'The first in my lifetime' - Arsenal fans rejoice after shedding 'bottlers' tag

Arsenal fans have descended on Emirates Stadium since winning their first league title for 22 years

Arsenal supporters flooded the streets of north London after the club ended a 22-year wait for the Premier League title.

Wild scenes took place outside Emirates Stadium - following Manchester City's 1-1 draw at Bournemouth on Tuesday night - as fans toasted the much-awaited triumph.

Three consecutive second-placed finishes contributed to a nervy title run-in - but the outpouring of emotion of making it fourth time lucky made for spectacular scenes.

And because of the length of time that has passed since the Gunners last lifted the league title, it has meant that many of the club's fans had never seen them win England's top prize.

Club legend and fan Ian Wright, who helped start the party outside the Emirates on Tuesday night, was 40 when Arsenal last won the Premier League, but for some supporters it was a new experience.

"It doesn't get much better than this," 22-year-old Dylan White said. "...first time in 22 years, more or less the first time in my life. When we last lifted the Premier League, I was about three weeks old.

"It's surreal - I've never experienced this before and now, we're finally here over the line after so many years of coming so close and to celebrate with all of our friends.

"I've always wanted to experience it for myself because you hear stories of Arsenal back in 89, you hear stories of the Invincibles, but getting to experience it ourselves... it's been mental.

"We were wondering if it'd be better to celebrate it at an actual game, but doing it with all of our mates in north London last night and being outside of the ground until 4am, as you can tell, I've lost my voice.

"It feels like life has peaked as an Arsenal fan."

It could still get a lot better for Arsenal fans when the Gunners take on Paris St-Germain in the final of the Champions League - their first for 20 years - in Budapest on Saturday 30 May.

"It could be a mega few weeks," Dylan added.

"The best is still yet to come with the Champions League. People are really about to see, if they haven't already, how big Arsenal Football Club are. It's just long overdue. I'm glad it's silenced a lot of the critics."

Following Tuesday night's celebrations, supporters continue to flock to the stadium to buy next season's kit with "champions" written on the back.

And for Dominic, who was alive to see Arsenal's previous three Premier League victories, it was nice to have the familiar feeling of success back.

"This is how we're used to feeling." he said. "Used to being the winners, back on the podiums where we belong.

"I was a lot of younger back then. Primary school probably? It was a long time ago.

"We've been waiting patiently and obviously we've got it at the end. And I think this is the start of a very new generation.

"Big Gabi, [William] Saliba, there's a lot of years left in this team. Trust me, we're going to be winning for a long time coming."

But even though Arsenal is a club with a rich history, Dominic is still shocked it took them 22 years to win the league again.
