Let's get over with this now! Arsenal has no chance of winning the Champions League. That'll be considered an expensive joke. They should focus on winning the Premier League this season and not prioritizing a competition they know quite well they can't win.
They've had a remarkable season last season, so I expect them to use that energy and motivation towards getting the Premier League job done.
I didn't expect them to drop points off against Lens though, they shouldn't have lost that game. They should be very focused when they face Sevilla ahead. Sevilla now has a new coach, so they should expect something different and tough.
You said Arsenal should focus on the Premier League and not put too much importance on the UCL competition. However, when you lost to Lens, you actually said you didn't expect it and that you should have won. So I'm confused, do you think Arsenal should focus on the Premier League and UCL or one of them? Then you also said that you have to focus on facing Sevilla, which is a UCL competition.They've had a remarkable season last season, so I expect them to use that energy and motivation towards getting the Premier League job done.

Just think again
For me personally, whether they qualify or not, Arsenal still have to perform optimally, when the composition of players the Gunner has is in ideal condition. After successfully solving Pep Guardiola's strategy puzzle, Arteta ambitions for UCL will be much higher. Remembering that last season Man City was the trophy holder. This opportunity is still open even though in the future the opponents Arsenal will face after the group stage will be much more challenging.
