-Only three defeats and 26 victories: with such a record, it would have been difficult not to claim the title!
-Arsenal finished their Premiership season in style with an unprecedented 13 wins in a row.
(Ever since their 1-1 draw against Southampton on February the 2nd, the side has won every single of their remaining games including wins at Manchester United, Newcastle and against London rivals Chelsea and Spurs.)
-Arsenal have scored in every single match of the Premiership season.
-An undefeated away record and only three teams can boast having beaten the Champions at Highbury: Newcastle, Leeds and Charlton.
I'm still smiling after the weekend's celebrations but it's going to be a long summer without Arsenal to keep me busy!
This is from the Arsenal website:
-----
Arsenal won the 'double' last night in the most emphatic way - by setting a slew of new records.
The Gunners became the first team to go through the top-flight unbeaten since Preston North End in 1888-89 - although Preston only played 11 games away from home as opposed to Arsenal's 19.
Arsène Wenger's men also set a new club record of 12 consecutive league victories - which equals the current Premiership record set by Manchester United in the 1999-2000 season.
The club record for consecutive away wins has also been broken, with Arsenal now taking maximum points from their last eight games.
Sylvain Wiltord's goal - in his 100th appearance for the Gunners - has also kept up the record-breaking run of scoring in every Premiership game. Arsenal have not failed to find the back of the net in their last 37 games.
And they've also extended the record for scoring first in Premiership games - a total of 27 this season.
Arsenal won their third 'double' exactly 31 years to the day since they won their first, when they beat Liverpool 2-1 at Wembley in the F.A. Cup.
And this is only the third time that Arsenal have beaten Manchester United at Old Trafford since Alex Ferguson was instated as manager (previously in 1990-91 and 1997-98); on each occasion, the Gunners have gone on to win the title.

Of course, that itself is now out of date, because we also scored in the last game, against Everton. So that's all 38 games of the Premiership.
Also, of course, there were only TWO domestic games in which we didn't score. One was the Worthless Cup against Blackburn, which we lost 4-0. The other was the FA Cup Semi Final against Middlesbrough, in which (technically at least) we didn't score the winning goal.
