Manchester City sealed the Premier League title on Saturday, as Arsenal’s shock 1-0 loss at Nottingham Forest ended any lingering mathematical probability of the north London team usurping Pep Guardiola’s side in the title race. Arsenal awarded City the Premier League title on a plate of gold after surprisingly falling in the last rounds of the Premier League competition. What is the reason behind Arsenal's failure to win the Premier League despite playing attractive football? According to Opta statistics, Arsenal topped the English Premier League table for 248 days in 2022-2023, which is the largest number of days for a team that failed to win the title in the history of the English Premier League.
The defeat effectively ended Arsenal's dream of winning the Premier League title, after its score stopped at 81 points, with which it ranks second in the standings, 4 points behind Manchester City, and only one match remains.
The beginning of Arsenal's fall came when lost against Manchester City 4-1, and then retreated after that in several losses, including Brighton 3-0, and before that a tie with Liverpool, Southampton, and West Ham, so that the series of wasting points continues.
