"I really like Arsenal. Do you really like Arsenal, or only Arsenal with trophies?" - Dennis Bergkamp.
"Which Arsenal do they want back, the one Arsene created?" - Tony Adams.
Not really. We were seeded because of our record in the CL over the last 5 years (or however they did it).
So while our draw could have been worse we've earned a decent seeding.
And within that group we've done enough to qualify and in the games I've seen we haven't been lucky, we've deserved to go through.
And even if we were 'lucky' it doesn't really add much to a discussion given you could just say we were 'unlucky' to draw Sunderland away in the FA Cup last season when all other Premier League teams drew lower league opposition.
We drew who we drew and we had some terrible performances which deserve analysis but we also got through. Talking about luck or unluck isn't really constructive.
Do me a favour, the seeding system can't be taken seriously, we're seeded above a team who won the title in our very own country last season and who are clearly they superior to us...how is that a fair seeding system.
The seeding system offers us protection we don't really deserve, look at our performances in recent years, getting knocked out at the 1st sign of a decent team.
