That's a bit of a shame for them. Unlikely they will be in the Champions League next year which, again, is a bit of a shame for them.
I know, poor dabs.

It's costing Arsenal something like £440,000 a week in wages for Lacazette and Ozill alone. That seems like a very big outlay for two players who are hardly guaranteed starters at a club playing in the Europa League.
Why is there such an apparently large queue for Ramsay?! Hugely inconsistent player, despite occasional moments of brilliance. Agent talk?
Eyezil (geddit) is on £350K a week, is Lacazette only on £90K?
It can't be good for team spirit to see you star player fannying around while earning 4 times as much.
Of course, the one in which he broke his leg and missed the whole seasonMust be, he is hugely overrated. Has he had one good season in 10 years at Arsenal?
Emery said they have no money and can only do loans this window ? seriously where is their money. Maybe Kroenke has totally prioritised the Rams and the stadium. I wonder if this really could be a serious decline to mid table.
These 2 clowns saying Bernd, Leno back and forth at each other from 15mins onwards reminds me of a retarded version of duck, duck, goose.
To be honest, I don't know how they spent on Auba and Lacazette in the first place. This article indicated that their profits had fallen by 60% when they missed CL. They are now facing the prospect of a 3rd year outside of CL. They're just another mid-table club right now, and though their matchday and sponsorship numbers are going to be higher than a club like West Ham, they've also got a massive wage bill.
I honestly think they're on borrowed time. Their first XI is ancient, and though some of their youngsters are progressing, a Xhaka/Guendouzi/Torrera/Iwobi/Kolasinc core isn't exactly going to be challenging for anything.
The thing that might save them (well, halt the free-fall at 6th place) is the fact that traditionally no club outside of the top 6 has consistently challenged for a top 6 place.
Everton and Southampton have flirted with it, on and off, and all the rest are relegation-fodder.
Because their budget is bigger than the teams below them, you'd think that they'd be 'best of the rest' for many years to come.
I know you're being sarcastic, but NO!I know, poor dabs.

Feck em all
Let them rot
We have to enjoy our time now as it is the best for MANY long years.
I hope THEIR WINTER is coming!
My meaning of WINTER was Game of Thrones WINTER- huge unavoidable trouble with no way outNot just winter. I want them to have an Ice Age all for themselves.
They sold off Oxlade-Chamberlain in August 2017 for £35 million which made a massive difference for their first year out of the CL, they probably can't do that every year the way things are now with their squad.
*Edit*
This is the sort of money they are losing - I know we have talked about on here before ..

The Europa brings in revenue but nothing like the CL riches, for years I wanted to see their funding drop.
Long may it continue.
