It wasn't the dramatic moment they had envisioned, but that hardly matters in the grand scheme of things.
Arsenal clinched the Premier League title for the first time in 22 years while watching from home, after Manchester City could only manage a 1–1 draw against Bournemouth on Tuesday night. The disappointing result handed the Gunners a four-point cushion at the top of England's top flight, making it mathematically impossible for second-place City to overturn the deficit before the final weekend of the season.
Though denied a pitch-side celebration, Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta and his squad still expressed tremendous excitement across social media to mark their historic achievement.

Arsenal kicked things off by sharing an uplifting three-minute video on X, captioned "This belongs to all of us." The clip features season highlights, spotlighting players and supporters while offering a behind-the-scenes glimpse into the team's personalities and the jubilant scenes that unfolded in the dressing room.
The video begins with iconic French manager Arsène Wenger saying, "You did it. Champions go on when others stop. This is your time. Now, go on and enjoy." Wenger, Arsenal's longest-serving manager in club history who guided the famous "Invincibles" side to their last title in 2004, then raises a glass of red wine in a toast to the team.
The Players Share Joyful Reactions
Many of the players gathered together to celebrate the occasion, including star striker Kai Havertz, midfielder Declan Rice, winger Bukayo Saka, fullback Myles Lewis-Skelly, and center back William Saliba.
The 27-year-old Rice posted a group photo of the smiling squad on Instagram, captioned "I told you all ... it's done [trophy emoji] [red heart emoji]," a nod to his now-famous post-match declaration from last month — "It's not done" — after Arsenal fell 2–1 to Man City, a result many had viewed as a serious blow to the Gunners' title hopes.
Arsenal subsequently posted a video capturing the entire squad's reaction to the Man City draw, showing everyone assembled at the Sobha Center, the club's training ground. The moment the final whistle sounded, players and staff erupted in screams and leapt into the air before coming together in one massive group huddle to revel in the triumph.

The players then broke into a rousing rendition of Queen's "We are the Champions."
Former Arsenal midfielder Mohamed Elneny took to social media to express his heartfelt emotions: "I can't describe my feelings right now … Football always gives back to those who keep believing. To the fans who kept believing, you deserve this … Arsenal; the club that will stay in my heart forever, you deserve this … The players and everyone at the club who made it happen, you deserve this ... Congratulations to the best club in the world."
Elneny currently plays in the UAE Pro League, having left the north London club in 2024 after more than eight years of service.
A number of former Arsenal players and devoted supporters, including well-known English television personality Piers Morgan, also joined in the online celebrations.
