While I don't disagree that it's about winning, for me it's about mounting a serious challenge and not just shafting the fans to line one's pockets. A league cup would be great, FA cup even better, but playing in the CL final was magic. No we didn't win, but just being in the final where each and every team in all of Europe would love to be and some spend billions to get to, that made me proud. That was glory for me.
But mounting a challenge isn't about trying to win everything, it's about giving your best where it counts. Right now we are not title challengers and even less so CL final material. So to take the domestic cups seriously, that's the least we could do in my book. This was disappointing. If everything is about getting top 4 to be able to pay the wages of players whose only goal is to get top 4 and rinse and repeat, what's the point?
Not everything is about getting top 4. We do get to finals. And we will win trophies.
