Over the years, Arsenal have been renowned for getting the virtual fourth place trophy. This season, the Gunners have finished runners up thanks to a disaster performance by Tottenham on the final day of the season.
The North London is Red yet again and Arsenal fans are celebrating as if they have won a title.
Going into the final day of the Premier League campaign, Tottenham were two points clear of their arch rivals and had to play a relegated side in the form of Newcastle.
On the other hand, Arsenal faced another relegated side, Aston Villa at home.
Mauricio Pochettino’s men were comfortably leading the Gunners as far as the goal difference is concerned and they only needed a draw against the Magpies to secure second place finish.
However, Rafael Benitez’ side turned on the heat at St. James’ park and sealed an emphatic 5-1 victory much to the despair of the traveling supporters.
Arsenal won their game against Villa 4-0 and once again finished above Tottenham. Their fans are in a frenzy and are mocking Spurs non-stop.
Here are a few tweets.
Tottenham’s closest season to winning a PL trophy and they somehow manage to lose 5-1 vs Newcastle & finish below Arsenal. Hilarious.

Quite right they’re celebrating.
This entire season has been about how BRILLIANT Spurs are and what shambles Arsenal are.
Well – Spurs BEST is not better than Arsenal’s WORST! FACT!!!!
Laughing all summer long now!
PS to burst another myth – Arsene Wenger has finished more times 1st or 2nd than he has ever done finishing 4th!
And for another fact – Wenger has won more titles that Spurs entire history. And has finished 2nd more times than Spurs entire history.
But hey – Spurs are great this year, right? LMFAO
Tottenham supporters at the beginning of the season thought they might be challenging for fourth but more likely 5th-7th, Spurs have made it into the CL proper.
Arsenal supporters thought they were going to win the league, they didn’t and still they moan about their manager, lack of spending and no success in Europe, it is never ending.
Tottenham have done better than they thought so success,
Arsenal have done worse than they thought so failure.
This was the spuds best year in over 2 decades and they still fin below a below par Arsenal XD
Priceless.
