Arsenal head coach Arsene Wenger hopes to break into the main European club tournament through the national championship.

At the moment, the "Gunners" occupy 6th place in the Premier League standings, and therefore the chances of getting into the Champions League for the next season are rather small.

In this case, Arsenal has the opportunity to break into the most prestigious European club tournament through a victory in the European League, as it did last season, Manchester United.

This option does not please Arsene Wenger, who does not understand why such an option exists at all.

"It's too early for us to think about winning the Europa League. Manchester United last year made it a priority for themselves only when it reached the semi-finals, "Wenger began.

"We still have a chance to get into the Champions League through the Premier League - this is our priority," "In general, getting into the Champions League through the victory in the European League is, in my opinion, wrong. I'm not a fan of this option ".

"If we have a chance to get into the Champions League through the Europa League - we'll try to use it. But the priority remains the nuclear submarine ", - concluded Wenger.

Earlier Wenger accused the English players of frequent simulations.
