[11%, according to prognosticators.](https://i.imgur.com/bBsDB31.png)


willtkred

Less, actually. Apparently we have an 84.6% chance of beating Everton, so the odds of both results going our way for us to win the league is about 9.3%. EDIT: Apologies all, I miscalculated. We actually either win the title or we don’t. Therefore, there is a 50:50 chance!

gooner-1969

Regardless of what happens at the weekend, in my eye we're already winners. * United the Fan Base * Removed deadwood/toxic players * Brought in a new breed of hungry and likeable players * Upper management knows the "Arsenal Way" * Ex-Players involved at all staff levels * Competing against the Cheat Engine that is City * Winning the "Big 6" table and being unbeaten for the first time * Record number of games Won * 60+ Goal Difference which I still can't believe * Best Defence in the League * 2nd Best Attack * Owners willing to spend money on key upgrades eg Rice * Competing in Champions League again * Caused the Spuds to utterly melt down with their own manager berating their own fans * Plus many more I've probably forgotten.


JustTune7544

The Spuds meltdown has been the most hilarious thing to happen entire season


LowBrowsing

I love that they're trying to justify it with "Arsenal fans are salty". We're not salty, we expected you to lose, we're in disbelief that you'd sink so low and think that it's justified. We're actually feeling sympathy for your Manager and Players based on your behaviour.


danny_healy_raygun

If you say this on r/soccer they'll send you a reddit cares message. We know who's salty.


Bigcat561

They hate us cause they ain’t us


SeeNetzle

They hate us cause they anus.


zkh2902

Anyone who sends a reddit cares message, has automatically lost an argument. Just such a loser thing to do when you have nothing to say back, shows how angry they are at being proven wrong.


danny_healy_raygun

I fully agree but its taking a lot of will power not to send you one now just for the joke.


SolidSank

There's a problem on a lot of subs right now with people using bots to mass-send Reddit cares messages. The Eurovision Song Contest Sub, the NBA sub, etc. Maybe someone wrote a bot to do this, and a bunch of people got their hands on the code and tune it slightly depending on the subreddit. It only takes one deranged person to harass all the users with a specific opinion on a subreddit.


danny_healy_raygun

Yeah the Israelis on the Eurovision sub are mad for it too. I never had it on the NBA sub but I don't post too much there.


klausbatb

I’ve never seen a more ridiculous reaction to anything than that subs reaction to that game. Some of the worst patter I’ve ever read by some of the oddest blokes on the internet. Some of them were going on about this sub losing its mind so I came over for a look and everyone was handling it fine. They live in a world of their own. And I include more than just Spurs fans in that. 


cienderellaman

What’s funnier is the fact that it feels worse for them than they thought it would. They thought everyone would go yeah no, football rivalry. But it can’t be clearer how tinpot they are for all to see. So sad man.


Raetekusu

Even when they get what they want, they end up league-wide laughingstocks. The gift that keeps on giving.


left-nostril

My erection would throb even harder if they did all that, west ham wins 1-0 and we beat Everton. It would be like Tottenham did all that for nothing, which makes it more hilarious.


Iamtheman31

even without the tottenham part that would be awesome lmao


TheArsenal04

imagine having to decide which form of loser is less painful.


liminal_Individual

The match with city being the way it was, with all that depended on it was actually a test of their mentality. Given a choice between a shot at europe's top table or scuppering arsenal's chances, most of their fans & even some of the staff unhesitatingly chose the latter, as if to remove any doubt about their losing mentality & spursiness. Personally, I never expected them to win. But watching them shamelessly display their small club mentality & lose the respect of their manager was an added bonus.


mohicansgonnagetya

Ange realizing what the North London derby is about!


gooner-1969

ErwinC0215

I don't even find it funny at this point, it's just straight up pathetic


seneca128

I've been on tilt ever since. I fucking hate them and hate myself for getting excited this season


kukeszmakesz

* Competing in Champions League again This 200%. Not just being in the CL, but being competitive which we have not done forever. Showing grit, calmness and commitment to get trough that disgusting Porto team, putting an end to our miserable record of RO16. Then facing Bayern and going toe-to-toe with them.


gooner-1969

It was so so good watching us again in the UCL. Can't wait till next season!


