So far this season, there is only one top giant who has really gained nothing.

Go and ask Chelsea, if you can only need one title or the Champions League qualification, how will they choose? There is no doubt that it is definitely a Champions League seat. Not to mention the financial factors, the European League champion can only let Chelsea play in the European League, which is one level behind the Champions League; Besides, the European League champion is too light, and Chelsea can become the first team in European football history to win the three major cups of the new and old, but this is just an illusory gimmick and has no substantive significance.
So, it is better to get both, but if you can only protect one, you will definitely be a Champions League seat.
In fact, the four elements are empty, which is a concept with Versailles attributes. Only those teams with the strength to compete for multiple championships are worthy of being described as empty. You teams like Wolves, Espanyol, Cagliari, and Hoffenheim are good enough to be able to relegate, all four are gone? This word is not on the same channel as them. After all, they have no ability or chance to compete for any championship, so there is no question of whether they are empty or not. As long as you relegate, it will not be empty.
Therefore, only top giants like Arsenal and Real Madrid can use this word.
Real Madrid are all empty? That's right. But lower the standards, hasn’t Real Madrid won the European Super Cup and Intercontinental Cup championships? And Arsenal did not win a single championship, and it was truly empty.
But compared to what was mentioned above, although it is a pity that all four major players are empty, the Champions League seat is definitely Arsenal's biggest gain this season. This is much more practical and valuable than some small championship trophys.
Let's take another step, and take Chelsea as an example. Assuming that Chelsea did not qualify for the Champions League in the end and the UEFA Champions League lost to Real Betis in the final, then they still have a certain probability of being shortlisted for the UEFA Champions League next season. Although this is a bit of a loss for Chelsea, it is at least a European competition. Moreover, have they played once this season?
So, as of now, the most embarrassing top team in European football this season is AC Milan. They are the only top giants of this season that have truly gained nothing.
says that Milan is a top giant, mainly targeting history. In fact, Milan's current lineup is considered a strong team, but its results are a mess. The Champions League was unexpectedly eliminated by Feyenoord, ranked ninth in Serie A and missed the European Cup. However, the Italian Cup, which finally reached the final, lost to Bologna.
In fact, many people have long forgotten AC Milan. In the European top giants formed by Real Madrid, Bayern, Barcelona, Liverpool and other teams, Milan is no longer bringing them. This season, we are focusing on Inter Milan, Naples, and even the upstart Atlanta. Juventus, who was awkward at the beginning of the season, has now returned to the Champions League zone step by step. Only Milan, they are increasingly unable to keep up.
It is especially regrettable that the Italian Cup was the most likely event for Milan to win. They could have been shortlisted for the Europa League next season with their title, which is also worth it. And in the semi-finals, they also defeated Inter Milan in the same city. It is really sad that Inter Milan can win, but cannot win Bologna.
So next season, Milan is destined to be unable to leave Italy. All they can participate in is Serie A, the Italian Cup, and there is no chance to go abroad for business trips. Chelsea also experienced this situation last season.
However, this is just the situation so far, not the upper limit. If Manchester United loses the Europa League final, they will be the second top giant to gain nothing. Of course, Tottenham Hotspur’s same thing, if they are also considered top giants.
