During the 1996–97 season, Arsenal finished 3rd in the Premier League under newly appointed manager Arsène Wenger, narrowly missing out on Champions League qualification. The club exited early from all cup competitions—FA Cup, League Cup, and UEFA Cup—despite strong performances from Ian Wright, who scored 30 goals across all competitions. The season marked a transitional phase, with key signings like Patrick Vieira and Nicolas Anelka joining the squad, and the team showing promise under Wenger’s emerging philosophy.

In the 1997–98 season, Arsenal achieved a historic domestic double under Arsène Wenger, winning both the Premier League and the FA Cup. It was Wenger’s first full season in charge, and the team overcame a 12-point deficit to surpass Manchester United with a ten-match winning streak. Key signings like Marc Overmars and Emmanuel Petit proved pivotal, while Dennis Bergkamp led the scoring charts and earned both the PFA Players’ Player of the Year and FWA Footballer of the Year awards. Arsenal capped off the season with a 2–0 FA Cup Final win over Newcastle United.
