It looks like Arsenal will win the Premier League, the Champions League, the FA Cup, the League Cup, and the Community Shield after all.
We're talking nearly like "Invincibles" levels of incredibleness here.

De’Andre Johnson was arrested and charged last month after he allegedly punched a woman in the face at a bar.
In the security footage, Johnson, the 19-year-old quarterback of the Florida State Seminoles, is seen punching Abigail Husty, a 21-year-old FSU student, in the face after an altercation at Yianni's Nightclub near the FSU campus on June 24.
The video shows Husty raising her arm at Johnson when he "aggressively" pushed past her as she waited to order drinks at the bar, according to court documents. Johnson grabbed her raised arm and began pushing her. To release his grip on her, Husty raised her knee and lunged towards Johnson in at attempt to strike him with her left fist. Johnson then punched the woman on the left side of her face.
One if the witnesses heard Husty yell "no" twice at Johnson before he punched her, court documents said.
She suffered bruising under her left eye, swelling to the left cheek and upper lip and, and a small cut near the bridge of the nose.
Johnson was charged with misdemeanor battery. He turned himself in to police on June 30 and was released on $500 bond, the Tallahassee Democrat reported. On July 2, he pleaded not guilty to the misdemeanor charge.

Pilon also reported that National Women's Soccer League teams have a salary cap of $200,000. Major League Soccer teams each have a a $3.1 million salary cap.
In other sports, the disparity in salary between men and women's leagues is equally as obvious:
With the exception of women's tennis — which only recently won equal prize money at all four Grand Slam tournaments — the gender disparity across other professional sports remains poor, as well. Total prize money for the PGA tour, more than $250 million, is more than five times that of the LPGA tour ($50 million), according to the Women's Sports Foundation. In the WNBA, the minimum salary for 2013 was $37,950 and the team salary cap was $913,000. For NBA players during the same season, the minimum salary was $490,180 and the team salary cap was $58.7 million.
When the disparity in pay for women athletes versus men is raised, the argument often veers toward television ratings, with claims that women's sports are watched by significantly fewer people.
However, TV By The Numbers reports that 20.3 million viewers tuned in to the Women's World Cup final between the U.S. and Japan. The match between the U.S. and Portugal during the 2014 men's World Cup — the most watched soccer game in U.S. history until last night — produced 18.2 million viewers.
She broke it down…and she just couldn’t stop.
