Can Arsenal win all the Major trophies in one season?
The moment Mikel Arteta took over in December 2019, Arsenal started to rise and a huge amount of improvement was seen. Certainly, after going through a rough period, the rebuilding in the hands of Arteta and Edu finally turned them into a force. However, one thing which has eluded this set of players along with Mikel Arteta is winning a major trophy.
Notwithstanding a season impaled by Covid-19, he succeeded in winning the FA Cup in his first season. Since then, Arteta has won two Community Shields, but Arsenal have finished second twice in the Premier League, qualifying for the UCL in back-to-back seasons after missing out for six seasons. The general points total under Arteta has been on a steep upward trajectory, from 56 points in the 2019-20 season to 61 points in 2020-21, then to 69 points in 2021-22, 84 points in 2022-23, and 89 points last season. Are we on course to get even more this season.
The Arsenal defence has been its best attribute since last season. With the likes of Gabriel, Saliba, White, Timber, Tomiyasu, and new signing Calafiori, Arsenal can defend their way to winning titles. As they always say: “Attack wins you games, but defence wins you titles.”
As of August 2024, under Arteta, Arsenal has managed to score 453 goals and concede 246 in 232 games across all competitions. They have scored in excess of 250 goals in the Premier League alone. With the strong momentum they have built through their defensive record in conjunction with consistency in attack, this season now looks very set to possibly be a shot at real titles for Arsenal.
After all, they do say, “Attack wins you games, but defence wins you titles.”
Do you think Arsenal can go all the way to win numerous trophies this season? Unlikely, but certainly not impossible….

I wish we can start by winning the carabao cup since it comes early and will give us alot of confidence to go on and challenge for even bigger trophies come end of the season!
Hashim…the final five words of your article answered your question.
This as well as your previous Saka article…c’mon now.
Can and will have different meanings
Arsenal can win all the trophies and can be invincible this season. We haven’t got to the point where a cup game has mattered and the league has a long way to go
Will we is another matter entirely and there is virtually zero chance of that happening.
As mentioned above, the Carabao Cup would be a start. Winning brings confidence and starts the ball rolling but ko competitions can depend on the draw to a large extent
Well, nothing is impossible I guess, and we can dream about it but, realistically, it’s highly unlikely to say the least.
Arsenal haven’t won any trophy since the F A Cup back in 2019 so “even” one trophy would be sufficient this season. If Arsenal really goes for all the trophies, they risk ending up with none in my opinion.
I think that their main objective has to be the EPL title having come so close in previous seasons. The time for concentrating on domestic cups – getting that “winning mentality” installed into the players – was after the initial cup win under Arteta. That didn’t happen and, unfortunately, there are very few “winners” in the Arsenal squad now as a result which could help account for the near misses in the league.
Failure to win the title for a third consecutive season would be a huge disappointment and could have on-going repercussions. I don’t think a domestic cup would be much of a consolation in those circumstances.
Yes it’s possible, but it’s not going to happen the law of average makes the probability a razor thin chance, but have witnessed things like the Leicester league win in my life time.
That’s all it will be sadly, just one big dream that could turn into a nightmare. Sleep well people.
