#4 No League, No League Cup, No FA Cup, No Champions League
Arsenal had become a constant in the most elite competition in Europe having qualified for a 16th consecutive season under Arsene Wenger the season before last.
Arsenal fans could rely on their side finishing in the top four in the League and could then look forward to those glamorous nights in Europe. More magic to look forward to - a Henry special against Zanetti or at the Bernabeu, Fabregas' masterclass against Juve or beating Bayern at the Allianz.
However, the horrible run of form that the Gunners seem to always find in the first round of the knock-outs means that they've failed to make it to the quarters in 8 out of their last 9 seasons in the competition.
