Arsenal Away Shirt 2005/06

The 2005/06 season was Arsenal’s last at Highbury, and it became historic. In the Premier League, Arsène Wenger’s side finished 4th, securing Champions League qualification on the final day ahead of rivals Tottenham. Domestically inconsistent, the Gunners were inspired in Europe: with Thierry Henry, Robert Pirès, Cesc Fàbregas, and goalkeeper Jens Lehmann, they reached their first ever Champions League final, defeating Real Madrid, Juventus, and Villarreal along the way. Lehmann’s record-breaking run of clean sheets defined their campaign, though he was sent off in the final as Arsenal lost 2–1 to Barcelona. Despite no trophies, it was an unforgettable transitional season.
