 3/4 pending Spurs result. If they lose, they can fall to 5th if Newcastle win and Spurs win/draw and makes up goal difference.

Wigan v Wolves - Wigan need a point to ensure they stay up, Wolves relegated.

Need a miracle from Hughesy and the R's who will be chasing points to avoid relegation.
Stranger things have happened but can see Shiteh flogging them.
Bad omen aswell with the last time time Shiteh won the league it was over us by 2 points after we lost the last game of the season at Sunderland which is where we finish up this season


City will smash QPR, it will be all over at half time.

Bully.. if City wins the League then it will make it even tougher for your team to win it in the years to come so don't get too excited.

and thats different at the moment for us Marty is it?? I am a true EPL fan, and can clearly see that Arsenal are way off the mark for the EPL title for a few years. If we win it, IF we do in the next 2-3 years as an example i will be surprised

Yeah...i want Man utd to win another piece of silverware, call it envy if you want im not fussed

I will never support Man Utd, like i have always said, even before you actually started winning championships......EVER,

To see them crumble into a heap, would clearly make my day/year./life
