Would you rank winning the European Conference League above or below winning the League Cup? Just a thought.

Vitesse sold their home ground out for first time in maybe 20 years - and players pumped up at playing Spurs whereas Spurs players weren't that bothered.
Having won 1-0 at their place, they upped their game for 2nd leg.
Not helped that too many of Spurs squad have been coasting for a couple of years.
And not all the teams in ECW are rubbish - Rennes beat PSG 2-0 with Messi in their team in October.
Dunno what to make of that.
What about Mura
Spurs team didn't turn up. A League 2 team could have won this evening
Levy probably should have let him coach the final…
I used to loathe him when he was at Chelsea. Now not so much, but he was not the right fit.
Still the worst decision Levy has ever made IMO, went with his ego cause he knew he’d get smashed for sacking Jose if he delivered a trophy. All worked out in the end for everyone though, let’s hope Conte is the guy.
It'll ALL come out in a book (or Apple/Netflix/Amazon Documentary) one day, I'm sure!
Yes, the Trophy thing is a blot on his/our copybook....
But the League finishes under him tell a more telling story.
When he's at a club ALREADY good enough to WIN a League, he merely guides them to it...
When he's not, he doesn't have the capability to drag them up to that level... he reverts to 'just' being a Cup manager, for one day if glory, and that's it.
He'd probably have done the same with us with the League Cup, but Levy wasn't having any of it!!
Maybe that WAS the plan all along!??
I don't think they are even that dumb to appoint him.........
I think Woolwich will get so far stuck up their own PR spin on Arteta that they will con themselves that he's progressing. They will be the same as they are now, which is the same as they were last year and the year before that and before that and before that.
Until Arteta shows signs that he's improving the players under him then he's at his zenith. I believe he hasn't improved a single individual player in his squad. I'll freely admit that he had an impact when he first took over, it wasn't anything spectacular, all he did was given them more organisation without the ball, and he improved their shape. The issue is he is limited to just this, he's very defensive and despite having creative players at his disposal, he can't balance the team to be solid and offer an attacking outlet.
