Arsenal FC

Arsenal Football Club is an English professional football club based in Holloway, London. Founded in 1886, they compete in the Premier League, the top tier of English football, and are one of the most successful clubs in England having won 13 First Division and Premier League titles and a joint-record 11 FA Cups. Arsenal have also reached ten European finals winning two UEFA Cup Winners’ Cups and one UEFA Intertoto Cup.

The club’s home ground is Emirates Stadium located within Islington borough which has a capacity of 60,704 making it the third largest stadium in England after Wembley Stadium and Old Trafford. It was opened on 22 July 2006 as part of Ashburton Grove development project with construction costing £390 million ($594m). The modernised version replaced their traditional former Highbury Stadium built 1913–2006 where they had played since before WWII to crowds up to 38000 people per match day when at full capacity.

Since 1893 Arsenal have adopted red shirts combined either white or royal blue shorts for home games while yellow away strips are used including once during 2005 season when Gunners wore all yellow attire against Manchester United resulting 0:1 defeat; black substitute kits were introduced 1998/99 season but never appeared on pitch until 2011 due mainly opposition from supporters who associate dark colors with rivals Tottenham Hotspur FC instead light blues & whites associated traditionally by Gunners fans themselves over years past – thus avoid confusion among spectators!
