Arsenal have been brutally mocked by rival fans following the club's official Twitter account's Champions League post.
The Gunners finished behind champions Manchester City last season, meaning they secured Champions League football for the 2023/24 campaign.
Their last appearance in Europe's elite competition was during the 2016/17 term, in what was their 17th consecutive season in the tournament.

Arsenal have since dabbled in the Europa League, with the club set to mix it with Europe's giants this season.
And ahead of the Champions League draw, which takes place next week, the club have shared a post on social media, explaining how the competition works.
But the post has not gone down well among some Arsenal fans who have lamented their own club's social media activity.
The viral post has racked up thousands reposts, likes and quotes on Twitter.
Naturally, rival fans online, including Chelsea and Manchester United supporters, poked fun at Arsenal.
One Twitter user joked: "Arsenal fans need to know how the competition works that’s how long it’s been."
A second tweeted: "Fairs you need to teach us how it works it's been long."
An Arsenal supporter wrote: "'How the competition works' it hasn’t been THAT long."
A fourth added: "Been that long that we need reminding of the rules."
A fifth joked: "Who signed off on 'how the competition works'."
Another commented: "We've been out for soo long they gotta teach us how the competition works."
Arsenal, who have opened their new Premier League campaign with two wins, will find out their fate in the Champions League in next week's official draw.
Mikel Arteta's team are in Pot 2, which means they could face the likes of Barcelona, Napoli, Paris Saint-Germain and AC Milan, among others, in the group stage round.
