Arsenal Football Club stayed at the top of the EPL table for 248 days and it was so sad that they didn’t win the EPL title later on.
The list and drew consecutive matches towards the end of the EPL campaign and this led to them surrendering an 8 point lead they had over their rivals, Manchester City. Nevertheless, Arsenal have still made huge figures after finishing in second position.
It is alleged that Arsenal have earned £159.8m in prize money for finishing second in the Premier League. This is based on Liverpool earning the same amount for finishing second last season. This is not so bad afterall as this will be reinvested into the squad and probably to buy more players for the upcoming season.
