Silverware matters most to Unai Emery as Arsenal aims to win for missing Henrikh Mkhitaryan

The Hindu  

Henrikh Mkhitaryan's Arsenal teammates stated their determination to win Wednesday's Europa League final against Chelsea in Baku for the absent Armenian star, as Gunners boss Unai Emery told his team to focus on winning silverware rather than worrying about a possible return to the Champions League. “Each title is very important for a team like Arsenal or Chelsea, in England and also in Europe.” Emery's own desire to win this competition for a fourth time in six years is understandable, but for Arsenal there is also a need -- financially and in terms of prestige -- to return to the Champions League after a two-season absence.
