Arsenal's Invincibles: 26 wins, 12 draws, no defeats, 49 unbeaten
Post
๐ฐ In 2003/04 Arsenal went through the entire league season unbeaten, earning the name "The Invincibles".
๐ Key points
๐ Arsenal won the 2003/04 title with 26 wins, 12 draws and no defeats.
๐ They finished on 90 points.
๐ Their unbeaten league run stretched to 49 matches.
โฝ Thierry Henry led the way with 30 league goals.
๐งข It was Arsรจne Wenger's crowning achievement at Highbury.
๐ What happened
๐ Wenger's Arsenal won 26 and drew 12 of their 38 Premier League games without losing once โ the first unbeaten top-flight season in England since Preston North End in 1888/89.
๐๏ธ The title was sealed with a 2-2 draw at Tottenham on 25 April 2004, which made it even sweeter for the supporters.
โฝ Henry scored 30 league goals and 39 in all competitions. Jens Lehmann arrived in goal, and Josรฉ Antonio Reyes was signed mid-season.
๐ The unbeaten league run lasted 49 matches, from May 2003 to October 2004. The cups were less kind: semi-final exits in the FA Cup and League Cup, and a Champions League quarter-final defeat.
๐ By the numbers
