It's a big deal for a club like Rangers who play in a small league.
For big teams, in big leagues, it's not a major competition. For a PL team, the only major competitions are the triple crown titles.
Tbh though, all the UEFA comps seem to be on their last legs, even the CL.
For me, like the saying goes "Beggars can't be choosers" and in trophy terms we are the real beggars so I would take it!
I would take all the cup, heck!
Even the Audi cup being a Spurs
West Ham loved it, Rangers and Frankfurt are enjoying themselves.
Chelsea and United have won this trophy recently, it’s worth winning and we need to be winning trophies now.
A Euro conference final against Roma would have been something to look forward to also.
The problem is, getting top 4 will cement in some minds that we were right to bin off Europe this year
Id be well chuffed if Leeds got into the Europa league. Pity we didn't under Bielsa when we we were good. Could have gone pretty far last season. Even the Europa conference would be good for the likes of us, Brighton, Palace. Everton, Villa etc
Probably should be trying to win it given your trophy haul

The arrogance
As a Man United fan, I'd obviously prefer us to be in the CL but if we're in the Europa League next year, I hope we try to win it. You get CL football for winning it for one thing. The Conference is a different matter and I'd be happy for us just to bin that asap.
My biggest issue is the Thursday-Sunday schedule. Just purely from a selfish point of view, I like to have a drink when watching our weekend games and Sundays don't really lend themselves to that as readily as Saturdays

It should be a big competition for arsenal though, they ain’t winning anything anytime soon.
its always been a decent cup for those not in the cl or winning league titles, even more so now theres cl place for winning it.

What? We’ve won 2 titles just within the last 2 years; beating City and Liverpool in those respective finals.
Overall we’ve won 8 titles in the last 8 years, including 4 triple crown titles (which are obviously bigger than the Europa).
Europa is a proper competition these days since they gave the CL place back to the winners.
I think it’s still quite a good one to win overall, you get CL and sometimes do have to play some strong teams to win it. The group stages and early knockout are a bit of a drag though, so it’s quite hard to care about it then. It also depends on how your season is going as well though, if you find yourself secure in top 4, or going for a title, I don’t think you’d be bothered about winning it. Would feel much more league cup levels

Yep. And as United are unlikely to be winning any of the "bigger" competitions any time soon, I certainly won't be turning my nose up at it

TBH, I think every team no matter who they are should be trying to win EVERY trophy the enter & was right pee'd off when Liverpool used to go out of the domestic cups early due to lack of squad depth.
Anybody who thinks a trophy is beneath their team deserves to NEVER see their team win a trophy.

Well, being one of the few actual scousers on this site, I was never going to be supporting Spurs was I?
You aren't even the smartest person YOU know are you?
I'm fairly sure you probably have a close relatation younger than 5 years of age smarter than yourself.
British teams in general have been terrible at this competition. Is it only Chelsea that have won it?
But yeah we have particularly underachieved in it. To not even make a semi-final when West Ham and Fulham have tells you everything.
Rangers v Frankfurt was a bit of a left field final 2 when you see the likes of Barca, Dortmund, Leipzig, Leverkusen, West Ham in it.
Surely an English side will win it sooner rather than later.....

Not like its easy to win it but as a manager you should try as the fans will love you for it.
Giving the fans a final is special to them regardless of what it is