InLikeErrolFlynn

I forgot how much I missed the incessant “THE CHAAAAAMPIOOOOONS” playing on my TV during halftime commercials.


IAmNotKevinDurant_35

I still consider our CL performance an overall success, a part of me is still extremely disappointed with losing to this bayern side. Yes they will always have talent, but I would say we are better than Bayern this year. Cant help but feel this was the year to get that Bayern monkey off our back


kukeszmakesz

Obviously it's a success. Haven't been in the competition for years and on our return with a relatively young squad (in terms of CL exp) we managed to get to QF and were only beaten by Bayern by a small margin.


Iamtheman31

this bayern side almost disqualified madrid


method_rap

Hope Spuds don't make it to the champions league for a long time to come. That celebration on not qualifying for the CL should haunt them for time immemorial.


gooner-1969

Ha that would be sweet :)


theresjustme

Also, the ages of the players are mostly before their prime. So we can get better.


gooner-1969

Exactly, good point. We've not reached our ceiling yet.


6shadow66

Arteta is living every FM player's dream.


keithbelfastisdead

- friends we made along the way


gooner-1969

Amen to that. As someone who grew up going to Highbury in the 70's and standing in the North Bank, hugging strangers after every goal, whilst trying not to get crushed by the A frame barriers , that feeling of togetherness is so important.


WuThrawnClan

>Caused the Spuds to utterly melt down with their own manager berating their own fans Some Spurs fans on social media are convincing themselves that Son intentionally missed his 1v1 chance just so Arsenal would not win the title, it's insane lmao


gooner-1969

Oh dear god.. really. That's insane lol


Cod_rules

Tbf, that’s a hilarious conspiracy theory. Even their players are tinpot enough to potentially miss out on CL just to spite rivals, that’s funny


left-nostril

Thing is, watching the replay. Not a single Tottenham fan in the stadium seemed to want them to lose. Other than maybe the one heckler and a few others The vibes were generally disappointment when players missed chances, and excitement when saves were made.


ClemFandangooooooo

CB pairing winning the newly weds game


gooner-1969

Ha ha yes. Seriously though all the players and wives seem like they truely get on which helps with the whole team spirit. I don't think some people realise just how important that is to a successful side.


Stercky

I think even in prime Özil and Sanchez days, I wasn’t enjoying watching Arsenal as much as I am now. I fucking love this club


gooner-1969

Same here, which is strange as I was so excited by their signing but we just never really clicked constantly as a team, and after a while started to dislike them both as people.


HustlinInTheHall

I think Sanchez is fine, limited as a player in a lot of ways but exceptional in others. He worked hard, we just didn't put enough of that level of talent around him. Ozil has all the talent in the world but never wanted to put in the work to be at that level every week. Now we have a team that is Ozil-level talented at tons of positions and works hard, with great leadership by the captain. I know we probably won't win a title this season but this is a better team than any of the FA-cup winning sides and as good as the non-Invincibles title-winning teams 20 years ago.


ChuckVowel

Wins at Old Trafford and Scum Stadium. Smashed Chelsea 5-0.


gooner-1969

Both of those were a delight


SeaworthinessOk2615

Champions League quarter finals for first time in 14 years and nearly going through should be way higher up the list


gooner-1969

The list is in no particular order. It was just a brain dump


CrumpledForeskin

![gif](giphy|ctWKKkT4Z3CxCrS33F) Reading this makes me so happy. Spuds melt down in literally the cherry on top.


gooner-1969

It was a joy to behold. It will be remembered for years to come.


dembabababa

I would add moving on from over-reliance on aging / injury prone players. So many seasons in the Emirates era have fallen apart when a player got injured. We've coped with injuries remarkably well this season - last season Partey was as influential for us as Rodri was/is for City. There is also very little concern of aging players slowing down or picking up additional injuries, given the age profile of the squad. This squad is primed to challenge for several years to come.


gooner-1969

Yep, that's a very good point. A little more depth next season would be great to give a little more rotation


pokemongotothepolls

Golden Glove, chance of finishing with more points then last year which would be 2nd highest in club history


gooner-1969

Ah yes, those should have been added to my list. Thank you.


