As the 2020-2021 season came to an end, it was clear that Arsenal had not performed as well as they had hoped. While they managed to secure the Community Shield trophy, it was the only major domestic trophy they had to add to their cabinet. This was in stark contrast to Manchester United, who had just won the FA Cup final against Manchester City at Wembley, adding to their impressive trophy haul for the season. Liverpool had also claimed the Carabao Cup, while Pep Guardiola's side clinched the Premier League title.
On the final day of the season, Arsenal had a chance to win the top-flight title, but unfortunately, they fell short. Despite this disappointment, the team took to social media to boast about their success in the FA Cup. Just four minutes after United had posted the full-time score, Arsenal shared a post highlighting their record 14 FA Cup wins. They even challenged their followers to name the players who started in each of their seven FA Cup wins since 2000.
While Arsenal may have been proud of their FA Cup history, some fans were not impressed with the timing of their post. United's victory over City meant they were just one FA Cup win behind Arsenal, but instead of acknowledging their rivals' achievement, Arsenal chose to focus on their own success. Fans took to social media to criticize the Gunners, calling their post "embarrassing" and "cringe."
Amidst all the trolling and criticism, there were also fans who congratulated Arsenal on their FA Cup record. However, it was clear that the majority of people were not impressed with the team's social media antics. Some even went as far as to say that the post was the most embarrassing thing to come from a "big" club in recent times. With no trophies to show for the season, many felt that it was not the right time for Arsenal to be boasting about their past success.
In the end, it was clear that Arsenal's season had not gone as well as they had hoped. While they may have won the Community Shield, it was not enough to satisfy their fans and critics. As the summer transfer window approached, there were already rumors circulating about potential changes within the team. Despite the disappointment of this season, Arsenal fans can only hope for a better performance in the future.
