Arsenal End 22-Year Wait in Super League Table Title Run — Super League Table

Arsenal won the super league table and closed out the 2025-26 Premier League title after three straight second-place finishes. The league crown ends a 22-year wait and gives Mikel Arteta the result his side had been chasing through years of near-misses.

Arteta’s Arsenal Finish the Job

The title arrived after Arsenal beat Newcastle United, West Ham United and Burnley 1-0, a run that came after the 2-1 defeat at Manchester City. Those narrow wins kept the pressure off at the right time and carried Arsenal through the decisive stretch of the season.

Arsenal’s season also featured 19 clean sheets. That number tells the story of a side that did not need to run up scores to stay on top; it protected margins and kept results under control when games tightened.

Zubimendi, Eze and Gyokeres

Martin Zubimendi was crucial to Arsenal’s early-season form, while Eberechi Eze supplied important goals. Viktor Gyokeres added nine goals in 2026, giving Arsenal another source of end product when the title race demanded it.

The balance of the side mattered because the league reward was built over months, not a single burst. Arsenal had finished second in each of the previous three seasons, so this title turns repeated frustration into a finish line finally crossed.

Liverpool and City Trail

Liverpool entered the season as the pick of Opta and 13 of the writers, so Arsenal’s title also overturned the preseason view of how the table would look. Liverpool kept the extra Champions League slot just about, but the title never reached them after Arsenal held firm.

Manchester City are left without a seventh Premier League title in nine years, and Pep Guardiola will leave without adding to that total. City had finished third in 2024-25, a season that was already framed as another year of transition, but Arsenal’s run ended with the trophy instead of another chase.
