Yes. One final out of 15 or 16 attempts is probably more down to the law of averages than the talent of the coach.

Leverkusen have been to as many finals from 8 attempts.Valencia and Liverpool twice from less attempts than us. And didn't Leeds make it all the way to the semi in their only CL season? (could be wrong)

For Arsenal to be considered a truly great club, we need European pedigree. We need a European Cup to our name. Under Wenger, I'm not sure that's possible... 15 or 16 failed attempts is surely enough?

Arsene, thanks for the memories but it's time to say goodbye.
it's a cup, anyone who can qualify then get through the groups can win it





You arent sure where you been for last x amount of years WE WILL NEVER WIN IT WHILE ARSENE WENGER IS STILL MANAGER.Sorry about the shouting just had to get it off my chest 8)

Robin Cooper with a wonderfully inventive tale about the match ball.

I seriously think we're more likely to win the CL than the Prem
an extra bit of luck can get you over the line in a KO competition

You'll win neither with a team that defends like a Sunday League team. You'll never win major trophies if you rely on outscoring opponents
