Nobody in football would choose the FA Cup over CL qualification. Not a manager, not a player, not a director or owner.

Just fans.
Actually, there may be some occasional exceptions to that rule. For example, had we scraped into the top 4 again last season but been beaten heavily by Chelsea in the Cup final, I'm fairly confident Wenger would have left.

In other words, I reckon Wenger would have plumped for the cup last season (if you'd asked him towards May).
