Revealed: How Arsenal remain only club with the best achievement in English football

The Invincibles, Arsenal’s unbeaten team of the 2003-04 season, have long been considered one of the greatest achievements in English football. However, after Manchester City’s treble-winning season in 2022-23, The Invincibles now stand alone as the only achievement to never be matched in English football.

Arsenal were in a fierce title race with Manchester City throughout the 2022-23 Premier League season. The Gunners had led the league table for 10 months but a defeat against Nottingham Forest in their 37th game week saw them lose the trophy to The Citizens. Arsenal ended the season with 84 points while Manchester City finished with 89 points, making them this year’s Premier League Champions.

Despite falling short of winning the Premier League title, Arsenal can take solace in their impressive performances throughout the season. They had some standout players like Bukayo Saka and Emile Smith Rowe who shone for them throughout the campaign. However, it was not enough to stop Manchester City from clinching their third consecutive Premier League title.

Manchester City’s treble-winning season is a remarkable achievement that will go down in history. They won the Premier League and FA Cup before defeating Inter Milan in the UEFA Champions League final to complete their treble. This feat matches that of Manchester United’s treble-winning team of the 1990s.

Manchester City’s success this season can be attributed to their depth and quality across all areas of their squad. They have some world-class players like Kevin De Bruyne and Haaland who have consistently performed at a high level throughout the campaign. Their manager Pep Guardiola has also played a crucial role in their success by implementing his unique style of play that has proven effective against even top teams.

While Manchester City’s treble-winning season is an incredible achievement, it is important to note that The Invincibles still hold a special place in English football history. Arsenal’s unbeaten run of 49 games is a feat that has never been matched and may never be matched again. It is a testament to the quality of players and the team spirit that they had during that season.

In conclusion, Manchester City’s treble-winning season is an incredible achievement that will go down in history. However, The Invincibles still hold a special place in English football history as the only achievement to never be matched. It is a reminder of the greatness that can be achieved through hard work, dedication, and teamwork.
