I really can't imagine that Levy is spending all this money on Mourinho to achieve Europa League again

Gezza-Spurs. I doubt Jose will favour one or the other, or at least not yet. He is a manager that has been well used to chasing more than one trophy a season, so with a fully fit squad, no reason to sacrifice anything just yet. Obviously if CL qualification via a top four place, is out of reach completely, and say Spurs are in a Europa semi or Final, then he would obviously prioritise Europa.

At this moment in time though I expect Jose to field strong teams in both competitions.

I don't think anyone is advocating for playing the U23s in the League tbf

I agree Sandy.

I'm not sure what comments you've read Gazza? I saw one saying 'I'm not bothered about the league' I kind of see the the logic in that. Winning the Europa is better than just finishing 4th, and obviously we get CL anyway.

Our key players are playing 3 games a week and will do for a while yet.. if it comes down to it I'd rather have Toby/Bale/Hojbjerg fully fit for a latter stages cup game even if it meant resting them in the league.

I agree with you and you make complete sense. I suppose my point is that the same people that say "I'm not bothered about the league" are the same ones that will be spitting feather if/when we drop points in the league!

You mentioned that people want us to give up on the League, I assumed giving up would involve us no longer using our first team squad at the very least

We should be aiming to win every game between now and the end of the season, none of this well we might beat em. Loads of points up for grabs and 2 cups.

I would agree with this as long as everyone in the squad is fit.
However, Bale and Kane are both prone to injuries.
Should that happen, expect to see Mourinho prioritize the competitions, with Europa first.
