because that quote comes directy after being knocked out of a cup, so its likely to be arsene giving his players some form of pick up.

even if we look at it at face value, are you seriously suggesting, that arsene wenger, after what he has won, would if you asked him, fourth place or league champions would say fourth place is first trophy.

given when he said that quote, its much more likely to be spin after a match to help pick his players up. because the quote from this year with 4th place is a trophy says this.

"there are five trophies, league, CL, top four, fa cup, league cup"

Are you familiar with the concept of a simile?

because he probably views us as the best team in the league in the sense we aren't bankrolled.

if he was obsessed with winning he would have done a lot more than he has done over the past 7 years, let's not pretend he's blameless in all of this, he's made his fair share of mistakes, I mean we're still suffering from his crazy "wage policy", we have around 6 players we can't shift, nobody wants them and nobody wants to pay them what we are paying them.

arsene is very principal driven, everything has to be done "the right way" which basically translates to "his way".

he has history, why do you think they kicked him out of Monaco? Read up on it and you will be surprised how similar things went over there to what they are like now at arsenal.

united arent bankrolled either.

ive never pretended he is blameless, of course he has made mistakes, however, hes a winner. if you met him in ten years time and asked him what was his proudest moment at arsenal, he would not say getting top four in x year, but winning x trophy. probably the unbeatables.

he is principled and thats both good and bad, this is where gazidas fails. if arsene says x player is only worth x million, im not paying, gazidas should turn round and go, im ceo, i control the money im paying y money. wenger wont turn round and not play the player

there are a lot of debates to be had about wenger, but debating wether he wants to win or get top four is not one of them.

But he's said 4th is an achievement right? It's like winning trophy as he puts it?

I just watched an interview where Mourinho has openly said he doesn't want his players to feel as though the Europa League is their competition. It should be considered a disappointment. When our manager is talking about 4th place being an achievement over a domestic cup, it's sending out the wrong message. It sets a low standard in the dressing room because he sets it up as if it's an achievement. Just imagine if your teacher and parents said you should aim for a job in McD's and be content with that? What does that say about your ability?

A winner who never wins, I like that

He's happy with top 4 face it, he wouldn't go on about it like he does if he wasn't. He praises the team regularly for getting 4th place despite crashing out of every important trophy by February/March.
