Yes, although if Wenger had been competing in the UEFA Cup, rather than the Champions League, for two decades, he might have picked up a few himself too.
Indeed. Compare the reaction to when Wenger occasionally played Aubameyang on the wing to when Emery does it.
And can you imagine if Wenger had played Xhaha or Iwobi at left back?
If it had turned out as well as it has then he would have been praised... Iwobi at LB worked brilliantly as he helped push them back and set up the goal

I don't know. You had to beat the likes of the mighty Galatasaray and Paok Salonika.

And when it didn't, it would be used as evidence of his senile French ****ery.
Whereas when Xhaka costs us the game against Palace, not a peep.
I would say that it's reasonable that Emery would have as his goal for the first season CL football as a minimum benchmark of progress. Anything less than that and questions can very reasonably be asked, I think.
I'm happy with Top 6 this year but then it must be top 4, if not challenging for the title.
