Seeing how we've got as much chance as a snowball in hell of finishing in the top 4, it has to be the cup.
 
Thread should be League Cup or Top 3?

Loser's mentality most of you have.

Don't be too hard on yourself, without the mindset of colonial thinking the ESL would never have seen the light of day......

Sad to say but finishing top 4 EPL is much more prestigious and carries bigger rewards than winning a domestic cup. That's not in my opinion its a fact borne out and brought about by the governing bodies who created a structure which does not necessarily reward merit, as demonstrated by the misnomer that goes by the name of the 'Champions' league?

If I were asked this question in general I would have to opt for the top 4 but as it is specific to us and our history is built on cup success I have no hesitation in voting for a cup triumph regardless of its tin pot stature.
 
We need a trophy for these players, they need to get over the final hurdle. If we win the league cup then maybe we win another trophy next season or the season after. A lot of big players won the league cup as their first trophy. Take Harry Kane for example, be wants to win trophies. Maybe Kane wins the league cup once and the Europa League once and thinks that's enough for him to stay at Spurs. There is no top 4 trophy.

And do you remember what position we finished in the League for each of the last 30 seasons say, let alone for last 139 years

Bet you can probably name every season we won a trophy though, as that it what matters

yeah, fair, but if it's the league cup or top 4 - top 4 is more imp.

FA Cup - ok different story.
 
I'd pull out of the league Cup altogether if I could.
If we win, all we get is the utter embarrassment of "qualifying" for the intertoto cup.

I'd fancy our chances in our remaining league games, but not against City anyway so it's a moot point

Either would be good. Given where we are, Cup and Europa would be great. But... I love watching us in the CL. Those nights against Inter at WHL, Madrid at Wembley, City at NWL... etc etc... magical events and incredible occasions.

Yes, they were. Bit less enjoyable getting a severe chasing from Bayern though. And I think we are presently below that level right now. If we get to the CL next season and get drawn against Ayers or PSG again, I dread to think what would happen.
 
Only paid ENIC bots would vote Top 4 to keep their corporate masters happy with healthy dividend returns.

For shame
