I kind of agree to an extent, but then I think we might just be making excuses.Makes me laugh how we lose a final to one of the best and most expensive teams in history and SSN banner says Spurs now go 14 years without a trophy.
Do they say Wet Sham have gone 41 years when they fail to win one?
Do they say Newcastle have gone over 50 years now without one?
Aston Villa and Everton 25+ years
Sheffield United 95 fucking years
Palace Fulham and Brighton have never won a cup at all. Ever.
The counter arguments would be - in no particular order
* We are among the 10 "richest" clubs in the world the other clubs you mention aren't
* In the last few years we've had players like Kane, Son, Jan, Toby, Dembele, Walker, Rose, Eriksen. More than enough to win a trophy, those other clubs haven't had squads like that
* We've finished 2nd, 3rd and a handful of 4th's plus a few finals, semi-finals in that time you would expect something to stick
* Our prices are amongst the most expensive in the world, so I feel our fans can feel entitled to seeing us win one of these domestic cups at the very least given all of the above and the fact that the big guns don't prioritise them as much.
All told we should have won something in the last 10 years. The fact that we haven't and our team is only going to get worse/older from here I just feel like - If not then? when? and how?
