With hundreds of thousands of people lining the streets, Arsenal 's men's and women's sides took in the adoration of their supporters during a two-and-a-half-hour five-mile loop, which started and finished at the club's Emirates Stadium. Fans were not allowed immediately next to the ground but the supporters, some of whom had been there since the early hours of Sunday, finally got to see their heroes after the four buses went over a bridge, which had the words 'This belongs to all of us' painted on the ground. The first bus had the Arsenal men's team on board, with Arsenal 's women's side, who became world champions when they won the Women's Champions Cup in February, on the third bus. The other two buses were full of club staff as well as family members. One of the most impressive sights was when a huge tifo - which had been unveiled before November's north London derby against Tottenham and had the words 'The Arsenal - These streets are our own' on it - was again displayed along the bus route.

At one stage on Sunday, Arsenal midfielder Declan Rice mocked the critics that have said the club have been too reliant on set-pieces to score goals by grabbing the microphone and chanting 'set-piece again, ole, ole'. Ben White spotted the opportunity to get Rice involved in a singalong and played 'Ice, Ice Baby' on the speaker, but Rice said "I'm not singing!". He didn't take much convincing and belted out the lyrics of the Vanilla Ice hit - to the delight of the Gunners fans. He told Sky Sports: "I love this team, I love the manager. To see the joy we can give people, it's crazy. But next year we're coming back for more." Rice was not the only Arsenal player to get the crowd going. Defender Riccardo Calafiori started a loud ' Arsenal , Arsenal ' chant, while co-chairman Josh Kroenke was also seen chanting and urging more noise from the Gunners fans. "This is crazy," said captain Martin Odegaard before singing along and waving a scarf as red smoke from flares filled the streets of north London. One of the largest cheers came when Odegaard, the first Arsenal captain to lead the club to Premier League glory since Patrick Vieira in 2004, paraded the trophy at the front of the bus.
