Arsenal's Invincibles Go the Entire Season Unbeaten
A Historic Achievement
The Gunners pulled off the stunning feat of becoming the first team since Preston North End in 1889 to go the entire season unbeaten in the league. Despite drawing 12 matches, Arsenal had the league wrapped up by late April after a draw at White Hart Lane against Tottenham. They eventually finished 11 points ahead of Chelsea and 15 points ahead of Manchester United.An Aura of Invincibility
The win meant Arsenal had gone half the season without losing, and the team had begun to establish an aura of invincibility, according to The Times. Arsenal ended the calendar year unbeaten, and after becoming the only team to finish a 38-match season unbeaten, the Premier League commissioned a unique gold trophy to commemorate the achievement.
