Cup without a doubt.
Need something to celebrate now having waited 9 seasons.
Seeing BFG lift the trophy would be awesome
Hope Arteta is nowhere near the stadium, let alone wearing the arm band!
Arsene Wenger, the only football manager that got paid 8 million quid to do nothing but sit on his arse..
we could always apply to the home office to get a deportation order to send him back to san sebastien, but i don't know if we could get it done in time for the cup finalSeeing BFG lift the trophy would be awesome

He did get the pel scoring off to a proper start in the semis, tbf.
What's with all the Arteta hate...?
Easy decision. No decision even......FA cup.
Fa cup all day long.
I'm actually starting to think that missing out on the CL for a season might not be a bad thing.
Psychologically, it could make the players try a damn sight harder next season to fight their way back into it and give them less of a sense of entitlement.
It's all well and good finishing top 4 every year but does it really give the players much of a reason to fight and play the best they can when it seemingly becomes commonplace?
If we don't get 4th, we will get Europa league football.
Spuds/Arsenal final ? Stopping their only chance of CL footy again
Can we come 17th just for one season, please?
You just know the spuds will be 18th or lower then.
A part of me is curious to see how we'd fare in the Europa League. We always seem to qualify from our CL groups with relative ease and most of the time they're made up of Europa League standard teams. If there's a chance we'd take it seriously I don't think it's the worst thing in the world really, we aren't exactly awash with European history and success, we're still lightweights in that sense, so it would be a good chance to build that up. We'd gain far more credibility from a strong EL showing than we would from our usual last 16 exits in the CL.
The only concern is how it would affect our pull when it comes to attracting super quality players.
