Arsenal legend Ian Wright hopes his old club build on last night's performance and finish in the top four.
Wright wrote in The Sun: "Yes, Arsenal were brilliant. People were off their seats as they nearly pulled off a miracle.
"But it will count for nothing if the Gunners are not playing in the Champions League next season and don't bring in players in the summer to support Robin van Persie.
"Of course the boys put up a brave effort, but they just left themselves too much to do. It's such a sad way to go out.""When you see Arsenal play like that at home, against an AC Milan side I reckon could still do well in the competition, it just makes the way they capitulated in the first leg harder to take.
