Manchester City's inability to defeat Bournemouth on Tuesday night officially crowned the Gunners as Premier League champions, sparking an emotional eruption across North London. This monumental achievement finally ends a two-decade drought, fulfilling the dreams of a generation of supporters.
Victory's Sweetest Revenge: The 'Bottlers' Respond
The narrative of Arsenal "bottling" their title challenge has been a persistent thorn in the club's side for years. Now, with the Premier League trophy secured, young midfielder Myles Lewis-Skelly seized the perfect moment for a cutting retort. In a widely shared clip on Saka’s Instagram, Lewis-Skelly, champagne bottle in hand, declared: "They called us bottlers, and now we're holding the bottles!" This powerful statement perfectly encapsulated the team's vindication.
From Mockery to Majesty: Saka's Fiery Message
The celebratory mood continued as Bukayo Saka joined Jurrien Timber's social media. After three consecutive seasons of heartbreaking near-misses, the England international made it unequivocally clear that the Gunners are enjoying the ultimate last laugh. "Let me tell you something, 22 years, they were laughing and joking, they’re not laughing anymore, look, it’s going to be shining," Saka proclaimed. This direct message was aimed squarely at those who even sold mocking "Arsenal" labelled water bottles outside the Etihad Stadium throughout the season.
Unleashed Joy: Inside the Gunners' Celebrations
Scenes of pure elation unfolded at London Colney, reflecting the immense relief and pride within the squad. The drought, stretching back to the iconic 'Invincibles' season of 2003-04, had finally broken. While players revelled behind closed doors, outside the Emirates Stadium, legendary figure Ian Wright led thousands of fans in jubilant chants, marking a truly historic occasion. This season, under Mikel Arteta, the squad displayed unwavering resilience, maintaining their composure against a relentless Manchester City side to secure the elusive silverware.
Double Dream: European Glory Awaits Arteta's Men
The celebrations are far from over. This Sunday, Saka, Lewis-Skelly, and their teammates will officially receive their winners' medals. They will lift the coveted Premier League trophy after their final league match against London rivals Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park, sharing the moment with their travelling supporters. Following domestic triumph, the focus immediately shifts to Europe. Arsenal stands on the cusp of a historic double, facing Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League final on May 30th – a truly remarkable potential capstone to an unforgettable season.
