That is a mentality long gone from Arsenal - its why I didn’t DGAF how the team did. At least now there is a shift in the mentality within the club, which I welcome.
But I’ll never be content with 4th as the limit of aspirations.

Yeah, but along with that is a desire to see your club play in the best competitions and against the best teams? The dollars and cents of it all is of interest to me (I just find sports finance interesting), but to be honest if we spent far too much money on a player and he worked out, who cares? I care about on field success and if ENIC and Levy overspend to get there, that's their problem.
I'm thrilled we got the Champions League though. It's a big improvement for the club this year and while it's not a trophy, it bodes well for the coming season. And of course for Sonny to get the Golden Boot is amazing as well!
Mind the Gap!
