With 75 points Arsenal FC finished third in the 23rd season of the English Premier League (EPL). Though the team was in top three positions, its 75 points with 22 wins was far of EPL champions Chelsea FC, who had led since the start of EPL season 2014-15. Going ahead into season 2015-16, Arsenal would try close that 12 points between them and the EPL champions, if not win the Premier League’s 24th season itself.
