Arsenal beat Porto on penalties on Tuesday night in what may be the Gunners’ best win in a decade.

Indeed, for the first time in a long time, the north London club have progressed to the Champions League quarter-finals, and, as you can imagine, the fanbase are over the moon.

The atmosphere within the Emirates was electric on the day, and speaking on CBS, Jamie Carragher has made a claim about the atmosphere on Tuesday.

The pundit says that he’d never seen an atmosphere like that at the Emirates before, stating that something special is building in terms of energy and belief amongst the fanbase right now.

Best atmosphere ever at Arsenal

Carragher spoke about the Arsenal fans during the game against Porto.

‘I noticed yesterday, I’d never seen an atmosphere at Arsenal like that before the game. The energy, was it like there when you went to play at the Emirates? It feels like there’s something building with the supporters, their belief and their energy,” Carragher said.

Belief

For the first time in a long time, there’s a real sense of belief around Arsenal right now.

The Gunners fans genuinely believe they can achieve anything and win the biggest trophies, and that has led to a truly incredible atmosphere being cultivated at the Emirates recently.

The connection between the club and the fanbase is finally back, and this level of support may well spur Arsenal onto something special this season.

Make no mistake about it, if Arsenal are to win the Premier League or the Champions League this season, the supporters will have more than played their part in this success.

It’s a very exciting time to be an Arsenal supporter, and there could well be something special on the horizon for Mikel Arteta’s side.
