Is it bad that I don't care about the cups

Page 2 of 3

posted on 22/1/21

You'll smash us at the weekend, because Klopp hasn't ever once paid any respect to the domestic cups in his time here and right now at full strength you're the better side anyway.

So, I don't care about the cups

You are not in the CL so should take FA cup seriously. Jack the Europa league cos that could impact league with this so called psychological Thurs-Sunday game turnover.

big clubs win that when they're in it
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Don’t you have only one double in your entire history?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
your point being...?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
My point being that I wouldn’t class chelsea as a small club I’d take your league success in the last 15 years over less success but more cups

Read that three times that made no sense to me at all...

what I was saying was when the likes of us and United find themselves in the lower European Cup you need to win it... Irrespective of any league success

Sorry I misinterpreted what you were saying. Still disagree on the EL as it’s not that easy to win and the priority is the league.

I care about the cups if we win them. I do not care about the cups if we are out of them. I care only about the Community Shield.

Oh yeah the pointless plate in a 2 horse race is essential

He went being serious. You have been had.

It is amazing how the Barry line still gets people on the hook.

I'm with the OP. I only ever drink out of bottles.

United used to go for everything.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
i wonder if there's anything about united - or football in general - that might be different this season, possibly unique? anyone got any ideas?
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Every big team in the same boat. You sack off the cups if you want.

Given your record vs the big 6 this season, I would not blame you for putting out a 2nd string, at least then you have an excuse if you do not win another big tie.

yes, that's definitely what we'll do, we'll play a team not to win the match, or to give first teamers a rest, or squad players a game, but solely to give us an excuse if we don't win.

It makes total sense to sacrifice the FA Cup, I agree. We need to get this title over the line and being in another competition with even more games is dangerous. Let Liverpool have their day on Sunday, United have bigger fish to fry. No doubt all of their players will perform out of their skins, as it's always their big cup final anyway.

Bruno will play vs Liverpool, as will most first choice players imo. We might rest him vs Sheff U though.

It’ll depend how much confidence Ole has in the squad to manage multiple competitions, and to compete for the title.

Fergie would prioritise the league and CL, but with good reason. Ole’s taken the cups seriously, and spoken plenty of how important they are for him, so I think even with some rotation he won’t just sack them off.

I think we'll go pretty strong after LFC's defeat last night.

We do have the luxury of five subs on Sunday too so that means we can use the squad so that certain players aren't overplayed. If our 'main' matchwinners get 90 mins or between both LFC and Sheff Utd games it's not too much before Arsenal IMO.

As the comment is in line with the rest of your efforts today then I will take them as not being serious as well,

Thanks for your input though,

Liverpool have Spurs next in the league, so may have an eye on that with their team selection. I’d make quite a few changes for that game, and if we need to look to the bench we can.

Imagine we beat Sheff U, making them 9 points behind us before they face Spurs the day after. Good job they're mentality monsters.

They could well beat Spurs of course but Jose will know exactly what to do in that game. He'll love being stubborn.

If we score against Spurs I'd be absolutely shocked.

Liverpool have a decent record in the bigger games this season. And they always beat Spurs. I think they’ll win that one.

Wish I could remember with whom I made the name change bet about Spurs finishing below us a couple of months ago.

The Spurs fans never, ever learn. You can point out to them exactly what has happened in previous years when they’ve got over excited in November, and they’ll completely ignore you.

Then along comes the spring and they realise their club is 15pts off the pace and they start beating themselves up about not learning the lessons of (many) recent seasons.

Come the next autumn they repeat exactly the same behaviour.

I think my memory is bad, but those guys’ amnesia is spectacular.

This bloke Devonshirespur, wasn’t it?

He’s a Mourinho cultist, though. Which tells you everything.
