You're sort of right.
Chapman left Huddersfield after two titles, and died before Arsenal completed the second of their three. But he built both sides.

Yes it was the same man
Clubs as a manager: Northampton Town (1907-12), Leeds City (1912-19), Huddersfield Town (1921-25) - Huddersfield were champions in 1923-4 and 1924-5 and won the F A Cup in 1922. Joined Arsenal in 1925 and the Club won their first major honours under him : the F A Cup in 1930. The following season, 1930-31, we were League Champions for the first time. In 1931-32 Arsenal were runners up in both League and Cup. Three League championships followed in 1932-3, 1933-4 and 1934-5 but Chapman only lived to see the first of these completed. Also won Charity Shield 1930, 1931 and 1933.
Matches with Arsenal played 403, won 201, drew 97, lost 105, goals for 864, goals against 598.

I think not, Chapman played for Huddersfield and then went to spurs, ( He couldn't get in the 1st team). He then joined the gypos and went on to manage them.
