Top 4 v FA Cup

got to be the fa cup

I wouldn't trust us to win a cl qualifier, but we aren't getting better players because we won the fa cup. cl is the priority.

however, given the way the question is phrased, I would guarantee the f.a. cup. we should get top 4 anyway.

Would buzz off the winning the cup nqat but if it's a choice it's the league finish all the way.

Disagree, actually winning stuff is always better.

FA Cup is a traditional trophy.

Fourth place is a Wenger trophy.

Or, it's setting us up to get the players we want without the insane fees and wages. Another season in the Europa kills the squad imo.

We just play the kids and go out of it early next time, if it comes to that.

Oh well that’d make it all ok then

Poll in a week or so may be titled;

Finish 4th or stop City winning the treble by winning a trophy ourselves.

FA cup and new owners, in a deal that doesn’t involve the glazers staying in any form, will do for me.

We’d have Juventus away on Thursday if we weren’t knocked out the Europa.

A whole new level of knackered that’d be.

i'd rather we'd have just bombed out of the europa in the group stages than get all that way just to flop against sevilla.

next season we should put the kids out in it from the start

Said it earlier in the season: in going for everything we could end up with nothing. We’re not equipped for an assault on four comps.

If we were playing a game a week, we’d have 5-10 extra points.

We’ve already won a trophy and might win another…

The europa is a trap.

if we were playing anyone else in the final then I'd say CL qualification is more important for the longer term progression of the team and as an important step in the rebuilding job that ETH is doing, but it's City, and may well be one third of a treble, we simply have to win that game.
