Arsenal break incredible record - Even the Invincibles didn’t manage to do this!
Have we realized what Arsenal are doing this year, inside 2024? It really is an "epic". An amazing second round. They have played 17 games and managed to win 15 of them.

Counts a "white" draw with Manchester City at the "Etihad" and the defeat by Aston Villa at the "Emirates". It is amazing. They have recorded 11 clean sheets away from home and nine successive successes away from North London.
They have not lost a derby, they have overcome all kinds of difficult games and to reach 89 points in this year's Premier League, without having been defeated by a Big 6 team in the entire season. Manchester City won the championship last year with so many points, while the Gunners may lose it this year.
Nevertheless, massive credit is due to Mikel Arteta's side, who won for the second time in their last 16 visits to Old Trafford. A goal from Leandro Trossard was enough as Arsenal celebrated their club-record 27th win of the season.
Not even the Invincibles had done it. Mikel Arteta's team, however, succeeded! And rightfully so, they claim the title from Manchester City, with a tally that only goes back to 1970-71, when they took the title with 29 hat-tricks.
So, do Arsenal deserve the championship? Maybe. But in any case, this year's edition, based on numbers, is the best in the 21st century. And maybe even that won't be enough...
