The 1998\u201399 Arsenal F.C. season <\/p>\n
The 1998\u201399 season was Arsenal\u2019s 101st competitive football season.
\nThe club, managed by Ars\u00e8ne Wenger, went into the season as Premier League and FA Cup double winners.

\nseason.

\nVivas.
\nIan Wright \u2013 the club\u2019s all-time leading goalscorer \u2013 left in the summer to join West Ham United.
\nStriker Nwankwo Kanu joined Arsenal in January 1999. <\/p>\n

\nFollowing their defeat by Aston Villa in December 1998, the team went on a 19-match unbeaten run, steadily climbing the league table.
\nA 6\u20131 win against Middlesbrough in April 1999 saw Arsenal move to the top of the table for the first time that season, and the victory
\nThe win against Tottenham Hotspur put the team three points clear, as their main rivals, United, drew with Liverpool.
\nBoth Arsenal and Manchester United went into the final two matches of the league season level on points, but the
\nThe latter\u2019s defeat to Leeds United all but ended their chances of retaining the title. <\/p>\n
30 different players represented Arsenal in five competitions, and there were 14 different goalscorers.
