Another UEFA Champions League group stage draw will pass by with Arsenal not involved.
Going into the final three games of last season, the Gunners were on course to end their five-year absence from European football's elite club competition but defeats away at Tottenham Hotspur and Newcastle United ultimately proved costly as they missed out on a top-four finish by two points.
But it wasn't all doom and gloom as there are plenty of positives to take from Arsenal being back in the Europa League season following a full season without any European football whatsoever - the first time the club had experienced such a feat in over two decades.