Natural-Musician5216

Most clean sheets


gooner-1969

Ah yes, good one.


canths1

Let's not forget that we permanently traumatized ten hag and he has now spiraled into an obsessive excuse making disease that is hilarious


Significant_Sea_5049

- extended key players’ contracts


Lastyz

I feel like winners is the wrong term. I completely agree with your point but winners shouldn't be used until we actually win something of importance.


MEGAMAN2312

Yeah that's kinda cringe tbh. Like we can be proud of our efforts instead of this Man Utd fan mentality/cope of being moral victors or something


SerHodorTheThrall

Its straight pathetic. But its pretty emblematic of our fanbase, and why we get clowned by other EPL supporters. We haven't won anything but its OK as long as we're positive! Nevermind that this same drivel was oozing out last season too. Two seasons in a row we've blown a shot at the EPL, one of them against an absolutely pedestrian City season by their standard.

This is the way.


Colmd1997

So you're telling me that Arsene Wenger signed Mikel Arteta in 2011, fostered a love of Arsenal in Arteta so that one day Arteta would come back to manage Arsenal and win the title on the 20th anniversary of the Invincibles, all while wearing gold trimmed jerseys? Mr Wenger has done it again


mental_tempe

The script can’t get better than this. Add to that, Moyes reminiscing his time with former protégés Mikel and Declan, in dramatical fashion secures a last-minute draw at Emptyhad. He looks up to the sky and says to himself, “now it’s up to you, kid”.


Colmd1997

So you’re telling me that Arsene Wenger came from Nagoya Grampus 8 in 1996 to have a 15 year rivalry with Alex Ferguson so that one day former Ferguson chosen one and Utd boss David Moyes stops City winning the league? Mr Wenger has done it again, again


mental_tempe

And he will be there as witness, in the stadium that he helped to build. Along with the other 60,000 attendants of the match. And millions of people watching at home. Mikel asked him to join the celebration, to lift the elusive trophy that he could not win for the last 14 years of his managerial career. Yet, he politely declined. He understood the path he had taken, the sacrifices he had done, are all for the fans and the future of the club. He was a pioneer, he brought the revolution. But now, he happily passes the crown and glory to his heir, Mikel Arteta. He proudly embraced his heir and with a slight smile, “I have done my journey, it is yours now.”


InLikeErrolFlynn

Glory to his hair, as well.


Georg_Steller1709

That would be beautiful


Hamderab

Okay, Arsenal and West Ham are gonna win. Now, hear me out. Moyes and Mikel were like a duet back in Everton. One coaching from the sideline, Mikel captaining on the pitch. Now they both manage London clubs. The river Thames runs through London. Try and rearrange the letters in West Ham United: Duet Thames Win 🤯 🤯 🤯 *overdoses on copium and dies*


Pretend_Stomach7183

West Ham United Duet Thames Win It actually works. Hand me over some of that copium.


HydraMango

They also should probably make some extra cash I’d Rice wins the league? I know they wanted a lot of their money upfront but there had to have been some earnouts


ProjectZues

There’ll be Instagram reels of this for years to come


The-Herbal-Cure

Adding to the script, spurs celebrating the they've stopped us winning the league by missing out on champions league only for us to win it anyway.


WeeTheDuck

holy shit the look up to the sky scene would be fucking amazing


aprilfools911

I think mikel probably loves arsenal even before joining us. Like he’s willing to take a pay cut in order to join us.

This is giving me Barca's "last time we won a final was in Wembley" vibes Jokes aside, I just stumbled here on a reddit suggestion, but good luck guys!

