Arsenal supporter and broadcaster Piers Morgan has delivered an impassioned message to his club, expressing both anxiety and excitement as the Gunners push for their first Premier League triumph in more than 20 years.
Speaking in a recent Sky Sports interview, Morgan reflected on his lifelong connection with Arsenal and the decades-long wait since the club last lifted the title.
He recalled witnessing glory from an early age, noting that his earliest memories of success dated back to the famous league and cup double in 1971.
Over the years, he said, Arsenal fans enjoyed an era in which major titles arrived almost routinely—particularly under George Graham and later Arsène Wenger, whose teams dominated English football and produced some of the club’s greatest-ever sides.
But following the Invincibles season in 2003/04, he lamented, the silverware dried up as rivals such as Chelsea and Manchester United surged ahead.
For Morgan, the prolonged title drought—now approaching 22 years—has been a “torment”, especially after Arsenal finished as runners-up in three consecutive seasons despite coming agonisingly close.
With Mikel Arteta’s current squad now mounting another strong title push, Morgan said the anticipation feels different.
He believes the present group is the strongest Arsenal have assembled in his lifetime outside the early 1970s and the Invincibles era, praising the depth, unity, and professionalism within the team.
He highlighted stars such as Bukayo Saka, Declan Rice, William Saliba and Gabriel as players capable of achieving legendary status if the team can finally finish the job.
Morgan added that several of them could even compete for places in a combined XI with the Invincibles—something he considers extraordinary.
Morgan also acknowledged his past doubts over Arteta’s early tenure but said the manager has now built a squad in his own image, with discipline, hunger and collective commitment at the heart of the project.
With Arsenal firmly in the title race, Morgan delivered an emotional plea: for the team to seize the moment and for rival clubs to “stay quiet” while the Gunners push for the crown.
Winning the league this season, he said, could even spark a new period of sustained dominance.
Calling the campaign “the biggest one yet”, Morgan admitted he is fully swept up in the moment.
“I’m in love,” he concluded, describing the passion and hope shared by millions of Arsenal supporters worldwide.
