ARSENAL have removed all the Ls from their Twitter username and bio to mark the 16th anniversary of their Invincibles Premier League campaign.
The Gunners became the first team in England’s modern era to complete an entire top-flight season unbeaten on route to lifting their last title in 2004.

Arsene Wenger’s side wrapped up the undefeated 38-game league term with a 2-1 win over Leicester City at Highbury.
The Foxes had threatened to spoil the party following Paul Dickov’s strike but the north Londoners hit back with goals from Thierry Henry and Patrick Vieira.
Almost two decades later, Arsenal commemorated the unique achievement by symbolically removing the letter L from their official Twitter page to reflect the team never registering a loss.
The club’s bio now instead reads: “The officia account of Arsena Footba Cub.”
And fans hailed the Gunners for “winning Twitter” as they joined in the anniversary celebrations.
One supporter said: “Give the admin a beer.”
Another commented: “The Arsenal admin are on fire today!”
A third added: “Not an L in sight – love it.”
Arsenal also humorously posted a picture of Wenger sitting in the stands alone with his arms out with the caption reading: “Arsene sitting with all the other Invincible Premier League managers!”
But the club later paid tribute to Jose Antonio Reyes, who tragically died in a car crash last year.
The Spaniard had signed for the club during the January transfer window of the Invincibles season.
