Wenger: Arsenal can afford to miss Champions League

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger says missing the Champions League won't hurt their finances.

Wenger insists Arsenal are no longer financially dependent on qualifying for the Champions League.

The Frenchman said: "Since we built the stadium, qualifying has always been the obsession.

"It was an obsession because of the financial situation.

"But financially, the pressure is less now. What it is now is to play against the best. Pride and prestige."
