Up For The Cup?

[JobForTheMoyes]

Given how we look the best we have in years, should we prioritise the League Cup? It is our best chance of silverware, and would be a milestone to kick on from.

We should try to win every game and we will under Ancelotti. But its a squad game over the course of a season and we will need others to come in and contribute.

 

[Papa Shango]

I don't want to get too carried away after a decent start but I will be very disappointed if we don't win the treble and questions would need to be asked of the manager.

Nah. We have a genuine chance of top four if we can get a new keeper and get and keep Holgate fit. We will win the league cup on the bridle anyway.

I’d have us 3rd favourites for the next World Cup at the moment mate.

Such a glass half empty statement...

Cups are a depth game and our depth showed up last game. When the cup reaches advanced stages where it isn’t midweek, you go all in.

Edit; Put out a team good enough to beat the opposition on the day
Feed in 1st teamers as the quality of the opposition gets better.

Think we need to protect proper first 11 players so they'll be fresher for next season's long Champion's League campaign.

The quickest route into Europe.

Coming top 4 dosent go in a trophy cabinet.

 

[messymascot]

Win the lot get the early rounds of this out the way with the back up players. If we get to semi go full strength and hopefully with other clubs having other priorities we can win it.

 

[Eggsyblueskin]

Most seasons the teams contesting the top of the table are the ones that win the league cup, if you’re not good enough to do that you probably won’t lift the cup however much you attempt to ‘prioritise’ it.

 

[barneygumble]

I think having watched the Arsenal game yesterday, I’m really hoping Hull pull their fingers out tbh.

West Ham actually looked decent and I don’t need a full XI starting 3 games in a week.

 

[Terrarian]

Too right I want more.

This is the FA Cup, we've never won the League cip for a photo opportunity so yes, i very much want to win it.
