Arsenal 2010–11 football season

The 2010–11 season was Arsenal Football Club’s 19th season in the Premier League. The team were within one point of league leaders Manchester United at the end of February,[1] but a run of just one league win throughout the entire of March and April ended their challenge.[2] Arsenal’s attempts to win the Champions League were ended once again by Barcelona, being beaten 4–3 on aggregate at the round of 16 stage after defeating them 2–1 at home, whilst hopes of winning the FA Cup were ended in the sixth round following a 2–0 defeat to Manchester United. The team came closest to silverware in the League Cup, reaching the final, only to concede a Birmingham City winner in the 89th minute.[3]

Kit[edit]

Supplier: Nike / Sponsor: Fly Emirates

Kit information[edit]

Nike released a new set of kits for the 2010–11 season.

  • Home: After the controversial home kit of the last two seasons which ditched Arsenal’s iconic white sleeves, the club returned to their traditional design. The kit was inspired by the home kits used in 1970s, which featured a white round neck collar.
  • Away: Arsenal’s away kit combined the club’s traditional yellow away colour with maroon, a shade similar to the club’s original kits. The kit featured maroon pinstripes and V-neck with maroon shorts and hooped socks.
  • Keeper: Arsenal goalkeepers wore four different kits throughout the season. The most conspicuous feature of the kits were the black zig-zags on the arms, based on the template Nike used in 2010 for its main clubs. The primary kit was grey, while the alternatives were black, turquoise and pink.

Other information[edit]

The Emirates Stadium is the second largest stadium in the Premier League.
