The 2022-23 campaign delivered a season of spectacular resurgence for the Gunners as they surged to a superb 2nd-place finish in the Premier League, securing a long-awaited return to the UEFA Champions League. Leading the charge were the sensational Martin Ødegaard and Gabriel Martinelli, who each netted 15 league goals in a campaign built on youthful exuberance and attacking flair. It was a year of incredible progress that saw Arsenal lead the table for a record 248 days, and it remains a defining chapter in the Mikel Arteta rebuild.
