I think that might be where the disconnect is, some of us fans highly prioritized a cup run this year, even at the expense of a couple of league positions. Others do not and see the cups as a way to try out fringe players to improve our league performances.
Sorry, that's far too sensible a topic and strays far from my comfort zone of try hard bellend.I think that might be where the disconnect is, some of us fans highly prioritized a cup run this year, even at the expense of a couple of league positions. Others do not and see the cups as a way to try out fringe players to improve our league performances.
Moyes appears to be in the latter camp.
Might be an interesting poll to run to judge how many in which camp @Daveysgingerlovechild if you can tear yourself away from important fashion questions
If a team is successful, you'll find that they will struggle the following season without the resources of "quality - depth" of squad, just due to the amount of games played and their best players being poached.I think that might be where the disconnect is, some of us fans highly prioritized a cup run this year, even at the expense of a couple of league positions.

Interesting last season to see Postecoglou effectively put the league campaign second and putting all his eggs into the winning of the Europa Cup. He got some pelters from fans but I'd take that anyday of the week. Football is about winning trophies not finishing a few positions higher in the table.I think that might be where the disconnect is, some of us fans highly prioritized a cup run this year, even at the expense of a couple of league positions.

Didn't have much choice as he had made those comments publicly about how he always wins something in his second season so he had to go for it really.
They didn't though did they! That takes courage from the manager to put it all on the line.
Weird frame tbh. It takes guts from the manager to say that and then follow through. Give me that in a manager over the cautious approach all day.
Well if you're a Spurs supporter last season, would you be happy with finishing 17th and winning the Europa?
I don't disagree but given what was an already precarious league position it was an enormous risk too take which ended up costing him his job in the end.
He's not in charge of those decisions, all he can do as a manager is do what he thinks is right. i bet if you asked him now would he do it differently he'd say no.
Hilarious, you're accusing me of something that you're doing. I've already answered your question btw, its not my fault you can't make logical inferences. So I'll ask you again if you were a Spurs supporter last season would you have been happy finishing 17th and winning the Europa?
