Arsene Wenger believes Champions League qualification has as much merit attached to it as winning a domestic cup competition.
"For me, there are five 'trophies'," says Wenger, speaking at the club's AGM today. "The first is to win the Premier League, the second is to win the Champions League, the third is to qualify for the Champions League, the fourth is to win the FA Cup and the fifth is to win the League Cup."
Wenger has not won a trophy with Arsenal since 2005, when they beat Manchester United in the FA Cup final

From the BBC.

So they have decided to invent a trophy, very sad.

True, but so am I, hence the spelling of the title!

The only way he can justify his failure at bringing any glory to those shitholes since '05. The man is a weasel.

So in his eyes they have won silverware for the past seven years?!! Terrible way of looking at things!

To be fair they have won the Emirates Cup 3 times in the past 5 years, surely that appeases their plastic corporate fans, surprised they haven't paraded that around Islington

This year is their 15th tilt at the Champions League, that is 14 years of failure.

Makes me mad all these shit English clubs, look at City, two years in and both times humiliated. Our first run we were put with the Champions of the competition, Dutch champions (I think?) and Werder Bremen who were in the top 10 Uefa rankings. Yet we came out on top and did ourselves proud despite being humiliated in one half against Inter.

Teams like Arsenal and City just seem happy to be in it and don't care about trying to win it. Least we gave it a go, just a shame everything goes wrong for us whenever we qualify.

I bet if we qualify this year, world war 3 will break out and all football will be suspended.

If Arsenal are competing for a trophy in 4th... then they clearly aren't competing for the Premier League title and the Champion's League trophy at the same time as competing for this '4th place trophy'.
