William Saliba is the first Arsenal player to play every minute of a Premier League season since Lee Dixon in 1989/90. He and Wolves Max kilman are the only players to achieve that feat this season.

Saliba reached this milestone when he started and finished the final game of the season in the win over Everton.

The Frenchman has been a fixture for the Arsenal side since his 3 year loan exile. It constitutes a period Arteta decided he wasn’t ready for Premier League football.

Since he came into the side last season, he has been near flawless and relatively ever present for the gunners. Many believe his absence in last season’s run in cost Arsenal the opportunity to win the league last year.

WestHam cannot hold Manchester City to cause final day drama

Much have been made of Saliba’s absence detailing Arsenal’s title chances last season. He is now the first Arsenal player to play every minute of a Premier League season since Lee Dixon.

But his presence on this occasion could not see Arsenal through in their quest for a Premier League title.

It’s now TWENTY years without a Premier League title win since the Invincibles did it in the 2003/04 season.

They needed a huge help from Westham to fulfil their dreams but that would not be against this City side at the Etihad.

Goals from Foden, one as early as the second minute, and another in the twentieth minute sent City on the way. Mohammen Kudus looked to restore some hopes but all rays of that were crushed by the inevitable Rodri.

The Spaniard came up with yet another crucial goal to settle the growing nerves and hand City their Fourth title on the bounce.

This Arsenal side had a chance to be immortals but it’s Manchester City who achieved what has never been.
