Ex-Arsenal defender Ashley Cole has sparked huge excitement among supporters after making a bold quadruple prediction.
Ashley Cole believes Arsenal could achieve a historic quadruple this season as the former Gunners defender says Mikel Arteta’s team has the belief to make history.
Speaking to Hayters TV at the London Football Awards 2026, the former Gunners defender refused to rule out the possibility of Mikel Arteta’s side winning all four major trophies this season.
When asked whether Arsenal could complete the historic achievement, Cole delivered a confident response.
“Why not?”
Ashley Cole Explains His Arsenal Quadruple Prediction
Cole believes the current Arsenal squad possesses the belief and momentum needed to achieve something extraordinary.
The former Invincibles defender pointed to the strong mentality within the team and the influence of Arteta as key reasons why the Gunners could continue their remarkable run.
“Why not? I think the players seem to have some sort of belief,” Cole said.
“The manager has a belief and slowly but surely they’re winning game after game. If they can continue that form nothing is impossible.”
He added that success in one competition can quickly spread confidence across the squad.
“If they get the first win who knows what can happen. It breeds confidence winning a trophy.”
Arsenal’s Strong Position Across All Competitions
Arsenal remain alive in every major competition as the 2025–26 season approaches its decisive phase.
The club’s impressive campaign has created genuine optimism around the possibility of an unprecedented trophy haul.
Current situation across competitions:
- Premier League: Arsenal sit seven points clear at the top with eight matches remaining.
- Champions League: The Gunners are unbeaten and preparing for a knockout clash against Bayer Leverkusen.
- FA Cup: Arteta’s side recently reached the quarter-finals.
- Carabao Cup: Arsenal will face Manchester City in the final later this month.
No English club has ever won the Premier League, Champions League, FA Cup and Carabao Cup in the same season.
Why the First Trophy Could Be Crucial
Cole also highlighted the importance of winning the first trophy as early as possible.
Many players in the current Arsenal squad have not yet experienced major silverware at the club, and the former defender believes early success could unlock further victories.
“There’s a lot of players there that have not won trophies,” he explained.
“So it would be important for them to get the first one over the line as quick as possible and then continue that run.”
The upcoming Carabao Cup final is widely seen as the perfect opportunity to begin that momentum.
Cole Also Backs Arsenal to Win the Premier League
The 44-year-old also expressed confidence that Arsenal can finally end their long wait for the Premier League title.
The Gunners have not lifted the league trophy since the famous Invincibles campaign in 2004, but Cole believes Arteta’s team now has the strength and mentality required to finish the job.
According to the former England international, winning the title would provide a powerful foundation for long-term success at the club.
Can Arsenal Really Achieve the Quadruple?
Winning four trophies in one season remains one of football’s most difficult achievements.
However, Arsenal’s consistency, squad depth and tactical organisation under Arteta have made the dream feel more realistic than ever.
