Arsenal Are Champions. I Was There. And I Can't Stop Crying

Su questo episodio

<p>Arsenal Football Club are Premier League champions for the first time in 22 years. A generation of fans who weren't born the last time this happened are now old enough to drink, vote, and cry in the streets of North London. And that's exactly what tens of thousands of them did on the night of May 19th, 2026.</p><p>Marvin was one of them.</p><br><p>In this episode, Marvin breaks down everything, the night itself, what he saw at Emirates Stadium, why this title hits different to any trophy, and what it actually took to get here. From Arteta's first press conference ("commitment is essential, there's no way you're going to survive here without giving 100%") to three consecutive runner-up finishes that would have broken a lesser squad, to the nine-point lead that nearly evaporated in eleven days, this is the full story.</p><p>He also gets into: the squad rebuild needed this summer, why Zubimendi might be a problem next year, why Saliba and Gabriel need to stay for at least three more years, the Trent Alexander-Arnold question, what David Raya's golden glove means, why the Arsenal fanbase is unlike anything else in London, and why Kroenke, once booed by every fan in the ground, might be the hidden asset nobody's talking about.</p><p>Plus: Marvin accidentally ended up on Australian breakfast TV celebrating in the streets. Nobody has the clip. Yet.</p><p>If you've been waiting 22 years for this, this episode is for you.</p><br><p><strong>Acast:</strong> https://shows.acast.com/discover-with-marvyn-harrison</p><p><strong>Apple Podcasts:</strong> https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-marvyn-harrison-podcast/id1531924169</p><p><strong>Spotify:</strong> https://open.spotify.com/show/0vgJd0NT9uEUYYON5k2RDf</p><p><strong>YouTube:</strong> https://www.youtube.com/@DiscoverWithMarvyn</p><p><strong>Instagram (main):</strong> https://www.instagram.com/discoverwithmarvyn</p><p><strong>Instagram (Dope Black Dads):</strong> https://www.instagram.com/dopeblackdads</p><p><strong>TikTok:</strong> https://www.tiktok.com/@marvyn_harrison</p><p><strong>X:</strong> @Marvyn_Harrison</p><p><strong>LinkedIn:</strong> https://www.linkedin.com/in/marvynharrison</p><p><strong>Substack:</strong> https://marvynharrison.substack.com</p><p><strong>Website:</strong> https://marvynharrison.co.uk</p><p>Welcome to <strong>The Marvyn Harrison Podcast</strong> — a story-driven conversation exploring identity, fatherhood, masculinity, relationships, culture, politics, sport, and modern life.</p><p>In each episode, Marvyn Harrison sits down with leading thinkers, creatives, athletes, policymakers, and cultural voices to unpack the defining moments that shaped them.
