Winning the Europa League would be a very good season, our third major European trophy.

We have no chance of winning the Premier league so no point entertaining that thought.

Europa all the way and I am totally confident we can do it. See you lot for the parade :)

Europa League win. Wenger believes he can win it and lord knows he won't win the CL.

Wenger has said he'll sit down with the board about his position in the summer. Might be nothing but I'm hoping he has picked his successor and wants to set up a smooth transition after Year 2 of his contract ends.

At the start of the season, the only objective the club and I had on our minds was Champions League qualification. We couldn't run the risk of not qualifying for the Champions League for the second season in a row; it would be a disaster for us.

To be blunt, we don't look good enough to finish in the top four. The teams above us are far ahead of us in terms of their performances on the pitch. I'm not confident we can win the Europa League either because we're still the same old 'Bottlers FC' we've been for the last ten years. It seems the way to the Champions League is blocked.

All in all, I don't think there's any way this season will go down in history as a success. We're a club in crisis and without Champions League football next season will be hellish.

A siccessful season would be of we sold nearly every current player in the squad, Wenger steps aside himself and Silent Stan together with Gazidis all bog off..
Watching us play with this current squad is the most ugliest sight ever. Poor poor footballers, some just seem like Sunday league quality, can’t do the most basics..

A complete overhaul at the club.

It's the Europa League or bust this season.

No matter how badly we perform in the league, if we can win the EL at the end - I'd say it'd have been an extraordinarily good season for us. Simply because of the way our board is going about things at Arsenal.

EL is the dream. If we could retain the FA Cup and win the EL alongside, it'd be historic.

And don't be mistaken: if we win the EL, we'd have done it in spite of Wenger/board.

Europa League

Given our current level, that’s about the highest we can realistically aim for. It won’t be easy though.

Failing EL, any silverware at all plus Top 4 would be a ‘success’. PL is way beyond our reach.
