Arsenal fans have wasted no time in claiming Friday’s 2-0 win at Crystal Palace is proof they will win the Premier League.
As no other side has played, the Gunners have rocketed to the top of the league courtesy of Gabriel Martinelli and an own goal – leading Arsenal fans at Selhurst Park to sing ‘We are top of the league’.
On Twitter, the club’s passionate fans think they’ve seen enough to know the result come May – and questioning if there is any reason to play the remaining 379 fixtures.

‘Arsenal gonna make it to Champions League Next Year Mark my words,’ one fan wrote.
‘Arsenal is on fire’, one fan noted, before hailing the work of French centre-back William Saliba. ‘Saliba is such an incredible player’, they stated, after keeping a Premier League clean sheet for the first time since March.

If the Gunners are to use this start to push them on to a successful season, they must first navigate their opening home game next Saturday against Leicester City – a team with more recent experience of lifting the trophy at the end of the campaign.