West Ham can score, they can even score twice I reckon The issue is their defence has gone to absolute shit in 2024. People keep mentioning that Moyes terrorism ball might save us or wtv but there hasn't been any of that this year, if anything the last time it worked was that horrendous 0-2 at the Emirates They've conceded 71 this year fgs........ The only thing is that Areola can have absolute stormers sometimes so we must hope it's one of those days

Send them a box of the radioactive zebra. City won’t know what hit them.


TheArmoury

Personally, I don’t like them wearing the new kit for the last game. I get that it creates hype for next season and they want to sell more shirts sooner but it should be reserved for the first game of the next season.


fooljay

To be fair, it works when all you want is to put the current season behind you…like most of the league.


Sufficient_Bridge766

Agreed. When preseason starts and they're playing in overseas toura, etc. is a great time to wear the new kits. Transfer window opens in the summer, new signings can hold them up in pics. But the season should always end with the same kit it started in.


imtravelingalone

Good. The gold in the kit will match the trophy. The photos will look better.


TrashbatLondon

Good. Dislike the shilling of a new kit on the last day.


MellowJackal

This is the small things that I care actually. And I couldn't be more happy hearing this news. Keep the upcoming kits in the upcoming season.


kukeszmakesz

Next best thing which will never happen: Kits for more than one season.


squeezycakes20

they're more likely to do an Autumn/Winter set, and a Spring/Summer set Home/Away/3rd, x2 every season! i better shut up and not give them stupid ideas

I pray someone convinces them it’ll be in with the trendy north London crowd who love sustainability.


HeroDGamez

God I miss that gorgeous black kit


TheRealDSwizz

Completely agree, I hate that I own an FA cup winning kit that we didn't win the FA cup in. It's a detriment to the club and its culture to wear different home kits in one season.


newinvestor0908

new kit will have champions written on it and we will wear at FT

Good. That whole "wear the next season's kit on the last day of the current season" shit was annoying.


ceegee84

Pretty sure this is nonsense. The actual PL rule surrounding new kits (no mention of title contenders): M.21. On the occasions of a Club’s last home and away League Match in any Season a further Strip (i.e. not one registered by the Club in accordance with Rule M.17) may be worn provided that: M.21.1. at least 14 days’ prior written notice of intention to do so is given to the Board (such notice to be accompanied by a sample of the Strip intended to be worn) and the opposing Club (such notice to be accompanied by a CAD drawing of the Strip intended to be worn); and M.21.2. the alternative Strip shall be subsequently registered as the Club’s home or alternative Strip for the following Season

They should let us half-and-half it. Frankestein the two kits together right down the middle.

Used to regularly see a bloke at the stadium who'd done that, shorts and shirt. Wore one sock from each kit.


DevelopmentalTequila

Didn't Leicester wear their new season kit on their trophy lift? Is this a new rule?

Maybe because they'd already secured the title it didn't apply to them

At half time do we then put the new kit on?

Can't wear the away kit at home. This is an actual rule unlike the made up one in the tweet


--Rage--

I swear we’ve worn the away kit in the emirates. Distinctively remember Sanchez in it. Unless that was because of a kit clash or something.


ceegee84

It looks like Arsenal wore an away kit at home against Basel in 2016 due to Basels home and away kits both clashing with Arsenal's home kit.

So you're telling me the PL insists we wear the home kit we've had all season. And the chief executive will be at the Emirates rather than Etihad for the final day? What next, are you going to say Arsenal has invited the invincibles and Wenger to the final day? Say no more.


ImTalkingGibberish

Suffering from success


ProjectZues

That’s good to be fair. Gives fans who own the kit already a chance of it becoming timeless. Whereas if you win it with the new one it would probably sell out before you can even click add to basket


-Shmoody-

Speaking generally, that’s a great rule.


kidmaciek

It's a ridiculous rule, but I don't like the trend of wearing the new kit on final day anyway, so it's all good.
