Yes, so Wenger used to be rightly scoffed at for claiming, when they won nothing but got top 4. Nowadays, sadly, it's the fashionable attitude.That 'top 4 trophy' you scoff at is worth more to the long term future of the club than a FA Cup or the League cup.
I'm not scoffing at qualifying for the CL by the way - just the attitude that doing so by finishing 2nd-4th is better than winning major trophies just because it brings more revenue into the club. That kind of thinking used to be hated - as the kind of priorities greedy money men owners would be solely interested in, while proper fans and players look back much more fondly at actual trophies and medals won.
