Winning cups... Tbh that's our only hope this season anyway. The champions league was once seen as a gateway to relevance, but it's now just an opportunity to play some big clubs and a good experience. It's all set up to ensure the same clubs go far every year anyway.....the **** clubs are essentially sold a day in the sun... A be happy to take part holiday. Quite why anyone would rather just play and eventually get beat in the Champions league over winning a major trophy is mental to me, but each to their own.
It’s all about the money. Get in the Champions League often enough then it gets you the money and players to have a chance of winning it. For now though I still went for the FA Cup cos I want to see us win it in my lifetime and I think the Europa League is very winnable for the following season when we also get into the top four
The 1st part is the problem... Essentially it's get into the champions league consistently for about a decade straight while 6 other clubs can spend 3 times as much every year.... if you're caught spending more than you're allowed you will be punished. I agree the Europa league has been made easier to win than the league Cup now.. No CL teams in it.
