Nor did we when we was in itCrazy they can do this due to wining the worst Europa League in history by miles. They didn’t face a good team in the entire competition.

I must have imagined us playing the likes of Atletico and Chelsea then.Nor did we when we was in it
Olympiacos and Sporting to name a few. Criminal that Arteta went out to Olympiacos.I must have imagined us playing the likes of Atletico and Chelsea then.
My point was they won the weakest Europa League ever seen. No CL teams dropping in for the first time ever. They beat Young Boys and the worst Man Utd side for 70 years to win it ffs.Olympiacos and Sporting to name a few. Criminal that Arteta went out to Olympiacos.
If they got knocked out you will laugh and say they got knocked out by a weak team, if they win you will say it’s a weak competition.My point was they won the weakest Europa League ever seen.

Yep they won a weak Europa league, something we have never won and have no right to downplay any European trophy with our history. Had our chances in that comp and went out to a poor side like Olympiacos.My point was they won the weakest Europa League ever seen. No CL teams dropping in for the first time ever.

Damn right, but the teams in that comp were hideous, lets be honest. The fact PL teams 16th & 17th at the time reached the final is abysmal. If we were in that comp last year and never won it, the emirates should have been burned to the ground.If they got knocked out you will laugh and say they got knocked out by a weak team, if they win you will say it’s a weak competition.
Great, lets aim for 7th and win the conference league then, if it's an achievement to win any European trophy. Europa League is a joke now and I agree with Wenger that the CL spot should be removed for the winner.Yep they won a weak Europa league, something we have never won and have no right to downplay any European trophy with our history.

Never said let’s aim for 7th to be in that comp. You better believe we should win if we did though. We can’t sit on our high horse in Europe when we have no pedigree and history in Europe.Great, lets aim for 7th and win the conference league then, if it's an achievement to win any European trophy.

I am not downplaying Sp**s winning it, I am downplaying the whole competition in its current form. There is barely a decent side in it. It is ridiculous the winner gets a CL place now.You can only downplay Sp**s winning the Europa, if we were winning (not competing) either the Champions League or Premier League...or at least winning the FA/League Cup, as then you could say at least we were winning something and were too good to even be in the Europa now anyway.
But until we start winning silverware again, we can't downplay any trophy.

I agree it's sour grapes, but conversely, if we were to win this or the league cup, you can guarantee half the forum would be downplaying it as a weak trophy, not good enough until we win a 'proper' trophy.You raise good points, but until we win something ourselves anything we say will just be seen as sour grapes.
I thought if an RC is activated it doesn’t matter? And that player is free to discuss terms
